When I first heard about Rock & Brews (rockandbrews.com), this month’s cover subject (“Rockin’ in Middle America,” page 26), I rolled my eyes and thought, “Oh, jeez, not another theme restaurant!” Back in the early- to mid-1990s, I edited a national trade magazine with a focus on the nightclub, bar and restaurant industries, and theme restaurants kept cropping up everywhere like zits on a high schooler’s face before prom night. Hard Rock Café started it all, spawning imitators such as Planet Hollywood and Rainforest Café. A handful has survived to this day, although most of them never lived up to their backers’ grandiose plans for worldwide expansion.

Others suffered more ignominious fates, such as Fashion Café. Fronted by uberpopular supermodels Elle Macpherson, Claudia Schiffer, Naomi Campbell and Christy Turlington, its sole claim to fame was that, well, it was fronted by supermodels and that its primary owners, Francesco Buti and Tommaso Buti, were charged with fraud, conspiracy and money laundering just a few years after it opened in New York. Then there was the Easyrider Café, which targeted the biker subculture and featured huge HarleyDavidsons dangling from the ceilings. I have no idea what became of that one—it doesn’t even show up on Google searches anymore.

Even Steven Spielberg got suckered into the theme restaurant fad. He lent his money and reputation to Dive!, a concept with a submarine theme. Yes, you read that right—a submarine theme. Spielberg supposedly came up with the idea because, gosh darn it, the world-famous, super-rich filmmaker just couldn’t find anybody who could make a decent sandwich! Apparently he’s still looking, because Dive!, to the surprise of few, treaded water for about five years before sinking permanently.

I remember these largely forgettable concepts because I wrote about them in their short-lived heyday. So I was a little leery of Rock & Brews—which is backed by rock stars Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons of Kiss and boasts a classic rock-and-roll theme—until I noted the location of its first store: El Segundo, California. Not Las Vegas (many of the above-mentioned eateries started in Sin City) or L.A. or New York, but El Segundo, with a population of 16,600 hard-working souls. Although it has become increasingly corporatized in recent years, El Segundo has long been representative of small-town USA—cozy, quaint and decidedly blue-collar. It’s not a place that draws tourists by the droves, but then again, that’s what I like about Rock & Brews itself: As co-owner Michael Zislis notes, it’s “a local family beer garden” with an emphasis on music, sports, food, beer and family togetherness—not necessarily in that order. There’s a supervised play area for kids, and you can even bring your pet beagle and order from the doggie menu.

Since opening in 2010, Rock & Brews has expanded to a couple of decidedly less all-American locales, including Los Cabos, Mexico, and Paia, Hawaii, but the owners make it clear they’re far more interested in Middle America. And from the menu and pricing to the entertainment, they’ve tailored their concept to appeal to everyday moms and dads, kids, beer aficionados, sports fans, dog lovers…how much more all-American can you get?

I look forward to seeing how this concept progresses in the coming years. It’s refreshing to see that some celebrities—even makeup-wearing, tongue-wagging rockers like Stanley and Simmons—understand that “Middle America” is a real place, too, and that it deserves their attention.

Memories of the Think Tank I have been feeling nostalgic lately. I’m coming up on the 10th anniversary of signing my lease and jumping head-first into the pizza business. So I decided to check out the archived version of the PMQ Think Tank. It was 10 years ago that I first found the Think Tank and starting reading…and reading…and reading. I went into this business with somebody who had pizza experience, but aside from being a delivery driver at one point in college, I knew nothing about it! I was a 24-year-old kid working in finance with a girlfriend, and I was considering entering the pizza business. Today I’m a seasoned pizzeria operator, and I’m married to that girlfriend, with two kids, less hair and a not-insignificant amount of gray in my beard, and I dare say I’ve become a man in that time. I think I’ve nearly seen it all, but I’m certain the next 10 years will prove me wrong. Experience has a funny way of making you feel like an idiot!

pizza press news & views

More than just a pizza-themed museum, Pizza Brain, founded by Brian Dwyer (right), is also gaining a reputation for serving great pies.

Pizza Brain Celebrates 1st Anniversary Half-museum and half-pizzeria, Pizza Brain (pizzabrain.org) in Philadelphia is greater than the sum of its parts—it’s a full-fledged pizza experience featuring wall-to-wall pizza-related memorabilia and, according to Philadelphia Magazine, “inventive and frequently terrific pizza.” So it’s no wonder that Pizza Brain’s first anniversary earned citywide press coverage in early September. The event, hailed by manager Steph Irwin as a major success, featured juggling, fire breathing, an appearance by Splinter from the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movies and some mood-setting tunes by a band called Pizza Face.

A Slice, a Beer and an Emmy Hard to believe that Bob Newhart recently won his first Emmy (for a guest appearance on The Big Bang Theory) after more than a half-century in showbiz, but he knew just how to celebrate the win. Back at the Bel-Air hotel after the ceremony, Newhart told The Hollywood Reporter, he and his wife "each had a beer and piece of pizza." And, unlike the finale of Newhart’s last TV series, the couple did not wake up the next morning to realize it had all been just a dream.

Pizza On Steroids

Joe Abate, owner of Luigi’s Apizza, shows off his three-layered pizza, which comes loaded with meats and cheeses.

16 PMQ Pizza Magazine The Pizza Industry’s Business Monthly

Imagine a “pizza on steroids,” and what do you envision? It might look like the Triple Decker Italian Combo Fried Pie at Luigi’s Apizza (luigisapizza.com) in North Haven, Connecticut. Owner Joe Abate starts out with three lightly fried 12” pizza doughs and then piles on the cheese and toppings. The first layer features provolone and salami; the second layer consists of American cheese and pepperoni; and the third layer comes with sliced tomatoes, basil, garlic and olive oil topped with Pecorino Romano. “We stack these layers and bake them in our pizza oven at 575° until they’re crispy, then cut them down with a butcher knife,” Abate says. “We get eight cuts for a 12” pie. It’s very filling and tasty.

“We’ve been making these for some friends and regular customers to get their opinions, which have all been positive,” Abate continues, noting that he also offers the Triple Decker in lasagna form. If the pizza passes muster with guests, it may even be entered into Luigi’s Book of Pies, a compendium that appears alongside the menu at every table spotlighting Abate’s most popular specialty pies.

The World’s Fastest Delivery Person By the end of this year’s NFL season, some lucky Washington Redskins fan will open his door to find star wide receiver Pierre Garcon with a pizza in his hand. And he’ll have Paisano’s Pizza (pizzapaisanos.com), with locations in Virginia and Maryland, to thank for it. In the promotion, the customer that orders the most Paisano’s food throughout the regular season will get a personal delivery by Garcon, billed as “the fastest delivery person in the world.” Orders will be tracked according to phone number and can be placed from a residence or an office on any day of the week.

A Fresh Concept

Papa Murphy’s sports an entirely new look with its CREATE store in Austin, Texas.

Papa Murphy's (papamurphys.com) is cashing in on the popular to-go market concept with a new design: CREATE stores, with digital menu boards and a grab 'n' go Murphy's Market. The stores pay homage to the "build-your-own" trend by offering an open layout that showcases the dough prep area, hand-chopped vegetable toppings and freshly grated mozzarella, allowing guests to see their pizzas being created right before their eyes. The first CREATE location opened in Austin, Texas, in September, with more expected to come through new franchisees and redesigns of existing Papa Murphy's locations.

