Banchero
Fugazetta
![](/images/new_fh/badges/Origin.png)
Augustin Banchero immigrated from Genoa in 1893 to Buenos Aires to open a bakery in "La Boca" called Richuelo with his son Juan. Here it is believed the legendary Fugazetta was invented as a derivative of the famous Genovese focaccia. The story goes that Juan cut an onion focaccia in half and added cheese because he thought it was too dry. Banchero is a cornerstone of world pizza history.
