Emmy Squared Pizza has initiated a unique promotional campaign involving the creation of several region-specific pizzas, each developed and named by the management team of its local restaurant in cities across the United States. This approach diverges from a typical centralized limited-time offering by delegating menu innovation to individual locations.
The resulting region-specific pizzas include creations such as the Thyme Squared in New York, featuring steak and caramelized onions, and the Mambo Crispy Chicken Pie in Washington D.C., which incorporates the local Mambo condiment. In Charlotte, Virginia, and Atlanta, individuals can enjoy the BBQ-forward DJ's Southern Pizza, while in Philadelphia, consumers will be delighted by the Min, Don't Be a Jerk pie with jerk chicken, red onion, bell peppers, miso green ranc,h and green onions. Miami boasts The Miracle Mile Pie, and in Las Vegas, of course, The High Roller takes center stage.
