In celebration of World Pizza Day, chef-restaurateur Johnny Di Francesco is giving away free pizzas at his 400 Gradi outpost in Mornington.

He’ll be working a pop-up outside the restaurant in partnership with Thermomix, using the Ovana pizza oven to make the free pizzas. Get your pick of either the award-winning margherita or the diavolo with hot salami for free.

One of my favourite "Italian style" pizza places in Victoria that I've been going to for years (Brunswick). Mornington is blessed to have DOC and 400 Gradi across the street from each other.

25 Main Street, Mornington

    How many pizzas can the the Ovana pizza oven make in an hour?

      How long does one pizza take? It seems only one pizza can fit at a time.

      Think I've got better things to do with my time than stand in a queue for hours waiting for an Ovana Pizza oven to churn out 10 slices at a time.

        90 seconds max at the right temperature

      According to the marketing material for the Ovana oven it states "approximately 60 seconds" so realistically I'd say 40 pizzas in an hour is achievable with some effort.

      If they have 2 $589 pizza ovens set up, pushing out a hot pizza every 60 seconds (as per the thermomix website) and a team of people pressing dough and making them, it would make for a very impressive bit of marketing for an appliance being released later this month. I can only imagine other restaurants being the ones willing to shell out for one though.. otherwise they're marketing it to you and me - either way it makes their pizza shop a bit redundant by undermining themselves.

    Oh so that's what went in across from DOC. Haven't been down that end of the street in ages.

      Didn't see any liver on the menu, but they might do liver as a special.

    Tried one of their shrink wrapped pizzas from Coles (on clearance for $1).. found it very average. Dry and not much flavour. I make much better pizzas with Caputo flour in my Coles Monro pizza oven. Sure the restaurant is probably much better, but now I know how easy it is to make proper Neapolitan pizza I can't justify the expense of takeaway.

      I tried one of their pizzas from coles also , the 400 Gradi pizza is not designed (modified) to be vac packed and refridgerated …… the Aldi plain bases (just tomato and cheese on the base) which is made in Italy is better, I usually add some extras of course …

    Dont know about Ovana ovens but 400 Gradi had one of the best margharita pizzas in australia

  • sh4hp on 08/02/2022 - 19:53

    I've never gone to one of this free pizza events.

    Do they give you a full pizza, or one slice?

  • firexbug on 08/02/2022 - 19:58

    Do you have to line up for it?

      Maybe, I've been to a similar event before by a competitor so it could be a bull-rush free for all. I do not recommend bringing anyone below 6.5 feet tall to events by other businesses as the risk of getting trampled to death was quite high at a separate event I went to. It got so bad riot control was called in and there were multiple casualties.

      Eventually, noon came around and it was about that time that I notice that a nearby girl scout was about eight stories tall and was a crustacean from the Paleozoic era and I realised I was looking into the eyes of the Loch Ness monster.

    Just went there. There's more marketing than pizza. Lined up for 10 minutes to get a small slice. Only 1 oven turned on too. If you're walking by anyway, it's worth a shot but not travelling to. The oven seems to cook pizzas every 2 minutes or so.

      Was it good?
      If you had the Margherita, would you say it was deserving of the award?
