Food Network superstar Guy Fieri makes second trip to North Palm Beach pizzeria
Can't get enough of the good stuff!
It would seem that the pizza at Venezia Italian Pizza and Ristorante in North Palm Beach has made an impression on Food Network superstar and part-time Palm Beach County resident Guy Fieri.
Stopping by on Tuesday, Feb. 27 and even doing a short video with Venezia chef Albert, this was Guy Fieri's second trip to the much-loved restaurant.
Chef Albert said this time Fieri was with four friends and he made them one of their signature pizzas, the white pizza, which features ricotta and mozzarella cheese with garlic, oregano and extra virgin olive oil, and one cheese pizza.
Though it was his second time meeting Fieri, he laughed and said he was nervous before adding that Fieri was an "old fashion, very normal guy."
Fieri stopped by back in December for a couple slices of pizza with his oldest son Hunter after they had been shopping at a nearby business.
At the time, Vogli joked that at first he didn't recognize Fieri and it wasn't until one of the waitresses said "That's Guy Fieri" that he realized who it was.

He laughed and said that when Fieri first looked up at him "I thought he was looking for Parmigiano."
This time around Fieri shot a quick video singing chef Albert's praises saying "he makes his dough, he makes his sauce, he makes everything from scratch" and even adding "this guy's the real deal."
The family-owned and operated Venezia has been in business since 1987.
