Hoover Restaurants Competing In Reach For The Pie Pizza Cook-Off

HOOVER, AL - Saturday, March 17 will be a pizza lover's dream come true in Hoover. Hoover’s finest pizza establishments are donating their time and talent to present their tastiest pizzas and compete in a contest for the title of “la migliore pizzeria in città!” (Best pizzeria in town). All funds raised will support local Special Olympic Athletes.

Hosted by the Hoover Police Department, the food-themed fundraiser is from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. at the Soiree Event Gallery, 2132 Lorna Ridge Lane in Hoover.

Set to pit their pizza-making skills against each other are Domino’s Pizza, IronStone Pizza, Jet’s Pizza, Publix, Salvatore’s Pizza & Pasta and Turner Foods Systems. The pizzerias will compete in four categories: traditional, gourmet, New York style and “no red,” as in a sauce other than red.

Tickets are $20. You can buy tickets at www.eventbrite.com. The tickets include two large slices of pizza, and you choose which pizzeria station to visit and then pick your slices. You can also buy additional slices for $1.
