What do gourmet pizza toppings/ingredients have to do with Mike’s Road Trip? Well, I eat out a lot and am quite the pizza connoisseur, so I thought I’d come up with a list of my favorite pizza ingredients to inspire all the pizzeria’s out there. Mike’s Road Trip is all about trying new things. Tell me which is your favorite? Here are mine, in no particular order…

Fresh…and even dried figs
Roasted garlic (raw sucks, it stays with you forever)
Thinly sliced Yukon Gold potatoes
Roasted Yams or Sweet Potatoes.

Thinly sliced melon
Artichoke hearts
Grilled Shrimp
Fresh Mozzarella (aka Buffalo cheese)
Pear (thinly sliced of course)

Funny the top few. Sweet Potato, corn, and potato are not even considered “gourmet” here in S. Korea, and have become favorites of mine.

  Hi Nate…thanks for stopping by! I would not have thought that “gourmet pizza” would be a popular staple in Asia…interesting to know. Cheers, Mike!

I like dessert pizza. It spread low-fat chocolate sauce thinly on dough. It covers with sliced bananas and bake. Thanks!
