My First Time |
|
During my two-year residency in the Ingersoll neighborhood, I made it over to Gusto Pizza Co. a handful of times. The pizza is delicious. This isn't your Papa John's/Pizza Hut/Northern Lights stuff. This is fresh, original, tasty, thin crust pizza. One day Lucas mentioned there was now a second Gusto location in West Des Moines. I don't know if I was more surprised about the expansion of this great pizza joint or that Lucas knew something about Des Moines that I didn't know. I love my husband, it's just that usually I am the one introducing him to new things. This information came in handy twice already. When my parents were in town about a month ago, we took them to the new West Des Moines location. It had a very similar look and feel to the Ingersoll shop with modern, minimalist decor. It's located in a little strip mall on University near the Waukee city line. Then, Lucas' parents were in town and in the mood for pizza. We went back again. (So to be fair, this post is actually about my second time at Gusto Pizza's west location. I simply forgot to blog about it last month, probably because I was caught up in the glass-blowing which we did on the same day.) We ordered the Spartacus and the Saltimbocca which are two of the more popular pizzas. They were delicious. We were worried that we would not be able to finish both of them, but we polished them off without having to unbutton our pants. That's what I call success. So the next time you find yourself starved after power shopping around Jordan Creek, just jog up to University and relax with a delightful pizza and refreshing beer.