Celebratory Slices Over two days in September, residents of the Big Apple were treated to free pizza as two of the biggest names in the industry celebrated company milestones.

Pizza Hut (pizzahut.com) hosted The World's Greatest Pizza Party in Times Square on September 8, celebrating both the kickoff of the 2013 football season and the brand's 55th anniversary by serving 5,500 cheese and pepperoni slices (whipped up in mobile kitchens) to hungry fans. But an even bigger celebration happened in the social media sphere, as the company also hosted a "virtual pizza party" on Twitter, giving away free pizza to followers using the hashtag #WorldsGreatestPizzaParty.

Meanwhile, Famous Famiglia (famousfamiglia.com) celebrated its journey from 324-square-foot Manhattan hole-in-the-wall to worldwide sensation on September 9 with the 27th Anniversary Celebration Day at its original location. The event kicked off with a special performance by the NYPD Pipes and Drums Band, then continued with free pizza from 12 to 2 p.m.—with 100% of the entire day's sales donated to the D.A.R.E America organization.

For its 55th birthday, Pizza Hut gave away 5,500 slices at the so-called World’s Greatest Pizza Party in Times Square.

in lehmann’s terms tom “the dough doctor” lehmann

Creating a Crispy Cracker Crust Tom “The Dough Doctor” Lehmann shares his secret for achieving crispiness in a Chicago-style thin cracker crust.

By Tom Lehmann

QUESTION: I read somewhere that you developed a thin Chicago-style cracker crust that maintains a crispy texture throughout the entire bottom of the pizza, not just the corners of slices. What is the best way to achieve that level of crispiness?

ANSWER: We developed this method a good number of years ago. It came about because certain operators liked the Chicagostyle thin-crust pizza, but their customers, most of whom didn’t hail from the Windy City, demanded a crispier crust.

This crust utilizes a flour with 11.5% to 12.8% protein content. Flour with a higher protein content can be used, but it may pose some difficulties in sheeting the dough without tearing.

Formulation:

Water: (variable) 45% (80° to 85°F) Yeast (IDY): 0.3% Oil: 8% Flour: 100% Salt: 1.5% Sugar (optional): 1.5% Procedure:

Add water, instant dry yeast and oil to the mixing bowl and mix together for 2 minutes. Add the flour and salt (and sugar, if used) and mix for 2 additional minutes at low speed. The resulting

dough will appear very rough and shaggy. (Don’t worry; this is how it’s supposed to look!) Take the dough directly to the bench and scale into 400g pieces for 12” crusts or 510g pieces for 16” crusts. Push the dry flour and wet pieces of dough together to form a puck shape.

Place the dough pucks onto a lightly floured sheet pan and wrap with plastic, or insert into a food contact-approved plastic bag. Take the dough pieces to the cooler and allow to hydrate/ferment for at least 24 hours. After that, remove the dough from the cooler and allow it to warm at room temperature for about 2 hours. Sheet the dough using multiple passes through a dough sheeter/roller to give a rounded shape about 3/16” in thickness. Dock the dough sheet with a pizza docker and drape the dough over a baking disk or screen, using a dull knife or metal blade bench scraper to trim off the excess dough from around the edges.

The dough can be dressed to order and baked now, or it can be par-baked for about 2 minutes and then dressed to order. The first method works well for dine-in, while the second (par-baking)

18 PMQ Pizza Magazine The Pizza Industry’s Business Monthly

gives a finished crust that is better suited to delivery and carryout as well as for use on a pizza buffet. The resulting crust is much crispier than a traditional Chicago-style thin-cracker crust.

The hardest part about making this crust is getting used to the appearance of the dough after mixing. You absolutely should not overmix the dough.

If in doubt, stop mixing earlier rather than later. For the finished dough, you should see a mix of about 25% to 30% dry material, with the remainder being partially hydrated flour. During the following 24-hour rest period in the cooler, the dough will more fully hydrate, and you should be able to sheet it without much difficulty. (We have not been able to open the hydrated dough balls into pizza skins using any method other than sheeting/rolling.)

New York’s Finest Chef Bruno

Spasso Pizzeria: A Family Tradition From the age of eight, Joe Bono, owner of Spasso Pizzeria in Lindenhurst, New York, knew he was destined to be a pizzaiolo.

By Chef Santo Bruno

W

hen Joe Bono’s grandfather, Giovanni, came to the United States from Sicily in 1955, he brought nothing with him but a pocketful of old-world recipes and a dream of success in America. He used the former—plus a lot of hard work—to achieve the latter, and a family tradition that persists to this day was born. Nearly 60 years later, his great-grandchildren carry on the legacy at Spasso Pizzeria (spassopizzeria.com) in Lindenhurst, New York.

Giovanni arrived here with two of his sons, but he’d left his wife and three more children behind until he could get a job and settle in. “The beginning years were rough for his family,” Bono recounts. “They made it through the hard times, though, and opened a pizzeria in Islip, New York, in 1959.”

It would be the first pizzeria in the family, but not the last.

“The family started doing well, and my grandfather brought his wife and the rest of his children here,” Bono says. “Feeling the strength of having all of his children and his wife together now, he started opening one pizzeria a year until all of his sons owned one. At the time, my mom was a little girl working behind the counter and cooking with my grandmother in the kitchen. She was very young, but she would still hop from one of the four pizzerias to another to help her brothers.”

Bono’s mother eventually returned to her native country and married an Italian man. Before long, the newlyweds headed back to the States and launched their own pizzeria in Plainview, New York. Bono himself was making pizzas by the age of eight and opened his first pizzeria in Copiague, New York, while a sophomore in college. “I also met my future wife in college, and we worked together, juggling the pizzeria and classes. After graduation, we got married and worked hard every day to expand our business.”

Now Bono’s two daughters help out at the family-owned Spasso Pizzeria. “Our oldest, Susie, started making pizza at 20 PMQ Pizza Magazine The Pizza Industry’s Business Monthly

the age of 10—she likes to think she makes it better than her dad,” Bono says, with a smile. “Our youngest daughter, Maria, also loves coming to the pizzeria and making boxes and ringing up customers.”

All in all, Bono and his wife have operated five successful pizzerias over the years. “My destiny was written for me,” he says. “Every day I go to work feeling blessed with the job God has chosen for me. I can’t believe I have a job that I love so much. Making a living at it is just an extra bonus.”

Chef Bruno is PMQ’s culinary advisor, with more than 40 years of international pizza experience. He is the corporate chef for Marsal & Sons and the culinary coach of the U.S. Pizza Team.

Accounting For your Money Michael J. Rasmussen, CPA

The Value of RealTime Data Reporting Progressive restaurateurs are taking advantage of technology that generates important financial data on a daily basis.

By Michael J. Rasmussen

QUESTION: What is this talk I keep hearing about collecting daily sales data?

ANSWER: With increased competition and higher food and labor costs, the restaurant industry’s overall net income is shrinking, and restaurateurs have to pay more attention to every penny. Therefore, the old ways of gathering and analyzing restaurant data need to be tossed out the window. Too many accountants send information to their restaurant clients after the end of the calendar month, but that’s too late. This practice is simply no longer acceptable. Progressive, technology-driven restaurateurs are gravitating toward systems that can provide meaningful results on a daily basis, even down to the ideal gross profit generated from your prior day’s net sales mix! In the past, this sort of granular reporting was available only to the large chains, but now independent operators have begun to demand the same sort of data—and they have every right to expect it.

