89. Love At First Bite: Meet The Couple Behind The Perfect Vitta Pizza

A whopping 93% of us feast on pizza at least once a month. In fact, 350 pieces of pizza are consumed every single second in the United States, with all of us collectively consuming about 300 billion pizzas a year. If you want a special slice, you don’t have to go too far: head to Canal Park or Central Entrance, where a delectable Neapolitan, wood-fired pizza awaits. Vitta Pizza first opened in 2011, and their slice truly stands out against the rest, wood-fired in-house for 90 seconds, resulting in a truly warm, delicious pie that makes you feel more like you’re dining in Naples than along the shores of the great lake. In 2022, a second location followed, both serving up exquisite pizzas, sensational salads and one-of-a-kind desserts. What started as an idea on a trip to Arizona has led Brad and Christie Erickson to where they are today: owners of one of the most popular places to grab a piece of pizza in all of the Zenith City. Hear how they got there in this mouthwatering episode.
