Description

Musician Bill Coury quit his day job to focus on his family-friendly pizza joint, which looks like it was lifted straight from the Ave, with walls painted harlot red, thrift-store abstracts, and a guitar-heavy soundtrack. Coury's 15-inch pies-from the simple pepperoni to more froufrou ones with goat cheese, zucchini, and roasted red peppers-are thoroughly enjoyable for one reason: Coury knows that the toppings, no matter how much effort he puts into buying local and organic, are disposable. The crust is king. And he's got a good one: solid enough to support sauce and a few toppings without caving at the center, solid enough to crease and crack when you pick up a wedge, and still bubbly and airy around the lip.