Restaurateurs can now gain access to various programs that can capture all of a restaurant’s data at the point of sale and make it available to the operator via the Internet or a mobile device on a daily basis. (Although there is a significant setup fee involved, this is typically a one-time charge.) Imagine being able to check your restaurant’s operations and profitability on your smartphone while standing in line at Disneyland or playing a round on the golf course. Capturing and interpreting this vital data in real time will help any operator make better decisions that can lead to lower food and labor costs and higher profitability.

ANSWER: Start with your kids or, for that matter, any person under 20.

You can also consult with industry reps at trade shows and ask them for a simple, plain-English demo of their products.

Meanwhile, I encourage every operator to develop a relationship with the local college or university and create an internship program with the marketing department or business school.

These institutions have ready-to-deploy talent who are already learning the newest systems and technologies that could impact your restaurant and attract new customers. Adding these young people to your team, even if only temporarily, brings learning opportunities both for them and for yourself if you’re willing to let them teach you a thing or two!

Above all, you have to be willing to change your thinking.

I encourage all restaurateurs to show up at work tomorrow with a stopwatch and note pad and observe every aspect of the restaurant’s operations. Make a complete list of problems that you’ve observed, and then start looking for solutions. For example, let’s say you noticed that your manager estimates the weekly staff schedule on a piece of paper first and then enters the schedule into a spreadsheet on the computer. That’s a poor use of time—today’s technology lets you create and modify an estimated weekly staffing schedule based on average labor hours per shift over the past several months. It can even be programmed to send out an email to your waitstaff automatically. This system can be used to update your master staffing list and then push it out to all staff, managers and owners’ mobile devices. This technology already exists, and it’s much easier to use than you may expect!

QUESTION:

Have a question for Mike? Send it to editor@pmq.com.

I’m a little intimidated by all of the newfangled technology on the market today. What’s the best way to become familiar with it?

Marketing Maven Linda Duke

Building a Better Beverage Program Linda Duke offers 10 tips for boosting your beer, wine and spirits sales.

By Linda Duke

I

f you’re looking to develop a program to boost beverage sales, you don’t necessarily have to do it alone. Many beer, wine and spirits vendors prove to be excellent resources to help restaurant operators by providing table tents, posters, coasters, signage and other materials for instore promotions. In some cases, they’ll also assist restaurants in creating tasting seminars for the staff, menu pairings, bar promotions and eye-catching displays. They can also help you educate your customers about certain brands and provide giveaway materials bearing their logos to promote their brands—you won’t pay anything, and your customers benefit from the freebies.

To learn more about these opportunities, reach out to your local or regional distributor and inquire about the possibilities.

Meanwhile, if you want to get started right away on your own, consider the following marketing tips: 1. The Power of Suggestion. Make sure that your servers or cashiers use suggestive selling techniques for beverages prior to taking or ringing up orders. Keep half-bottles of wine or six-packs of craft beers near your register for customers with to-go orders.

2. Mix It Up. Promotions mix things up and generate interest and excitement among your guests. Whether it’s March Madness or Merlot Mondays, promotional opportunities abound. Choose one or two, get creative and get started!

3. Shine With Wines. Offer wine dinners and serve wine by the glass. Make sure to provide pairing suggestions on your menus for those customers who are not especially knowledgeable. Make it easy for them, save them some embarrassment, and they’ll appreciate you!

4. ’Tis the Season. Seasonal ingredients can make a big splash with your customers—think orange Italian sodas for Halloween and cinnamon hot chocolate for the holidays. Craft beers are especially popular in the fall months, as are heartier wines. For next spring, consider strawberry martinis and lighter wines.

24 PMQ Pizza Magazine The Pizza Industry’s Business Monthly

5. A Hunger for Happy Hour. A slice and a soda is a great, inexpensive food-and-drink offering to kick-start a successful and moneymaking happy hour promotion. Incorporate other food and beverage pairings to entice the happy hour and value-driven crowd.

6. A Brew or Two. Interest in craft beer has skyrocketed, so pizzeria operators must educate themselves about the latest beer offerings, especially those that are brewed locally or regionally. Many craft beer aficionados go looking for restaurants with new offerings, and they want to drink them in the appropriate glasses. In some cases, the brewers will develop their own proprietary glasses, which may have a certain cachet with their fans. Serving craft beers in incorrectly branded glassware can damage a pizzeria’s credibility.

7. Days to Remember. Create a weekly promotion—such as Wine Wednesdays or Craft Beer Tuesdays—around a beverage and invite guests to join you for special tastings.

Invite local beer experts, sommeliers or knowledgeable distributor representatives to pour and educate the guests.

Promote these events heavily every week on your Facebook and Twitter pages.

8. Kid Stuff. Kids always love to get their own cool swirly straws or cartoon-decorated cups—and parents will often patronize the restaurants that their kids like the most.

9. Hometown Favorites. If there’s a winery or brewery operating in your hometown, reach out and partner with them right away. Local customers appreciate hometown

offerings because they’re patronizing a local business and helping to create jobs and keep their tax dollars in their community. They also love to experience those hometown flavors and show them off to visitors and business associates from out of town. A “Hometown Favorites” promotion featuring local wines and beers could turn a slow night into a major moneymaker.

10. Be a Good Sport. For many customers, the only thing better than watching football is eating a pizza and drinking a beer while you’re watching it. Create a Sunday Night Football or Monday Night Football promotion with pizzas and pitchers of beer for a special price during the games.

Host a fantasy football league and offer postgame prizes as well as food and drink specials that keep customers hanging around for a little longer, especially if there’s a big win to celebrate!

By Rick Hynum

A

s the flamboyant co-founders of Kiss in the 1970s, Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons, notorious for their Kabuki makeup and R-rated stage antics, wanted to rock and roll all night and party every day.

As sober-minded family men and entrepreneurs in 2013, they’ve got somewhat

ROCK & BREWS

higher aspirations: They aim to take their populist restaurant concept, called Rock & Brews (rockandbrews.com), to markets across the United States, rolling out a new pizza-and-beer brand aimed squarely at Middle America.

November 2013

pmq.com 27

Gene Simmons, who has been known to serve Rock & Brews’ guests with partner Paul Stanley, told Rolling Stone that the success of the concept in El Segundo, California, “proves to every small town in America that they are every bit as cool as L.A. and New York.”

ROCK & BREWS

“We’re actively involved in all aspects. We recommend and approve menu items. We play a significant role in branding and marketing and cautiously consider all expansion plans for the company. We attend regular owner meetings and visit the restaurants for tastings and to engage with customers.”

—Gene Simmons, Rock & Brews

home the most. We’ve got a playground for kids age 5 and under. We let people bring in their dogs. We’ve got between 12 and 16 video screens in every restaurant playing all of the coolest music video content I can get my hands on. And who doesn’t like rock-and-roll? I can’t think of a single person who says, ‘Oh, turn that Tom Petty off.’”

“A Spark in Dave Furano’s Eye” Stanley and Simmons are no strangers to commercial enterprise.

Kiss was one of the first bands to grasp the benefits of licensing its name for merchandise ranging from comic books and condoms to pinball machines and Pez dispensers. Simmons, the band’s fire-spitting, tongue-wagging wild man, is unabashedly entrepreneurial and boasts to interviewers that Kiss has 3,000 licensed products under its brand.

