Cut me a slice

On December 12, 2023 the Philippine pizzeria Crosta proudly introduced a brand new concept and opened the doors of its first international location with Baby Crosta making its debut on Niseko's snowy slopes. Baby Crosta is different in that instead of made-to-order pizzas, they will be offering an ultra-quick service concept serving high-quality Roman-style pizza-by-the-slice or pizza al taglio. Also opening soon on the second floor of their location is a premium pizza omakase experience, where chef Yuichi Ito will be at the helm of the 8-seater counter.

More from this week’s lineup:

• Tanaw El Nido by chef Robby Goco opens its doors
• 4 top bartending talents in the Philippines share their take on the umami cocktail craze
• Personalise your Moët & Chandon bottles at their new holiday pop-up
• Learn how to film better Foodstagram reels
