The
Ferguson House rap around town, and I understand that the chef salad is excellent. There’ s also a first-rate Greek salad with Feta cheese and Kalmatra olives.
Lurking among the appetizers are some freshbaked concoctions called“ garlic knots”— house-made dough tied in a knot and drizzled with garlic butter and sprinkled with Parmesan cheese—“ soon to be world famous,” according to the menu.
I was delighted to find a full complement of calzones, those stuffed crust pockets of meaty and cheesy goodness, on the menu. There were so many, it was hard to know where to start.
A simple cheese calzone, stuffed with Mozzarella and Ricotta is near perfection, but why not add spinach to that pie? You know that Popeye would. How about ham and cheese, or the“ meat lovers”’ zone with pepperoni, sausage, bacon, and ham? Or even a Buffalo chicken calzone with hot sauce and crushed red pepper, chicken, bacon, and mozzarella?
It’ s so hard to choose— one of the few drawbacks to an evening at Brozinni.
I settled on the classic Stromboli with pepperoni, sausage, bacon, ham, mozzarella, mushrooms, black olives, green peppers, and red onions.
I left it to my lovely and charming spouse to choose a pizza, even though I feared she would break my iron-clad rule of always ordering exactly the same pizza for purposes of comparison with all previously eaten pizzas. I’ ve learned a lot from married life.
You can order regular crust or“ grandma’ s pie” crust in a 16 or 20 inch pie with your choice from among 18 toppings. Just a word to the wise here— you’ re going to want more pizza than you think, because it is utterly delicious.
