Food.Fun.Stuff: HomeMade Pizza Company Opens in Arlington

[ 0 ] September 23, 2009 | Johnna

HomeMade Pizza Company makes its way to Arlington. Fresh ingredients is all we can say. The HomeMade Pizza Company prides itself on having fresh, all natural ingredients and bake-at-home pizzas. Here’s the drill: You pick your toppings, they prep it for you, you take it home, throw it in the oven and then…vwala! You have dinner. Pure homemade deliciousness that wasn’t really made at home, you get me?? We can vouch for these pizza’s, they’re good.

This fall, Arlington residents and beyond (*We didn’t forget about all of you in Shirlington, Alexandria, etc.) can bring home ready-to-bake pizza’s topped with everything from fresh spinach and caramelized onions to southwestern chicken sausage and prosciutto. Salads and sweets will also line the menu with bake-at-home Big Cookies. So on Thursday, there will be a big party to welcome the pizza joint to the neighborhood.

The Low Down: At 11 am, the company will kick off the celebration with free fresh produce, pizza grilling (*Yum) and free samples. From 1 pm-8 pm, you get to meet the founders (*Mr. Deutsch has been doing this for 12 years), sample pizzas, salads, ice creams and cookies…ohhh, free goodies.

We welcome tasty pizza to the area’s restaurant roster especially where Oprah has already given her thumbs up (*She featured as part of her “Best Pizza In America” special). What are you going to get on your pizza??
