The America's Plate is an International Culinary Pizza Competition that is held in New York City every March at PMQ’s New York Pizza Show (www.newyorkpizzashow.com).   The trophy "Plate" currently resides in France with the 2007 America’s Plate winner Fabien Martin, who was awarded the coveted prize for being judged the Best Pizza in the World after defeating the other six competing countries, which included the two-time undefeated Team Australia.

Each participating country has a structure of sanctioned competitions from which the best pizza team emerges. All the teams then converge on New York to battle for the chance to take home the prize.   The participating countries for 2007 were United States, Canada, China (unable to attend due to time constraints with visa applications), France, Spain, Australia, Italy, Luxembourg and New Zealand.

Who will be taking home the America's Plate this year?   Will it be you?