But the idea for Rock & Brews came from another source: founding partner Dave Furano, a veteran music promoter who managed tours for acts such as The Rolling Stones and the Grateful Dead. “It started out as a spark in Dave Furano’s ROCK & BREWS

“This is a family-friendly restaurant that provides great food and a broad selection of craft beers in a fun environment,” says Stanley, one of five partners in the Rock & Brews enterprise, which has three locations in southern California and one in Los Cabos, Mexico. “We immerse guests in an entertainment experience with concert lighting, rock-themed artwork and flat screens projecting some of the greatest rock music of all time.”

If that sounds a little too similar to Hard Rock Café, think again. Rock & Brews is no tourist trap with better memorabilia than food. Its first location opened not in glitzy L.A. but in El Segundo, a blue-collar town of about 16,000. Yet it’s backed by one of the South Bay’s most prominent restaurateurs, Michael Zislis, the brains behind Rock’N Fish, a Manhattan Beach eatery specializing in steaks and seafood, and the posh Strand House, where a five-course feast may include pan-roasted Jidori chicken or a Smoked Whitefish Napoleon with herbed crème fraiche.

“I have a restaurant that cost $15 million to open,” Zislis says. “This is not one of those restaurants. This is a local familyfriendly beer garden, and the family component is what hits

(Left to right) Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons interact with guests at Rock & Brews; partner Michael Zislis, a well-known South Bay restaurateur, is the culinary mastermind behind the concept.

eye,” Zislis says. “He thought that L.A., being the hub of the rock-and-roll business, needed an authentic rock-and-roll restaurant. But what he didn’t want was another crappy, pumpout-the-food kind of restaurant. He wanted something that was truly great, something he could be proud of. That’s where I came into play.”

Zislis joined with Furano and his brother, Dell, to launch Rock & Brews in early 2010. “We converted this little teeny restaurant in El Segundo, leased the space next door and made a rock-and-roll-style beer garden with pop-up walls, artwork and graphics. We put together a menu that I felt had the best of what my restaurants offered. It was quite a successful opening—jeez, it was packed.”

Furano then brought Stanley and Simmons into the mix.

“We needed an entrée into the rock-and-roll world,” Zislis says. “And the master licensees of all time are Kiss.” The partners soon tore down the original Rock & Brews space, bought more property around it and built a new 6,000-square-foot restaurant, packed wall-to-wall with flat-screen TVs and original rock album artwork. For the grand reopening, Stanley and Simmons took center stage, but the rockers had no intention of being mere face men for the restaurant. “We’re both actively involved in all aspects of it,” Simmons notes. “We recommend and approve menu items. We play a significant role in branding

and marketing and cautiously consider all expansion plans for the company. We attend regular owner meetings and visit the restaurants for tastings and to engage with customers.”

“They are tireless workers,” Zislis says. “They beat me to the CNN interviews at five in the morning for the East Coast. And Paul really cares about the food. He has been making pizzas in his backyard for years with a really nice wood-fired oven.

That was his passion before this even came to be—making those pizzas.”

Pizza: The Family Product There’s nothing hoity-toity about Rock & Brews, but that doesn’t keep each restaurant from raking in annual sales of about $5 million, Zislis says. The menu features all-American fare, from burgers and hot dogs to chili and baby back ribs. But the pizza is the star of the culinary show, Zislis says. “It’s probably the most important thing. For us, it’s pizza, then burgers and wings. We brought in a famous chef named Timothy Hollingsworth, who spent the last 14 years at The French Laundry, and he came up with some of our pizza recipes, the kale salad, a couple of our burgers. Everything we do is made per order.

We bake our breads and make our dough fresh every day. We grind our own meats. We do everything you’d expect from a fine restaurant, but the atmosphere is more open and friendly.”

ROCK & BREWS

Boutique pizzas and a wide range of locally brewed craft beers are menu mainstays at Rock & Brews.

ROCK & BREWS

“The beer scene is so big right now, and people want something unique, something they can’t ordinarily find.

They love it when the brewmaster shows up with five great barrels directly from the brewery, each paired with a different food.” —Michael Zislis, Rock & Brews

ROCK & BREWS

Rock & Brews currently has locations in El Segundo and Redondo Beach, California, the Los Angeles International Airport and Los Cabos, Mexico, but the founding partners’ goal is to expand to Middle America.

Sold in 10” and 16” sizes, pies include the Surfin’ Safari Shrimp Pesto (housemade pesto sauce, shrimp, mozzarella and goat cheeses, mushrooms and sun-dried tomatoes) and the Maui-Wowie Style (housemade tomato sauce, spicy pepperoni, pineapple, jalapeños and mozzarella). Zislis’ personal favorite is the Bill Graham BBQ Chicken (named for the legendary rock promoter), made with fire-grilled chicken breast, barbecue sauce, red onions, cilantro and mozzarella and Gouda cheeses.

“They’re all boutique pizzas,” Zislis says. “I’d say that 30% of our total food sales come from pizza. It’s the family product.

Most families come in and order a large pizza, a pitcher of beer and a pitcher of soda, and they’re really happy. If you want families, you’ve got to sell pizza.”

Promoting the Beer Scene In addition to drawing the family crowd, Rock & Brews was designed as a beer lover’s Nirvana. The bar is stocked with about 100 craft selections, from lagers and pilsners to wheat beers, Belgians and dark, malty and hoppy brews. Zislis uses the beer menu to drive traffic on slow nights. To celebrate L.A. Beer Week, Rock & Brews hosted a Craft Beer Dinner, serving a five-course meal paired with beers from Goose Island Beer Co. Affordably priced at $45 and $55, the packages featured the Strawberry Fields Salad paired with a 312 Urban Wheat or

Paul Stanley’s Pizza Secrets Paul Stanley knows a thing or two about making great pizza. Before delving into the restaurant business with the Rock & Brews concept, the legendary Kiss lead singer had been throwing backyard pizza parties at his home for years. We asked him to share with us his secrets for making a great pizza: “You have to start with a great crust. Nancy Silverton’s recipe is about as good as it gets, but Trader Joe’s actually has a terrific dough that’s ready to go. I prefer a relatively thin, bubbly, crispy crust.

Sofie Paradisi; Asian wings with a Harvest Ale or Matilda; the Bleu Cheese Bacon Burger with India Pale Ale or Pere Jacques; a Pulled Pork Pizza with Honkers Ale; and Purple Rain Drops for dessert.

Pint Night is another popular recurring promo. Advertised heavily on Facebook and Twitter, every Pint Night event features beers from companies like Ballast Point Brewing and Monkish Brewery. “People love it,” Zislis says. “The beer scene is so big right now, and people want something unique, something they can’t ordinarily find. They love it when the brewmaster shows up with five great barrels directly from the brewery, each paired with a different food. The brewer goes table to table, talking to the guests about the beers and how they’re made. Beer lovers want to connect with that brewery, and they want to know who’s brewing these local beers. We had about 60 people show up at our Pint Night event last night. That’s about half of the restaurant.”

Best of all, although only a limited number of tickets are sold for each Pint Night, it’s affordable for working people. “This is a $40 event,” Zislis says. “It’s not a $200 wine dinner. To go out and have a great meal and a good time and only spend $40, people absolutely love that.”

