Little Star Pizza

So we went shooting today and...

I kid, I kid. We went to Chabot Regional Park and shot paper targets at the marksmanship range. It's always great to get out to Chabot though; it's amazing that there's such a large area of lush green wildlife in the middle of high developed East Bay. We saw deer, a lot of small birds, and this turkey ambling across the highway. 

After heading back to the city, we went to Little Star Pizza on Divisadero and Fulton and shared a large deep dish classic. Consensus: very tasty! I think we unanimously like Little Star more than Zachary's, which I found too large, soupy, and unwieldy. Little Star's thin crust pizza looked amazing too. I was pretty hungry when we got there so the delicious smells wafting over from the next table really had my mouth watering.

The most unique part of Little Star's pizza is its crust. There's cornmeal in the dough, not just dusted on the outside. And I hear the entire crust is baked upside down, so it achieves a crunchy, unchewy texture like shortbread or croutons. It's definitely not traditional in any sense, but it's quite good and relatively light for a pizza. That is to say, two slices was very much a meal, but I did not get the McFeeling that comes with eating unreasonably greasy or junky food. Little Star gets my seal of approval (and that of about 1400 Yelpers).
