Seattle, Washington - Serious Pie. I had looked into this place a week before we rolled into town, so I was looking forward to eating there. Inside was super cool, with a glass wall separating me from the kitchen where they prepared the dough. It’s wood-fired brick oven, but sliced grandma style. I wasn’t super pumped on that, as it makes it hard to eat. I went with the buffalo mozz pie, as I always fall hostage to tasting the simplicity of a perfect pizza. Overall it tasted great - had well cooked crust, & and the buffalo mozzarella was amazing. Sauce was okay. My two big pet peeves is post-salt & basil confetti - both of which were included on the pie. I like the philosophy that, you don’t need salt to enhance the flavor of what should be present in the natural favors! And I love full pieces of basil, especially when it’s cooked into the pie and infuses with the sauce. This pie was $17 dollars (what?) and after I finished and put my napkin down my waitress plopped a happy hour sign on the table that included $6 personal pies. (It was 3:03PM and it started at 3:00PM - crap!)