Tap Takeovers are also popular beer-driven promos at Rock & Brews. “We’ll have a local brewery bring six products for a

“Dog owners are so passionate about their dogs, so the idea of pouring a [nonalcoholic] beer in a bowl for their dog sitting next to them at their table—it’s something they can’t wait for.”

ingredients don’t need to be messed with too much. I like to get some nice, small portobello mushrooms, scrape out the underside to remove excess water and slice them.

Then I douse them with extra-virgin olive oil, add salt and throw them in the oven to get nice and brown. I take some prosciutto and fry it in a pan with some olive oil and lay the pieces on a paper towel. I do the same with a sliced onion. I brush the outer edge of my flat dough with olive oil, put my sauce on, then add some burrata, my mushrooms, prosciutto and onion. I throw on some Asiago, ParmigianoReggiano and fresh basil and slide it into my stone oven.

My temperature is around 900°, so I do a rotation or two, and the pie’s done in two minutes or so. Awesome!”

whole week and take over the taps,” Zislis says. The restaurant’s annual Local Craft Beer Festivals, meanwhile, spotlight homegrown breweries and offer carnival-style games, dunking tanks and cotton candy.

A Middle-America Concept Even dog lovers feel welcome at Rock & Brews—there’s a special menu just for their pets. “We have a couple of different [nonalcoholic] dog beers, a light and a dark,” Zislis says.

“We have a hot dog for dogs, a burger for dogs. It’s all made by dog food companies. Dog owners are so passionate about their dogs, so the idea of pouring a beer in a bowl for their

dog sitting next to them at their table—it’s something they can’t wait for.”

Everything about Rock & Brews seems calculated to appeal to the broadest possible demographic without insulting the more discriminating diner’s palate. So it’s only natural that the partners want to spread the Rock & Brews gospel to markets around the United States. A location in Paia, Hawaii, will open soon, but less exotic locales are just as desirable to Zislis’ group.

“We like to call it a Middle-America concept,” Zislis says. “It works in every city. But it’s not a formulaic concept. We wrote a whole new menu for Hawaii, including things that were representative of the island. If we ever come to Tennessee, I can guarantee you I’ll go through the menus at the great restaurants there and make sure that region is represented on our menu.”

Zislis wants to find 10 partners around the country to form joint ventures with his group. Two partnerships—in Texas and Florida—are already under way. But this is not a franchise deal, he notes. “I don’t see anything good coming from franchising one store to one person at a time. We’re looking for experienced people who have already opened up 10 or 12

restaurants to partner with us. We want to surround ourselves with great people.”

Zislis says he has no doubt the concept can fly in the sleepy American heartland as well as in big, bustling cities. “I knew it when I opened the first one. I’ve opened four now, and they’re all busy. Whenever you can pay off a project in 24 months, that’s a good project. And that’s been our track record so far.”

othing beats a hot slice of pizza fresh from the oven, which is why so many pizzerias offer nothing but pies. But when operators incorporate entreés into the menu, many of them can effortlessly increase customer visits and profits without boosting overhead costs. “We are probably 85% pizza to 15% Italian-type pastas/appetizers,” says Jay Jerrier, owner of Cane Rosso (cannerosso.com) and Zoli’s NY Pizza (zolispizza.com) in Dallas. “People come to us for pizza, but having other Italian entreés encourages them to eat with us multiple times per week.”

Think about it for a moment: You already have most of what you need to offer a multitude of Italian entreés and appetizers—except for possibly pasta, which is easy to find (and cheap). When your customers—or their eating companions—are in the mood for something other than their

favorite slice, you can be the one to feed their hunger. Some of the more popular entreés, which are easy to add to the menu using what you already have in-house (plus pasta), include: spaghetti and meatballs; lasagna; chicken Alfredo; chicken Parmesan; baked ziti; ravioli; and pasta primavera.

Sauté veggies in olive oil and garlic until softened. Add pasta, butter and cream. Toss well. Season with salt and pepper. Top with Parmesan.

Incorporate With Ease “The entreés that are easiest to incorporate, most cost-effective, profitable and most popular are right at our fingertips,” says Alex Rubeo, co-owner of North Salem, New York’s Two Meatballs Pizzeria (twomeatballspizza.com), which sells about 50% pizza and 50% everything else (including appetizers, salads, sandwiches and entrees). “Using ingredients in-house, instead of buying new ones, is a home run. We have tomato sauce, cheese and chicken; a sizzle plate goes into the pizza oven, and chicken Parmigiana—a top seller—emerges.”

It’s easy to create a variety of dishes, according to Rubeo.

“Use different sauces with different styles of chicken—fried, sautéed, or grilled—and pair them with pasta and a hunk of bread,” he says. “You just created a $15 plate.”

“For both of our restaurants, we sell way more pizza than other entreés,” Jerrier says. “However, we try to feature a regular rotation of pastas at Cane Rosso. I think those are the easiest for a pizzeria to pull off because you can generally make a very nice pasta using the same ingredients you’d have on your pizza line: tomatoes, fresh mozzarella, zucchini, mushrooms, onions, sausage, etc. Almost anything you can put on a pizza, you can put in a pasta.”

At Cane Rosso, fresh pasta is rolled out daily using the same Italian flour used for the pizzeria’s pizza dough, but Jerrier says you can easily find a quality dry pasta for simplicity.

Often, the easiest way to determine which entreés will sell is to introduce them as specials. Pizza Nola (pizzanola.com) in New Orleans features five pasta entreés: Spaghetti & Meatballs, Fettuccine Alfredo (available with shrimp, chicken or Portobello mushrooms), Pasta Primavera, Meat or Veggie Lasagna and Shrimp Scampi, according to owner Will Samuels. Several of them started as specials. “We added the scampi as an item on a special Lent menu, and customers liked it, so we just kept it on the regular menu,” Samuels says. “The lasagnas were 40 PMQ Pizza Magazine The Pizza Industry’s Business Monthly

originally added as a special because our kitchen manager had a good recipe and wanted to test it out.”

An Easy Sell If a customer spotted lasagna on the menu at a sushi restaurant, he’d do a double take. But Italian entreés are a natural fit for pizzerias. Many customers, in fact, expect you to offer some of their favorite Italian entreé dishes. “Specialty pastas and lasagna go hand-in-hand with pizza, although you need to be careful not to single-stock items just for a pasta,” Jerrier says. “At a pizzeria, you will always sell more pizza, so you don’t want to waste money on single-use items. Our Caprese Salad is a very popular item when tomatoes are in season, and you can also make it into a pasta dish. On weekends, we make a meatball lasagna that’s wildly popular and sells out every weekend. We roll out fresh pasta sheets for the lasagna and add heavy béchamel, housemade meatballs and sausage. It’s not for the faint of heart.”

“Spaghetti & Meatballs is our best-seller, with the Fettuccine Alfredo (usually served with chicken) coming in close behind,” Samuels says. “The Spaghetti & Meatballs are popular because

we offer a large portion with huge made-in-house meatballs that are a combination of ground beef and ground turkey.”

Samuels even recalls that one customer, who has since moved out of town, ordered Pizza Nola’s Meatballs & Spaghetti for delivery 140 times over a span of two years.

