They say that when in Rome, you should do as the Romans do. So when in the Golden State, we suggest that you check out the deliciously tasty, California-style pizza. It is believed that this type of pizza was simultaneously created by the Prince of Pizza, Ed LaIt’sDou, and Alice Waters of Chez Panisse in the 1980s; a decade that was all about embracing the new. There are some that argue that it was the invention of California pizza that took our ideas about suitable toppings to the next level. This style is topped with a diverse range of fresh local and exotic ingredients, introducing toppings such as artichoke hearts, peanut sauce, chicken, and eggs. In fact, the only rule of a traditional California pizza is that it should be a personal size pizza with a thin crust. Serving up Cali sunshine on a plate, many of our Slice partners over in Santa Barbara offer their own variation of the tasty California Pizza. Order now for delivery right to your door!
