Roberta’s pizza is coming to Toronto (for one night)

If you love pizza like I do, you’ve surely heard about Roberta’s, the ramshackle pizza joint founded by a bunch of DIY-ing Bushwick artists in 2008. Since then, they cultivated their own gardening operation, founded an online radio station built inside a shipping container, released a cookbook, and became a household name on the strength of chewy, thin-crust pies with names like “Speckenwolf” and “Tonya Charding”.

For one day later this month, dear Torontonians, you won’t even have to hop a Porter flight and sit on that weird, cramped train into Penn Station to get one of these bad boys. Roberta’s founding pizza chef Anthony Falco will be in town at Citta (92 Fort York, at Bathurst, 416-623-9662, cittatoronto.com) for a one-night-only pop-up on Tuesday, September 22. In addition to a selection of their famous pizzas, Roberta’s will also be bringing the tunes from their recurring Tiki Disco parties, courtesy of DJ Ikhan.

The pop-up dinner begins at 5 pm, and Citta strongly encourages making advance reservations (to make one, send them an email here).