Cost and Profit When considering adding or expanding an entreé menu, consider the product and labor costs involved. Overall, there should not be too many added costs; for the most part, you should have everything you need already. Mike Rasmussen,

The meatball lasagna at Cane Rosso features a heavy béchamel sauce, housemade meatballs and sausage.

an accountant specializing in restaurants at Rasmussen Tax Group in Conway, Arkansas, reminds pizzeria operators that adding pasta to the menu should never involve any additional costs—ingredient, labor or otherwise. “If you have to hire a new employee to create the pasta dishes, that’s considered an additional cost,” says Rasmussen. “The goal here is to increase your profits while utilizing what you already have on hand.”

Oftentimes, adding pastas can even help use ingredients you may have previously tossed away as scraps. “Pastas are a great way to make sure you are using every last ingredient in-house,” says Jerrier. “You can make a great pasta with the very ends of

Pasta Amatriciana recipe and photo courtesy of Cane Rosso 5 oz. pasta (your choice of bucatini, linguine or tagliatelle) Extra-virgin olive oil to coat pan 2 oz. diced pancetta (thick-cut, diced bacon will also work) 1 oz. red onion, diced 5 oz. red sauce (for best results, crush one 28-oz. can of Italian plum tomatoes or San Marzano tomatoes with the back of a fork until they are mashed but still chunky. You can also use a simple jarred tomato/basil sauce)

CANE ROSSO

Fresh pasta sheets are rolled out daily at Cane Rosso, using the same Italian flour used for the pizza dough.

2 tbsp. Parmigiano and Pecorino cheeses, grated 1 tbsp. red pepper flakes, crushed Note: Have a pot of boiling salted water ready for the pasta going before starting this dish. You will not cook the pasta all the way; you will finish it in the pan with the sauce.

Drop the pasta into the boiling water to start the cooking process. Meanwhile, in a sauté pan, heat the oil over high heat and add pancetta. Saute until the pancetta is rendered (when most of the fat melts away) and turn the heat down to medium. (The pancetta should look like crispy bacon.) Add onions and stir constantly, making sure the onions do not burn. Once the onions are soft and cooked through, add sauce. Cook for 1 minute and add cheese and pepper flakes, stirring to incorporate. Turn off the heat on the sauce and add the cooked pasta to the sauté pan with the sauce. Turn the heat back to low on the sauté pan and toss the pasta constantly so that the sauce will “stick” to the pasta (the sauce should be thick and shouldn’t create a pool on the plate). Transfer the pasta and sauce to a bowl and sprinkle more cheese on top to serve.

the prosciutto or soppressata. Once it gets too small to run through the slicer, you can cut it into a medium dice and sauté/ fry it, and throw it into a pasta; no waste, and it tastes great.”

Promotion Savvy It can be easy to forget about promoting your new pasta entreés when you’re focusing on your pizza, but every item deserves its moment in the spotlight, whether it’s through mentions on social media, box toppers, blackboard specials, table tents or text and email blasts.

Jerrier uses the power of social media to promote its pasta offerings. “We take a few pictures and send the blast out,” he says. “Between our three restaurants, we have about 16,000 followers across our social media platforms, so word gets around pretty quickly.”

Although Pizza Nola has a handle on social media, an allyou-can-eat pasta night didn’t catch on as expected, Samuels notes. “I think the reason people may not be taking advantage of all-you-can-eat pasta is because our individual portions are so large. We may consider running it as a lunch special.”

And while Two Meatballs Pizzeria uses a lot of social media and blackboard specials to promote its specials, the owners also find that its entreés help promote the pizzeria to healthconscious and gluten-sensitive customers. Rubeo says that with all of the vegetables they carry for pizza, it’s easy to sauté them up, add grilled chicken or shrimp and create healthy, low-carb, gluten-free entreés. “We offer six or seven healthy entreé variations with grilled chicken and shrimp,” he says.

So whether you’re just venturing into adding entreés to your menu or your dishes already have a rabid fan following, keep your cost-to-profit ratio in check and always pay attention to the wants and needs of your customers. You should find yourself with a winning recipe for Italian entreé success!

Pizzeria insiders share their tips for selecting the right products and marketing tactics to make alcoholic beverage sales soar.

By Tracy Morin

P

izza has long been considered the perfect accompaniment to a frosty beer or a glass of Cabernet, and today’s pizzerias are proving that even themed cocktails can complement specialty pies. But are you making the most of alcohol sales at your pizzeria? According to Jim Sullivan, consultant and CEO of Sullivision.com, the gross profit margins on beverages far outweigh those on food—as much as 80% per serving—but beverages often make up less than 10% of items sold in foodservice operations. So if you have a license to sell beer, wine or liquor (or all of the above), making the effort to beef up your alcoholic beverage program is a nobrainer. Here’s how to do it.

Sudsy Sales Beer and pizza—now there’s a perfect food-and-beverage marriage. But today’s beer scene is a far different animal than it has been in decades past. Now, craft brewers vie with the big guys for market share, and more customers eschew the typical domestics in favor of local products from smaller producers. “Make no mistake—it’s all about craft brews,” says Stuart Melia, vice president of beverage for Old Chicago Pizza & Taproom (oldchicago.com), with nearly 100 locations nationwide and headquarters in Chattanooga, Tennessee, and Bloomfield, Colorado. “The U.S. beer scene is so vibrant

right now that you can be drinking great beer that’s brewed right in your neighborhood. There’s no reason every pizzeria should not be offering at least one or two local/regional beers; the demand is there.”

Today’s brews can be every bit as complex and sophisticated as wine, which is why some pizzerias call out beers on the menu that pair well with their specialty pies. At Sal & Mookie’s New York Pizza & Ice Cream Joint (salandmookies.com) in Jackson, Mississippi, service manager Courtney Culpepper introduced these pairing suggestions, which are now listed on the beer menu. “We’re in a craft beer movement right now, and pairings can make a meal 10 times better,” she says. “When you pair foods with beers, people are interested; it often gets them to try something new, and when one person at the table thinks outside the box, their dining companions sometimes get more adventurous, too.”

For those who are considering beer pairings but don’t know where to start, Culpepper recommends research (hundreds of beer books list food-and-beer pairing suggestions) and simply trying each pizza with different beers to nail down surefire winners. In general, however, Culpepper notes that India Pale Ales (IPAs) complement spicy foods because their hoppy flavor cleanses the palate, while ambers are great with chicken, and brown ales pair well with smoked meats.

Zorbas Pizza saw a 25% boost in wine sales after adding Adam Carolla’s Mangria, a celebrity-backed brand that does its own advertising and has a substantial Facebook following.

But Sal & Mookie’s goes even further by regularly hosting beer dinners; every other month on a Monday, when the business is normally closed, 50 to 60 beer lovers flock to the pizzeria for five courses paired with beers, often from a local brewer.

“In October, we did one called The History of Beer, where we brought in a local professor to lead the dinner and compare modern beers to ancient styles,” says Jonathan Webb, bar manager at Sal & Mookie’s. “We have a strong following for these dinners, which we promote heavily through social media and email blasts.”

Meanwhile, many pizza lovers still seek out their old favorites; in fact, at Sal & Mookie’s, the No. 1 seller is Blue Moon. So don’t overlook offering at least a few traditionally popular, massbrewed beers. “Several beers are good sellers across the board, like Budweiser, Bud Light, Miller and Miller Lite,” says Anthony Russo, owner of Houston-based Russo’s New York Pizzeria and Russo’s Coal-Fired Italian Kitchen (nypizzeria.com). “I like to include local and craft beers as well, plus imports like Heineken and Mona. We are passionate about supporting local businesses and breweries; at our Houston-area locations, we serve Karbach and Shiner Bock—they’re both Texas favorites.”

