Jay Jerrier, owner of Il Cane Rosso, put it best: "Santo Merda!" (Holy Shit!)

It's not too often that the best pizza shop in town offers up its authentic Neapolitan red-brick pizza oven to one of the best chefs in the city. A chef whose restaurant takes reservations a month out (but has three seats at the bar).

Il Cane Rosso even has Uygur's special pizza online already:

David Uygur from Lucia will be our guest chef on Monday night - how about a pie with N'duja, tripe & breadcrumbs along with a smoked duck & herbed ricotta pie!!

Il Cane Rosso is taking reservations at 214-741-1188.
