Time Out has released its first ever ranking of the World’s Best Cities for Food according to locals, with Naples taking the crown as the world’s food capital.  To compile the list, Time Out – the global brand that inspires and enables people to experience the best of the city – surveyed thousands of people around the world about food in their city. Each city was ranked on how locals rated the quality and affordability of their food scene, and they were also asked about their favourite restaurants, must-try specialities and best-value dishes. Time Out editors included only the highest-scoring city for each country to ensure the list reflects culinary cities globally.  Naples is a city with a diverse cuisine that celebrates simplicity, where land, sea and history meet. The city is, after all, the birthplace of pizza – you’ll find iterations of this staple dish all over the city – but offers so much more when it comes to culinary experiences. Locals named pizza a portafoglio the city’s best-value food, a grab-and-go folded slice that costs around €1 a pop. It’s not just pizza that Neapolitans love; there are also piping hot plates of pasta alla genovese, Neapolitan ragù or the sugar rush from ricotta-filled sfogliatella or rum-soaked babà. Unsurprisingly however, locals named pizza margherita – invented in Naples according to legend – as the city’s must-eat dish. Next on the list is Johannesburg, South Africa. While Cape Town might steal the limelight for its international cuis