Finally, when it comes to the wide world of beer, don’t be afraid to offer a variety of categories. “It’s less about brands and more about style diversity: Don’t have five IPAs and five

“

Cocktails could be a great seller, especially Bellinis and sangria—both are great with pizza!”

light beers all from the biggest brands and no Hefeweizens or high-alcohol-byvolume beers,” suggests Melia. “Have a great mix of beer styles to cater to any drinking occasion or food pairing.”

As far as the tried-and-true “pitcher and pizza” deal that many have adhered to over the years, Melia believes that while these give great value, they limit guests’ choices—and your sales—because

everyone will have to share the same beer.

“Instead, I recommend offering smaller beer sizes and encouraging customers to try a variety of beers based on bartender and server recommendations,” he says.

Great Grapes Since the recession hit, fewer customers may be apt to order a high-ticket bottle of wine, especially outside of the finedining setting, but that doesn’t mean your vino sales have to suffer. Constantino Anezinos, owner of Zorbas Pizza (zorbaspizza.com), with three locations in the San Francisco Bay Area, has witnessed a 25% sales increase in the last six months thanks to the addition of a celebrity-endorsed wine in his pizzerias that has customers visiting from other states. “Our wine sales were always so-so, until we added Adam Carolla’s Mangria, a sangria made with a wine-based vodka,” explains Anezinos. “We used to sell a case of wine per month; now, we go through 15 cases per week, plus what we offer on tap.” By aligning himself with a product that does its own advertising and quickly gained a large following, Anezinos has not only counted more profits; he counts more Facebook followers, which have more than quadrupled since adding the wine (thanks in part, no doubt, to the wine’s thousands of Facebook fans).

Unlike draft beer, Anezinos notes, there’s no spillage associated with wine, and the novelty of this newer serving option hasn’t tapped out just yet, even in the uberhip Bay Area. To promote the offering, he makes posters announcing daily wine specials and posts them outside his pizzerias. He also offers samples to interested customers (this is easier with wine on tap) and makes sure that all servers try the wine so they can make enthusiastic recommendations. “We buy the wine for $10 and sell it for $20; with

SAL & MOOKIES

A Boost From the Bar Jonathan Raduns, a retail and foodservice merchandising consultant from Merchandisefood.com in Somerdale, New Jersey, offers the following tips for maximizing profits on alcoholic beverages: qq Try combo menu offerings. qq Use local marketing and signage; partner with local “farm-to-pint” producers, or feature locally well-known brands on in-store signage and table tents. qq Don’t automatically bring glasses of water to tables before taking drink orders. Instead, use suggestive selling first to boost the customers’ beverage tabs. qq Feature high-quality photos of your product in menus and signage, but add suggestive items such as freshly poured beers in the background to subtly encourage alcoholic beverage orders.

Also offer pairing ideas on your menus. qq Develop a specialty drink menu and rotate through seasonally appropriate items. Contact your liquor or beer supplier for special adult drink promotions you can offer; suppliers often have signage and marketing collateral materials so you don’t have to develop your own. qq Keep coolers fully stocked with beverages, and place highest-profit beverages at eye level.

and takeout, but that changed earlier this year when general manager/corporate chef Klime Kovaceski began promoting the dining room, too. Sales in August soared by $16,000 over the previous August—and alcohol sales were a big part of that upswing. Hence, a 10 for $10 wine promotion—10 bottles at a $10 price point—was designed and promoted through local media, Facebook, and promotional cards given to all to-go and delivery customers. “We have wines in the $30-to-$40 range, but more are between $20 and $30,” Kovaceski says. With a laugh, he adds, “A lot of people today don’t want to spend $40 on a bottle of wine just because the name sounds fancy!” And a full training process for staff is a must, Kovaceski notes—every server should be able to answer guests’ questions about the wines you offer.

Indeed, wine can be an intimidating category for many, so don’t hesitate to put descriptions and tasting notes on the menu so that customers know what they’re ordering. Sal & Mookie’s offers plain-English descriptions on its wine list, which were put together with the help of a local sommelier. The pizzeria also sticks to affordable wines to suit its family-friendly atmosphere. “If you’re just a small restaurant and not too expensive, you’ll probably want to limit your choices to eight to 12 wines,” advises Russo. Also, depending on your typical customer and your atmosphere, you may want to offer wines at a range of prices to suit anyone’s tastes and spending habits.

The Hard Stuff

wine, you want to make sure the margins are there, and superfancy wines don’t have the markup that less-expensive wines do,” Anezinos notes.

Russo agrees that when it comes to wine, operators should start by minding the basics, such as a great-tasting house wine.

“Don’t go cheap; a lot of my wine sales are by-the-glass house wine,” says Russo. “We also make sure our staff is familiar with the wine list to ensure that guests can easily pair a dish with a good wine.”

Specialty cocktails, like craft beer, have stormed the bar scene in recent years, with an ever-growing population of mixologists serving up pre-Prohibition-era classics and making their own tinctures, infusions and bitters in-house. If your pizzeria sells hard liquor, there’s no need to get quite as fancy, but you do need to make your drinks high-quality for today’s more discerning clientele.

For example, Sal & Mookie’s recently underwent a complete overhaul of its cocktail program, introducing drinks with a New York theme in accordance with the pizzeria itself. “PreProhibition drinks are so trendy and popular right now, so we did a lot of research and now have a drink for each of the five boroughs in New York,” Webb says. “We use fresh-squeezed

Meanwhile, for those customers who want something simpler (or for those who still want to get their old favorite drink from the previous menu), the pizzeria will be offering up “The Archives”—a list of classic cocktails not listed on the menu, as well as the drinks the pizzeria used to offer—so that customers can choose from a variety of options if nothing on the main menu strikes their fancy.

Finally, when crafting a unique cocktail list, don’t overlook pizza’s Italian/Mediterranean roots—drinks from this region are a natural complement. At Balena (balenachicago.com) in Chicago, for example, pizzas and pastas are offered alongside aperitivo drinks and cocktails that incorporate amaro and bitters from the regions around Italy. In fact, though Russo sells only beer and wine at his locations, he believes “cocktails could be a great seller, especially Bellinis and sangria—both are great with pizza!”

A Taste of Philadelphia

Ask many Philadelphians, and they’ll tell you that a Philly cheesesteak made in a restaurant more than an hour away from South Philly doesn’t merit the name. That hasn’t stopped restaurant chefs around the country from hijacking the classic sandwich concept and making a pizza out of it. Like the sandwich, the Philly cheesesteak pizza typically features savory seasoned steak meat (typically thinly sliced ribeye or top round) and melted provolone cheese. But the deliciousness is in the details, as many chefs experiment with cheese blends and toss in sautéed onions, peppers, mushrooms and other goodies to create steak-and-cheese pies that will make any American proud. Here are some examples: The 50-unit Toppers chain (toppers.com), headquartered in Whitewater, Wisconsin, starts with a white wine sauce base and tops the pie with steak, onions, green peppers and mushrooms, all smothered in mozzarella and provolone cheeses.

Earlier this year, Papa John’s (papajohns.com) unveiled its Steak and Cheese specialty pizza on a limited-time-only basis. It was made with a mix of tomato-based pizza sauce and a creamy garlic Parmesan sauce and topped with steak slices, mozzarella cheese and a blend of Italian seasonings.

