Hopefully, you had a restful start to the year because February is full of National Pizza Day celebrations, sweet Valentine’s Day prix-fixe menus, and a bustling Lunar New Year bash filled with auspicious foods for the soul.
If you want to try something slightly unconventional this Pizza Day, we’ve got the pie for you. Two words: Pinsa Romana. This delicious culinary trend sweeping South Florida is an oval-shaped cloud-like Roman-style pizza with a lighter, airier, and more digestible crust. While there are already a few pizza parlors that have jumped on the bandwagon, Call Me Gaby in Miami Beach specializes in pinsa romana, and trust us, they do it right. On the menu, find rows upon rows of both miniature and full-sized gourmet pinsas. Our pick — the gourmet pinsa Rita, topped with truffle burrata (oof), assorted bosco mushrooms, sautéed mixed bell peppers, prosciutto di parma, and shaved parmesan.
Call Me Gaby is located at 22 Washington Ave, Miami Beach, FL 33139. For more information, head to their official website.
Ironside Pizza specializes in crafting authentic Neapolitan-style pizza fired up in a wood oven. They take their dough seriously, fermenting it for a total of 48 hours with just four simple ingredients: flour, salt, water, and yeast. Our top pie pick? The gourmet Tronchetto pizza. Picture this: a dough stuffed with smoked mozzarella di buffala and fior di latte, then adorned with premium prosciutto di parma, peppery arugula, juicy cherry tomatoes, and a generous sprinkle of grana padano cheese. It’s a flavor explosion that deserves a spot in the Pizza Hall of Fame. But here’s the kicker: Ironside Pizza caters to gluten-free and vegan diets, too, because, let’s face it, everyone deserves a proper slice of pizza, right?
If there is one and only one day of the year you’ll be ordering this pizzeria’s infamous Rich Kid pizza, it will probably be National Pizza Day, a day for the country’s pizza aficionados to truly go all out. The off-the-menu item doesn’t come with a small price tag. At $100 a pie, this lusciousness is a Miami baller’s dream—crafted with truffle cream, fior di latte, mushrooms, fresh black truffle, roasted hazelnuts, EVOO, and, of course, 24k plated gold.
