Chef and Pizzaiolo Nadia Minniti, owner of Gusto Napoletano Italian restaurant and pizzeria in Fayetteville has been named one of the 10 women in pizza to watch in 2024 in the US.  She has been featured in the March issue of PMQ Pizza magazine, a nationwide trade publication for pizza operators.  Chef Minniti is at the forefront of the Women in Pizza movement, a knowingly male-dominated field.

Chef Minniti has dedicated her life to food history and the historical tradition of Neapolitan pizza, becoming a certified VPN pizzaiolo in 2017 and opening Gusto Napoletano in 2019, where she celebrates not only the famous wood-fired Neapolitan pizza, but Neapolitan and Italian cuisine in general.  Her attention to choosing only high quality ingredients, most coming directly from Italy, and educating the public in what authentic Neapolitan cuisine is, makes her restaurant one of a kind.
