Pizzeria L'Operetta is running this special right now, charging nearly twice the price of their normal margherita on the basis of better ingredients: cheese from Campania, tomatoes from Japan, and olive oil from (somewhere in) Italy. The differences in cheese and tomatoes were obvious at first bite, with a rich milky cheese and super sweet tomatoes. But I couldn't really taste the difference in olive oil, perhaps because I was hoping for a punchy Sicilian one. Sure, I guess it was worth the difference in price, but I'm not going out of my way for it again. Even their cheapest pizza is still pretty darned good.
