The Frank Pepe Pizzeria Original Tomato Pie has been added to the brand's winter special menu to provide customers with a way to satisfy their cravings for comfort food in a heritage-driven way. The pizza pays homage to the brand's founder Frank Pepe and starts off with the brand's signature crust topped with crushed Italian tomatoes, olive oil and grated Pecorino Romano cheese. The incorporation of garlic also builds on the original recipe to give it additional flavor that will work well for enjoyment during the cold winter months.
Grandson of Frank Pepe and Co-Owner Francis Rosselli spoke on the Frank Pepe Pizzeria Original Tomato Pie saying, "Launching this pie, especially in our 100th anniversary year, is yet another way to pay homage to where — and how — it all began. Carrying the legacy my grandpop built a century ago is the honor of a lifetime."
