La Cascina Peguche
La Cascina Peguche is the BEST pizzeria in Otavalo and one of the only wood-fired ovens in the north of the country.
Eating a Neapolitan pizza is not always easy in Ecuador, many make a pizza with super thick dough (in the style of the U.S. adaptation of pizza) and with lots of cheese and toppings that in the end you eat 2 slices and get full. NO, this is not the original pizza, it is Neapolitan, and you can eat one for yourself, all by yourself.
Neapolitan-style pizza: the favorite of true pizza lovers is like specialty coffee for coffee lovers. And if you've never tried a real Italian-style pizza, come to La Cascina in Peguche that will teach you a good lesson. Thin and crispy dough, quality ingredients, and of course cooked in a WOODEN OVEN in less than 2 minutes. I recommend "la corte" with serrano ham, arugula and parmesan.
Concept of La Cascina Peguche
Preserving the true Italian tradition of pizza making. And I swear they succeeded.
A small, simple, but cozy place, with the wood oven as a fundamental part of the place in front of the entrance door. A menu with 17 pizze and 2 calzone (pie-shaped pizza) but you can ask for what you like and they will surely make it for you.

Best wood-fired pizza
We loved that they cook the pizza in a wood-fired oven, which is very difficult to find in Ecuador, and it has become a favorite place because of this detail.
