A new spot to grab a slice is opening up in downtown Grand Haven later on this summer.

The restaurant puts a lot of care into their pies, and folks seem to dig it! The dough starts with imported Italian flour, is built using a poolish starter, and is cold fermented for 72 hours. Imported tomatoes go into the sauce, and the pizzas are finished with a blend of mozzarella cheese and house-made toppings.
