La Strada Wood Fired Pizza

One of my favorite places on the planet is La Strada Wood Fired Pizza in Matunick. The pizza is THE BEST. Plus, they are diligent about using only the best local ingredients. And, they have the coolest atmosphere. They play the coolest music on their vintage turntable (Bowie and Dr. John last night). Outdoor seating and a portable wood fired oven! Plus they are steps from the beach. Could anything be better?

Nick and Jenny (the owners of La Strada) have lots of creative pizzas. The picture here is the Come To Jesus, with sun dried tomato pesto, feta cheese from Narragansett Creamery and garlic. Perfect with the Newport Storm Amber Ale on tap.

Last night while I was enjoying my Come To Jesus with a magically disappearing Amber Ale, Nick showed me a review of La Strada in the Providence Phoenix. The review itself is pretty spot on and an unqualified rave. Best of all, they have a quick mention of One Love Farm as one of places that La Strada sources ingredients from locally.
