Fugazza (from Genoese: fugassa) is a common type of Argentine pizza, originating in Buenos Aires, that consists of a thick pizza crust topped with onions and sometimes olives. A similar variant known as fugazza con queso or fugazzetta includes cheese along with the aforementioned ingredients.^[1] It is derived from a combination of Neapolitan pizza with Italian focaccia bread.

Fugazza and its variations are believed to have been invented sometime between 1893 and 1932 by a Genoese-Argentine pizza maker named Juan Banchero, who served it out of a pizza shop bearing his name. Banchero's pizza shop continues to sell fugazza to this day in the Buenos Aires neighborhood of La Boca, which historically served as a home to Genoese immigrants to Argentina.^[2]
