The best thing that I’ve been introduced to in 2020 is the Detroit style pizza. Easily snuck into my top pizza preferences during quarantine. Crust - cheese - toppings - sauce. These are the order of operations to create the Detroit style pie. Thick and crispy edged crust is A1 at Pi-Squared. Freshly grated mozzarella cheese. Spicy pepperoni pieces with a very flavorful and savory Italian seasoning. The best bite is on the outer edges when the pepperoni gets crispy/crunchy from the carmelized rims of the crust - yum. All topped off and finished with the pizza sauce which is the final touch. Placing the sauce on last is what allows for a fluffier crust as the cheese slowly melts down the sides. This square shaped pizza is light and airy inside and contains just the right amount of thickness making a brilliant bite each time. Definitely more a puffy crust guy rather than thin so this strikes straight down my lane. Only $9.50 for the small and $14.50 for a large, you can enjoy Pi-Squared’s Detroit style pizza outside at their six feet apart outdoor seating tables along the koi fish pond on a nice summer South Carolina evening. Socially distance with some dog walkers that stroll by on the sidewalk, on-look the scenery and trees in the backdrop behind the pond, and enjoy some background music from the speakers overhead creating an all-around peaceful pizza atmosphere.
