Il Panificio Dinner

Everything Pizza/Pepperoni & Sausage

With pizza, itt's all about the crust.  Pizzas live and die by the the quality of their crust, and if one can find a crust that is soft and crisp all at the same time, then you have attained true pizza nirvana.  As Our Protagonist discovered when he took his son for a fun outing, the crust at Il Panificio is just so described, with the toppings all trying to slide off, almost embarrassed to even think of overshadowing this fundamental element.  It was so unlike a chain pizza in every way.  The toppings were of very good quality, in spite of their attempt at a hasty exit, but it's the perfectly-burned-ness of the crust that will make Our Protagonist return; that just-barely blackened, caramelized outer dusting that seals the deal on a well-wrought pizza.  Bravo.
