EZ Pizza EZ Fun

I discovered a neat new pizza palace by me yesterday. It’s different than all the million of other pizza places in my area for three reasons. One it offers individual serving pizzas, two there’s a huge choice of toppings and three it has whole wheat crusts. The name is EZ Pizza and it’s just starting on it’s way to be coming a chain here .

Individual pizzas are nothing new. Roman trattorias have been offering them for decades. I had my first experience with one there. However EZ Pizza gives a different spin on this Neopolitan classic with homemade focaccio in three styles, whole wheat (excellent), classic and thin crust. The owner and founder Mark Albunia put the second new twist by offering pizza lovers a choice of fifty toppings plus four cheeses. You can get anything from banana peppers to anchovies to pineapple on yours or a million different combinations. I just had my pizza with extra sauce and mozzarella cheese. It was sheer perfection! Another good point of it is that your pizza only takes three minutes to bake up You can get it with a customized salad or a choice of soup. Their prices aren’t bad at all.

EZ Pizza also does interesting combos such as their Mexican style pizza. This is not for the faint hearted. it’s mesquite chicken, hot cherry pepper bacon bits and onion. There’s also Buffalo chicken complete with, chicken fiery hot sauce and bleu cheese Of course there is the calm, classic Pizza Margherita which has fresh basil or the bruschetta which as fresh chopped onion and tomato on it.

If you’re in the Lodi, Hasbrouck Heights or Pequannock, New Jersey area, stop for a customized pizza at EZ Pizza. This is pizza to your liking. it’s also one of the best pies around!
