Famed pizzaiolo Tony Gemignani, founder of Tony's Pizza Napoletana in San Francisco and the Slice House by Tony Gemignani brand, has taken to the high seas in partnership with Princess Cruises. Gemignani has created five artisan pizzas for the cruise line, according to a press release.

Gemignani's offerings will debut at Alfredo's onboard the new Sun Princess. Princess chefs have received training under the guidance of Gemignani to ensure they can replicate his pizza.

"Princess is about delivering great experiences and there is no more important element than pizza. While Princess has long been known for having the best pizza at sea, we decided to take it up an entirely new level with legendary Tony Gemignani," John Padgett, Princess president, said in the press release. "Tony is the 'GOAT' with unparalleled world championships, expertise and passion for crafting the perfect pizza."

"Princess is the original Love Boat and its magnificent ships are known to all the world," Gemignani added in the press release. "Bringing my original recipe hand-crafted pizzas inspired by the destinations Princess visits to the world-class line up of culinary offerings onboard its ships is not only exciting but an honor."