Located in Tonawanda, New York, John’s Pizza & Subs (johnspizzaandsubs.com) created its own variation on the Philly classic: the 3 Cheese Steak Pizza, made with a garlic sauce, ribeye steak, mushrooms, onions, peppers and a blend of mozzarella, Swiss and American cheeses.

Along with the standard ingredients—a garlic sauce base, steak, mushrooms and green peppers—Pittsburgh-based Vocelli’s Pizza (vocellipizza.com) prepares its Philly Steak pie with imported Pecorino Romano, Wisconsin mozzarella and cheddar cheeses and adds ripe tomatoes and red onions to the mix of toppings.

DEPARTMENT time capsule

Luigi’s Apizza Steeped in tradition yet known for menu experimentation, this Connecticut pizzeria continues to adapt—and thrive—after more than 55 years in business.

In 1956, Joseph Abate opened up Luigi’s Apizza (luigisapizza.com), named after his father, in North Haven, Connecticut; his oldest son, also named Joseph, was three years old. The business moved in 1960 to North Haven, then operated in East Haven for 35 years, until 2007, when the younger Joseph—who had worked in the business since he was 12 and had since opened his own successful locations—took over the pizzeria and returned it to North Haven.

Pizza had always been a family tradition; Joseph’s brother Lou operates three pizzerias in the state, one of which is managed by another brother, Priscoe. “We’re a close-knit Italian family and get together every week to talk business,” says Joseph. “If the passion isn’t there, you’re not going to make it in this business; it has to be in your blood.”

What’s also in Joseph’s blood is an obsessive perfectionism with his product; pizza makes up 85% of sales and is crafted according to his dad’s recipe. But despite his traditional background and retro setting (complete with a jukebox spinning 45s, a vintage Coca-Cola machine and red vinyl booths), he harbors an endless affinity for experimentation—think pizzas made with mac-and-cheese and bacon, or hot dog and potato; triple-stacked fried pies; and pasta fagioli-topped pies. In fact, so many specialty pizzas have been dreamed up by Joseph (often, he says, as he makes dough every morning) that his wife has created the “Book of Pies,” which is placed at every table and lists all of the specialty creations made over the years, with pictures. “Some people say, ‘Are you crazy?’ about some of the things I come up with, but you have to have fun with the business,” laughs Joseph. “I have a passion to make things that no one else has!”

Though the pizza business has required long hours and back-breaking work—Joseph remains at the pizzeria from open to close six days a week—he takes pleasure in continuing the family legacy and hearing rave reviews from customers. “It’s tough to be away from family and put in so much time, but it’s what I do,” he says. “My dad always said to me, ‘You’re too fussy, too demanding,’ but if I do it, I want it to be right.” —Tracy Morin

These images from the early 1960s show Luigi’s Apizza exterior, interior and founder Joseph Abate monitoring his pizzas in the oven.

Sbarro Branches Out Long known for its quick-service eateries tucked away in malls and airports around the country, Melville, New York-based chain Sbarro (sbarro.com) has added a new wrinkle to its business model: a restaurant prototype, designed to take advantage of the fast-casual and artisan pizza trends.

Pizza Cucinova (pizzacucinova.com), which opened last month in Columbus, Ohio, offers nine specialty pizzas along with the option to build your own pie, assembly line-style. Customers can choose from such ingredients as roast sirloin, sopressata, fresh mozzarella and shiitake mushrooms. All of the ingredients are sourced locally or imported from Italy. The 12” pies are baked in about three minutes in ovens heated to nearly 900°. Sbarro plans to open two more Pizza Cucinova restaurants next year—a second location in downtown Columbus and another one in Cincinnati.

Pizza Cucinova, the new fast-casual concept launched by quick-service giant Sbarro, opened recently in Columbus, Ohio.

How Pizza Ended the Government Shutdown

A congressional aide hauls pizzas from Pizza Boli to House Speaker John Boehner’s office during October’s shutdown negotiations.

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid and Minority Leader Mitch McConnell may have brokered the deal, but Beltway pizzeria Pizza Boli (pizzaboli. com) is taking partial credit for ending the government shutdown. During late-night negotiations on Capitol Hill, at least 20 large boxes of pizza showed up at House Speaker John Boehner’s office. An Associated Press photographer snapped a picture of the delivery, with Pizza Boli’s logo prominently displayed on the boxes. As word spread that negotiators had finally hammered out a deal that could pass in both the House and the Senate, Pizza Boli tweeted, “They love them some @PizzaBoli’s! Honored to have helped!”

Grimaldi’s Raises $70,000 For Hungry Kids Grimaldi’s Pizzeria, with locations in Arizona, Florida, Nevada, Texas and South Carolina, raised $70,000 for Share Our Strength’s No Kid Hungry Campaign in September. The restaurant offered guests the option to donate $5 or $10 to No Kid Hungry and in return gave them $5 or $10 discounts on their next Grimaldi’s purchase between September 15 and September 30. “One in five children in America struggle with hunger,” CEO Joey Ciolli says. “That’s a number we find unacceptable.” Share Our Strength uses the funds to connect needy children to effective nutrition programs and to teach low-income families to stretch their food budgets and cook healthy, affordable meals.

Pizzeria Features Disco Ball Oven Talk about a disco inferno! Lots of pizzaioli take pride in their wood-fired ovens, but a restaurant in Vienna, Austria, has taken the classic pizzeria centerpiece to a new level.

Boasting a unique design by a creative collective called Madame Mohr, Disco Volante (the name means “flying disc”) features an oven that spins like a gigantic disco ball.

Covered in hundreds of tiny mirrored tiles, the oven sits in the middle of the dining area, anchored to a chimney that allows it to pivot from its center. Once it’s fired up, the oven rotates slowly—about one revolution per minute—but the real show begins in the evenings. At that time, the restaurant’s lights are dimmed, and various colored spotlights are directed at the oven, beaming a kaleidoscope of multi-hued dots onto the ceiling and walls.

Meanwhile, the restaurant’s waitstaff wear specially designed overalls—created by fashion designers Milena Heussler and Luciano Raimondi—which resemble a mechanic’s uniform. According to Madame Mohr’s website, the restaurant owner’s desire was to “not only create the atmosphere of a southern Italian pizzeria, but also to convey the lightness of the ‘Italo-Disco’ era of the 1970s and 80s.”

A Vienna pizzeria recreates the disco balls of the 1970s—in the form of a wood-burning pizza oven!

Westport Pizzeria Marks 45th Anniversary A slice of pizza went for 25 cents when Westport Pizzeria (westportpizzeria.com) first opened in Westport, Connecticut, in October 1968.

Exactly forty-five years later, co-founder Carmelo Mioli marked the store’s anniversary by turning back the clock to that simpler—and much cheaper—era for a few hours. Ordinarily priced at $2.50 (with tax), slices sold for a quarter once more, as did sodas, from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. “It’s been a wonderful 45 years, dealing with wonderful people from all over town, and many of them have become our personal friends,” Mioli told local news site westportnow.com.

Brothers Carmelo and Joe Mioli founded Westport Pizzeria in October 1968.

Where There’s Smoke, There’s Pizza Would you like a smoke alarm with that pizza? Members of the Vermilion, Ohio, Fire Department recently delivered pies for Pizza Galley in a special promotion that emphasized fire safety. At each customer’s house, the firefighters took time to test smoke alarms and gave away free alarms to those who needed them.
