Detroit-style pies with caramelized edges, tender crust

























"Chachi’s rectangular Detroit-style pies have a brittle layer of cheesy caramelized edges, and the crust made with Shepherd’s Grain flour (a.k.a. Washington wheat royalty) is incredibly tender, spongy, and almost sweet—one of the most flavorful we’ve ever tasted. There’s no sonic boom when biting down on one of these slices, and that’s exactly what we love about it. Especially in “The Abuela” pie, topped with ricotta, spicy pepperoni, Calabrian chili paste, fresh herbs, toasty sesame seeds, and a drizzle of honey. Chachi’s Pizza pops up on Sundays in Ravenna with ordering done via Instagram DM earlier in the week, often paired with a dessert collaboration. There are some White Center pickups in the works, so stay tuned to their Instagram if you live in South Seattle. We haven’t been here yet, but want you to know this spot exists." - Team Infatuation

"With co-owner Michelle Galvin born on Maui and with deep family ties to the island, I supported the company’s pledge of $25,000 in matching funds for a GoFundMe benefiting Maui United Way and its donation of all profits from Hawaiian pizza sales from August 18 to 31 to the Maui Food Bank; as Galvin said, the devastation is not just to a dream destination but to her homeland and her heart, and the road to recovery will be long and arduous." - Sophie Grossman
