Embarrassed to admit i’d never been to the food extravanganza at the DTLA’s Produce Mart(Central/7th St) until this morning, and it was not intentional…i was just drivin around on my first Sunday off in a while and there it was…there is a helluva lot of mouth watering food there, from desserts to bbq to chinese dumplings to puerto rican food, but the sign that caught my eye, naturally, was New Haven style pizza…holy shit…the land of the legendary Frank Pepe’s apparently has an expatriate living in San Diego where Michael DiLauro has several branches of coal-fired New Haven style pizza…i think id heard about it but dismissed it out of hand…Well, this is the Shit…the margherita had a delish fruity tomato sauce with creamy mozz and most importantly, a verrry thin, smoky, charred chewy crust…i’ll say no more except that urbn pizza will have a new truck in LA soon…yum!
chowseeker, I loved it!
No, PorkyBelly, cheese, margherita, pepperoni & bacon…but here’s a photo of the very smoky food right next to urbn…only looked, though…thats a beautiful hunk of pork
Nice! So glad you liked it! Thanks for the history lesson as well.
I’m also glad to hear they’re still at Smorgasburg. I was worried they left. I still remember my previous visit fondly, and now I feel like going back ASAP thanks to your report!
Im missing something here…the “upskirt” photo in this comment looks damn good to me…who is comparing “looking under the pizza skirt” to Stephen Rea’s surprise?
