Pizzeria Napoli (Baghdad)
The Pizzeria Napoli is a pizza restaurant in Baghdad, Iraq. The owner Waleed Al Bayati (sometimes in western press as Walid Khalid) previously lived in Italy and along with his brother, set up the restaurant on Saturday, June 27, 2003 after the fall of Saddam Hussein's government after the 2003 invasion of Iraq. He made a risk business selling pizza to coalition troops, and even received a mobile phone from American forces to receive orders. The restaurant was also popular with western reporters including ''Washington Post'' bureau chief Rajiv Chandrasekaran who would order several pizzas for his staff.
Upon returning from Italy, Al Bayati rented a space on Yafa Street on the north side of the Green Zone. Although pizza was not considered popular to Iraqis, he set out to build an authentic Italian restaurant. He hired a local bricklayer to build a wood fire pizza oven, used a dairy near Abu Ghraib prison to make customized mozzarella cheese and a farmer who grew tomatoes similar to those grown in Tuscany.〔 Basil and oregano came from his own garden. The business had to endure frequent blackouts.
The restaurant suffered as the insurgency flared in Iraq and in December 2004, a suicide bomber blew up outside of coalition headquarters and severely damaged the restaurant, among other buildings nearby. After the nearby bombing, security to the street where the restaurant is located was increased. While the work environment was safer, by 2008 business was down and less reporters used it. However, the business remained open for years afterward.
