The Pizza Purist in Me is On Vacation
So I normally like simple pizza but there is one complex pie I need to pay homage to.
It's the Pizza Caruso from Francoluigi's Pizzeria on 13 th & Tasker.
It's Chicken breast with onions, peppers, and mushrooms all cooked in wine sauce "to perfection" (as they so adequacy describe on their menu). There is only one size. It's $15.45, and they deliver, but the real magic happens when you stop by for a single slice fresh out of the oven and enjoy it at one of their outdoor tables.
The crust is what sets it apart from the rest and they have a whole theory behind what "makes it good". Asking them about it and getting their prideful, hyper-protective answer is always a good time.
Oh yeah, and it is also the place where the owner sings opera if you sit in the dining room but I have never actually had the pleasure so tag... you're it.
