#PizzaBanchero

In 1893 from Genoa, Don Agustin Banchero arrives at the port of Buenos Aires.

Like most Genoese immigrants, he settled in the neighborhood of La Boca. Don Agustin set up a bakery on Olavarria Street, where his son Juan works.

In that bakery called Riachuelo, FUGAZZA CON QUESO was born, a specialty that made history in culinary art. On March 28, 1932 Juan Banchero became independent from the paternal business and, together with his sons Tito and Antonio, inaugurated the traditional

PIZZERIA BANCHERO in the same corner of Boquense where it is still functioning today.

This site became a meeting place for artists of the time: the painter Quinquela Martin (great friend of the banchero family) Luis Sandrini, Tita Merello, Eva Duarte de Peron "Evita", Tomas Simari and many others. Currently, the new generations of the Banchero family continue to lead the pizzerias, to provide an excellent service and ensure the continuity of the quality that made this pizzeria famous since the beginning .

For all this, Banchero pizzerias are an unmissable place to know for its history and its exquisite pizzas.
