St. Louis's Pi to Make Pizza at White House at Obama's Request

Posted by Adam Kuban, April 8, 2009 at 4:07 PM

Remember all that hullaballo about Obama's favorite pizzeria being Italian Fiesta Pizzeria?

And then our man in Chicago, Daniel Zemans, came through with the news that, maybe, just maybe, Barack Obama's favorite pizzeria might be Pi in St. Louis?

Looks like he was right.

The president has asked Pi to come to the White House and make pizza for a pizza party.

"From what it sounds like, [the White House kitchen] the top of the line," [Pi partner Ryan] Mangialardo said. "They should have everything I need there to make the pizza happen."

I wonder if there's actually a pizza oven in there. If not, it's not like Obama couldn't add one. Seems presidents add things to the White House all the time. I'd go with a wood- or coal-burning oven.
