If you're a fan of St. Louis style pizza, you MUST go to Pirrone's next time you're in town. For those of you who have not had the joy of partaking in this local fare, St. Louis style pizza is one that just about eliminates the crust altogether. By forgoing the thick and doughy crusts of cities to the north, we were way ahead of the low-carb craze by slapping piles of toppings on top of a cracker-thin, crispy, crunchy crust.
Usually loaded with high-blood-pressure-inducing, sodium-laden provel cheese and as much meat and veggies as possible, we in St. Louis have produced a pie that would make Dr. Atkins proud. Every once in awhile Bill Sr. pops up to Florissant to pick up this delectable treat, and today he indulged us with this delicacy. He was definitely the hero in the office.
