Tourist-facing pizza in Naples

A substantial part of the pizza trade in Naples' historic centre serves visitors, is marketed heavily on the royal-visit Margherita legend, and involves queues and set expectations that residents largely do not participate in. This is a real and legitimate trade — but it is not evidence of what Neapolitans themselves do.
