The Pizza Show: Los Angeles
Ойын-сауық
Los Angeles might not be known as a pizza city, but our host Frank Pinello is ready to show you why it should be. The West Coast doesn't have a set of pizza "rules" as strict as New York's, so their freedom to experiment with toppings and style translates into delicious and unique pizza. From BBQ chicken pizza at California Pizza Kitchen to smoked salmon pizza at Spago, California pizza is all about the toppings. Los Angeles' food scene is diverse and delicious-and so is its pizza.

Can we please bring Frank back for a new season? This guy is the kindest, sweetest dude, not to mention an awesome, deferential host. He never makes it about himself, he makes it about the restaurants and the people he interviews. This guy is a legend. I'm literally watching these videos YEARS later. More pizza show please.

Italians still eat the peasant versions of their food. Pizza is still almost universally just a tomato base with a couple slices of fresh mozzarella and some basil leaves. It's nice, but it's insanely simple and gets old quick. I prefer the experimentation of the Americans when it come to Italian food. They took something good and made it better.

Well said, the best part of food and restaurant business is innovation, and u must innovate to stay relevant. Like look at the food scene today Giant over the top milkshakes, giant unconventional sandwiches, this is how restaurants build a brand, and build a client base. None of which would be possible without innovation. No one really looks for restaurants who make simple by the book dishes. The fad currently is over the top mom conventional dishes and that's the way it's been for years

Frank Pinello is a legend to me. He's such a great host and even more amazing for giving us all this AMAZING pizza knowledge. So amazing this episode dropped today, because I've been watching the Pizza Show episodes all day by chance. It's like the pizza planets have aligned for me.
frank is the best. the way he interacts with people is just so real, you just have to smile
That salmon pizza looked pretty lit ngl
I think this series is one of the best things on KZread. Watching Frank talk about pizza makes my day brighter!!
Frank is, by far, the best vice/munchies host. I hope The Pizza Show continues as long as he's willing to do it. Good shit.
Made this a few times, the Spago Smoked Salmon Pizza... And just made it for Christmas Day... Going to become a new family tradition!
Wolgang Puck being, well Wolfgang Puck and Frank is there taking it all in..so humble
Frank never stop being you and doing what you do.
the asian guy is so high he's low now
I owe LA for launching my pizza career. From the east coast and lived there 11 years, got so sick of what they call pizza (along with hipsters like the dude at the start) that I started making my own for myself and regular folks.
Frank is awesome, more please!!!
gotta say frank Is not only one hell of a host but also seems like one one hell of a person. his positivity is really inspiring and he honeslty just looks seems like a down to earth person. respect.
Best Munchies host hands down. I'd love to see more of Frank in the future no doubt
I love this show! Speaking from and Italian and from Italy, among other things I love how convivial the pizza servings are in the US. We are used to a whole (medium size) pizza for the individual, instead it seems you guys serve a bigger pizza which is sliced and shared....I really like that

is it just me or is the munchies pizza on the intro literally looks like the BEST PIZZA EVER. like I'll take that one over any of these on all shows
One of the best series munchies has ever made hands down.
I like this dude i don't think i could watch a show just about pizza if it wasn't for him
"If you think of a pizza as a thing to put other things on" - genius dude, genius.
Idk about this, it’s very “LA” I know nothing but I’ve been obsessed with the dough lately. I love the simplicity of tomato, basil, mozzarella/bread crumbs
I wish when the time comes that I go bald I could pull it off as well as frank does.

Oh and don't forget to cook the basil with the pizza as the Italians insist. *Whispers* even tho it's better put on after. Their pizza is just so simple and old fashioned, I mean we make the same pizzas here and we call it the margarita pizza. It's the standard but it's definitely not the best pizza.
