What's the craziest pizza request you've ever received and successfully made? “Someone asked for a Big Mac-inspired pizza for a football event and we did it. Called it ‘The Hamburglar’ and it was really freaking good.” — Chris Wallace of [Ozzy’s Apizza]( “A Pepperoni Pizza without Pepperoni. I asked, ‘So they want a cheese?’ They said no, a Pepperoni with no pepperoni. — Tommy B. of [LA Sorted’s Pizzeria]( “For several events and specials in the past we have done Elote and/or Birria pizzas, another is a Lumpia pizza. We have also made a Wagyu beef pepperoni pizza upon special request.” — [Speak Cheezy]( What's the story behind the name of your most popular pizza? “Our most devoted fans might point out that we have a secret menu item with a name. This would be ‘The Larg,’ named after wonderful LA chef [Lo Hoang]( who likes it half mushroom/half pepperoni.” — Sean Lango of [Secret Pizza]( “Alicia Keys! We name all of our sweet buns after old school hip hop artists so when we decided on a savory spin we went R&B. We chose Alicia cause she’s from NYC and the Big Apple reminds us of some great pizza!” — Lindsay Sears of [All About the Cinnamon Baby]( “The LBC is one of our most popular pizzas and the name is derived from the city we reside in, the great city of Long Beach. It consists of our fennel sausage, borough cut pepperoni, a little garlic confit and finished with a little ricotta cheese to give a contrast of flavors to build on. — [Speak Cheezy]( Do you have a secret menu item that only your biggest fans know about? “We have one secret menu item and it’s called ‘The Mikey Rabbit.’ It’s our White Rabbit pie (a white pie with house made ricotta cream sauce, fresh spinach, garlic, and pecorino) plus Italian sausage on top. Michael, one of the hugely important members of the Ozzy’s team, would always ask us to make it for him, so I added it to the menu and named it after him.” — Chris Wallace of [Ozzy’s Apizza]( “We call it ‘The Good Stuff’ — you know those free packets of Grated Parmesan Cheese you see around? This is the elevated version of that: a small container of freshly grated imported Italian Pecorino Romano Cheese. It's really some of the best stuff on earth and it isn't long before it won't be much of a secret.” — Sean Lango of [Secret Pizza]( “Our Triple Dog Dare Pizza, based on the Dodger Dog.
