Square and delicious

The duo of Anand Morwani (of Brewbot) and Rohan Mangaonkar (of Pack-a-Pav) have teamed up to serve Detroit-style square pizzas (above) . The base undergoes a 72-hour fermentation technique to form a whole-cheese crust with crispy edges. Some wacky combinations include Detroit red top with secret marinara sauce, house cheese blend, and marinara drizzle; galactic garden with spinach, caramelised onions, pickled red chilli and even a holy pepperoni with Italian pepperoni to choose from.
