Cibo’s Spicy New Pizza Reminds Us Why They're Among the World’s Best

(SPOT.ph) When a dining spot has a Best Artisan Pizza Chains in the World award to their name, you just feel reassured that they know what they're doing when it comes to the dish. Italian restaurant chain Cibo, which secured 44th place in 50 Top Pizza's list in 2024, continues to prove its pizza game is top tier with its new creation, the Salamino Piccante.

Meet Cibo's new pizza, the Salamino Piccante

Launched in January 2025, Cibo's Salamino Piccante (P799) is Cibo's latest bold and flavorful addition to its pizza library. Much like any other Italian dish, this pizza is straightforward and simple. The menu reads: tomatoes, mozzarella, chili pepper flakes—a classic trio that always works, but once you take a bite of it, there are more layers to it than meets the eye. 

The sweet cherry tomatoes are softened from the heat of baking the pizza, and there's a generous amount of smoky pepperoni slices on top. And while we will always recommend ordering Cibo's house-blend iced tea, this pizza has just the right amount of heat from the flakes that won't make you want to gulp an excessive amount of five to 10 glasses.

Cibo is a homegrown restaurant chain known for their great Italian fare by Chef Margarita Forés. They were established in 1997. Cibo's first-ever branch was an open-air café designed by Jorge Yulo, originally located at Glorietta 3; they moved to Glorietta 4 home by 1998. To this day they're known for their pasta, pizza, and other Italian bites made with great-quality ingredients.
