"Chefs like Todd English have taken gourmet pizza to another level. Inspired by the legendary PepeÂ’s Pizzeria in New Haven, Conn., the pizza at his four Figs restaurants in Massachusetts and his newer ventures, Miramar in Westport, Conn., and Olives in Las Vegas, is free-form, cracker thin and crispy bottomed. It can be simple, consisting of freshly shucked clams and grated Parmesan or tomato, basil oil and shaved Parmesan... But thereÂ’s also pizza with potatoes, sauerkraut, kielbasa and mustard aioli. ItÂ’s so popular, says Brad Stevens, Figs corporate executive chef, that he canÂ’t take it off the menu." -excerpt from "Pie in the Sky, " by Laura Yee,
