The concept
Pizza should make a noise. Ours snaps in two in the middle of the table, gets passed around and finished together. Crisp outside, soft inside. Don't call it pizza by the slice.
Crisp outside
Soft inside
Our signature
Roasted tomato cream, garlic oil and mountain oregano. Finished at the pass: yellow tomato coulis, red semi-dried cherry tomato and basil gel.
The formats
First decide how many of you there are, then pick the recipe. The price is always for the whole pizza, never per person.

Pizza baked in the pan, from old Neapolitan tradition. High, crisp crust and a soft heart. Some recipes come with the crust filled.
For when you want it all to yourself. Same dough, same crunch, single size.
