Pizzas
LOUISIANA HOT CHICKEN PIZZA / FINNEY ’ S CRAFTHOUSE A bit of spice is just the ticket when it comes to selecting the perfect pizza , and spice is something that Finney ’ s has definitely mastered . “ Hot chicken is a food style that is currently ‘ in ’ and we thought , instead of a Nashville hot chicken , we would make a Louisiana hot chicken pizza instead ,” says Eric BosRau , the brand ’ s corporate executive chef . The pizza crust is layered
with the chicken , shaved garlic , red and green onions , pickled cherry peppers and Finney ’ s own cheese blend , plus a Louisiana hot ranch .
BIANCO BACON ROSEMARY PIZZA / WINE GALLERY There ’ s something about a pizza with white sauce that pairs perfectly with a glass of wine . At Wine Gallery , the bianco bacon rosemary pizza features a thin layer of house-made white sauce , four different cheeses , Nueske ’ s bacon , shaved potatoes and red onion . After being cooked at 750 degrees in the restaurant ’ s wood-fired oven , it ’ s finished with fresh parsley and rosemary for an aromatic touch . Now all you have to decide is which wine to select .
ROCKPILE PIZZA / SLICE PIZZA & BEER It ’ s an age-old debate : Does pineapple belong on pizza ? Slice says yes , offering a
tasty pie covered in not only pineapple , but prosciutto , arugula , Parmigiano-Reggiano and ovalini mozzarella as well — all on a base of organic tomato sauce . Named for the north Laguna beach just steps from Heisler Park , this quintessential pizza captures the essence of our beach town with its curated toppings and balanced flavor .
