The Best Slice of Pizza in LA: Chef's Night Out with Pizzanista!

You often hear people lament that you can't get a good slice of pizza in LA-and for the most part, that's true. Except in the case of Pizzanista!, a pizza place in the city's arts district started by former pro skateboarder Salman Agah and his wife Price.
We follow Salman and Price for a night out in LA as they hit up some of their favorite local spots. First, we head to Roy Choi's new restaurant Commissary at the Line Hotel, where the group sips on drinks and chows down on some interesting vegetables described as "carrots that taste like hot dogs." Then it's off to Ruen Pair for the papaya salad that Salman swears by. Our last stop is Monty Bar for drinks, and then it's back to Pizzanista!, where Price celebrates her birthday by cooking up a stinging nettle pizza for their friends.

I also respect how they didn't feel the need to get all drunk and high just to look hip, like most of the other groups have. Kept it quiet and relaxed, my style.

@Lowtendo 9 жыл бұрын

It seems like these people own a pizza place that allows them to still go out at night or on the weekends. The other episodes seem to have executive chefs from huge restaurants that appear to have way less time off since they always mention how "this is the first time I've been out in months " do I feel like they go a little more wild with their nights. Also those episodes are way better cause they were more loose on camera and actually drunk/funny

Andrew Norton I like the other episodes, they're entertaining. I just identify with the laid-back scene here and it's not so posh and look how rich and hip we are, as in most of the others.

aappierce Oh yeah these people are way more relatable but personally I like watching people do outlandish things and eat places I can't instead of watching some people do the same stuff I do every weekend.

@aappierce 9 жыл бұрын

I hear you. I def admit the excitement level has been greater and the tour of restaurants much more classy and high-end in every other ep. These guys went to a dive-looking Thai place that looks like the places my wife and I frequent. And they just ordered like reg paying customers with no camera crew. Weird switch-up from the norm, if refreshing.
