Slice - February 25th, 2012

This week takes us to Slice - a wonderful pizza restaurant in the Lakeview area of Birmingham.  Slice takes pride in using local ingredients for their food and also serves up local beer on draft.   This restaurant is close to Gina's office but she'd never been there but had heard good things about it and noticed it seemed busy.

We were a little early for dinner but there were plenty of other pre-concert (Jimmy Buffett at the BJCC!) diners at Slice.  We opted for the Perfect Pepperoni pizza with Good People IPA (draft) for Jay and Shiner Bock for Gina.  They had an extensive beer menu with lots of choices at very reasonable prices.  There were some good appetizer and salad options but we thought pizza and beer was the perfect pre-concert meal.

The pizza did not disappoint.  It was straight out of the stone oven and cooked to perfection.  The sauce was a slightly sweet red sauce with plenty of pepperoni and cheese.  The 12 inch pizza was perfect to share.  They have a lot of other pizza options that we'd like to try such as the Old School, BBQ, and Super Cheese.  We'll definitely make it back to Slice when our plans take us to the downtown area again.  Gina is also planning to try Slice at lunch as their website recommends the slice of the day with salad.
