Squirrel's Pizza at Bull Street

Located in the eclectic Starland District,(voted by Southern Living as the Best Neighborhood in the South), Squirrel’s is an elegantly casual eatery serving crispier, wood-fired versions of pizza with irreverence for tradition that could be considered a cross between Neapolitan and Roman Pizza Tonda. We place the toppings on the border (al Bordo) to minimize the Cornicione (puffy crust). We strive to blend the marriage of sauce and dough that is characteristic of Neapolitan and add the crispiness that is characteristic of Roman Pizza Tonda. We also use less water in the dough and cook at a lower temperature than Neapolitan (700 degrees vs 900 degrees for Neapolitan), which allows for a longer cooking time and, therefore, crispier crust.
