SEMO

Semo is Reffen's pizzeria and Roman retreat. It is run by two maestros, Manu and Andre, whose mission is to make and serve excellent pizza.

Manu is the duo's pizzaiolo. Before coming to Copenhagen and Reffen, he worked his magic in pizzerias in his native Rome.

To say that Manu is dedicated to his craft is definitely not an understatement. He never compromises when it comes to craftsmanship and ingredients. His dough rises to perfection (it takes at least 48 hours), he adds a bit of olive oil (they do that in Rome) and all the ingredients come from the area around Naples - the motherland of pizza and where Manu's father is from.

Manu prides himself on making his pizzas crispy on the outside, soft on the inside and, of course, with leopard spots on il cornicione (the crust).

At Semo, he makes classics like the Margherita and his own creations that take pizza to new, flavourful heights.
