Seafood pizza
Near Richmond Fisherman's Wharf, there are many small eateries serving a variety of flavours, which are frequented by gourmets and linger. These humble and even somewhat shabby little shops often contain unforgettable and excellent food. One of the most famous pizzerias is Steveston Pizza, which is said to be a world-famous pizzeria.
I first came into contact with pizza in the 1990s, when I tasted Domino's and Pizza Hut in Shenzhen, which had just entered the Chinese market. At that time, I was attracted by the fresh way of eating this scone with a variety of different ingredients, and the taste buds felt a completely different experience and amazement. I have always considered myself an unqualified foodie, and I instantly became a lover of pizza.
Whenever you work overtime and miss the normal meal time, you can't help but suggest and implement a pizza takeaway. At that time, there were still very few merchants who ordered takeaway delivery to the door, but Domino's pizza was always delivered to the door, and sometimes large bottles of carbonated drinks were given, such as Coke, Qixi and so on. This kind of service, coupled with good taste food, gives us more reasons to enjoy pizza frequently, which in turn deepens our love of pizza.
After many repeated attempts, we determined which flavors we liked. Whenever there is demand, cycle through several flavors such as seafood, Hawaiian, and pepperoni. Even if I later went abroad, went to many countries, and tasted pizza with different flavors made by different chefs, I still basically identified these flavors. After continuous reinforcement, the choice of taste has basically solidified. Thinking that you have a general understanding of different flavors of pizza, you will not have too many choices, and there will be no surprise and amazing feeling.
Life has taught us again and again not to be limited by our limited knowledge and opinions to think and judge, not to sit in the well and watch the sky. Just the recognition of pizza, reality gave me a very profound lesson in practical testing of truth.
I remember a hot summer afternoon, I was tossing and turning with a few people from the moving company for hours, and it was when I was tired and hot, thirsty and hungry, and my son rushed to replace me. While handing me the car keys, my son told me, "There's water and pizza in the car." "Let me eat a little pad first and pad my stomach." He said apologetically, "The pizza may have been cold." Then he added with a furrowed brow, "It's your favorite Hawaiian (taste)." ”
Exhausted, I sat in the car, unable to wipe the sweat off my face, and drank half a bottle of cool mineral water in one gulp. After soothing the heat a little, I opened the featureless cardboard box next to me, picked up a slice of pizza that didn't look special, and took a big bite. An indescribable sensation spread in the mouth, and the taste buds opened up at once. I bit down on the pizza in my hand one by one, devouring it one after another, and killing a slice of pizza in three strokes and five divisions.
"It was so delicious!" I secretly marveled, but in my heart I thought that it was because I was too hungry that I magnified the joy and happiness of eating. A slice of pizza was at the bottom of the stomach, and my strong hunger was basically hidden. Pick up another slice of pizza and start savoring it calmly. After carefully tasting it, I realized that this delicious feeling had nothing to do with hunger or not, it was real.
Unlike the average Hawaiian pizza, this pizza is full of ham meat, and when you bite it down, the meat has more ingredients than the thin layer of dough. The salty and juicy ham meat, with moderate sweetness and sourness, the combination of fine particles of pineapple flesh and creamy rich cheese is a feast for the taste buds. Hawaiian pizza like this is one of the best Hawaiian pizzas I've ever had, not one! I learned later that my conclusions were still limited. This family's pizza is not only Hawaiian, many flavors of pizza are the best pizza, can not be found anywhere else.

My son laughed and complained that in Vancouver, especially after living in Richmond for so many years, I didn't take him to eat this pizza when he was young. Missing such a good food, how can he, who is known as the "Little Foodie of Vancouver", feel bad? I heard that this store has been open for several years, and I wanted to use the excuse of "new store" to prevaricate and was instantly blocked. In order not to leave any regrets, lead the whole family straight to the pizzeria to taste the freshly baked "best pizza".
"Hearing is false, seeing is believing". When I arrived at the field to see, I knew what was called the small name of the shop, and I appreciated that the business of the small shop was hot and not built. It is said to be a famous little pizzeria all over the world, really small!
Located on the corner near Fisherman's Wharf, the shop has a glass counter that resembles a refrigerated cabinet, displaying soft drinks such as soda, juice and mineral water. Next to the glass counter there is a low table with a cash register and several PDAs for customers waiting for an order to refer to the menu. Inside the counter was an open workshop, and there were several dark-haired, high-nosed and deep-eyed old and young men busy. The cashier girl was a beautiful girl with blonde hair and blue eyes, and her attitude was particularly kind.
The storefront is very small, so small that three or five people can't turn around standing in front of the counter. Most people can only queue up outside the door. Although there is a high platform and wooden benches by the window, it is impossible to eat here. The owner rented the adjacent storefront and put on simple tables and chairs benches, self-picked disposable cutlery and free purified water for people to eat steaming pizza nearby. Some people can't find a seat, and they don't want to miss the freshly baked taste, so they simply eat it on the street in front of the store.
Small shops abound in bullish places. First of all, all pizzas are sold in their entirety, and no other pizzeria slices sell them. Second, all pizzas are one size, twelve inches a piece, with no distinction between large and small, and there is no choice in the thickness, crispness, or softness of the billet. No matter what it was like to hear such a bullish rule at first, after eating a freshly baked pizza, only "delicious" was left, a thought.

Although this shop does not deliver goods, you can make a reservation by phone and pick it up at the storefront. This saves you the time spent waiting in line, and when there are many guests, it may take a while to arrive on time. Still, the delicious food is worth the wait.
In addition to the Hawaiian flavors mentioned earlier, this pizzeria is best known for its variety of seafood pizzas. Perhaps close to Fisherman's Wharf, the freshness of the seafood is unimaginable. It is said that they buy the freshest seafood every morning as a preparation, and every day is sold out, and there will never be any overnight ingredients. Looking at the hot business, it is estimated that there is nothing left every day.
Many people's once favorite princesses are fresh prawns, huge tiger shrimp and smoked salmon, as well as slightly bitter, tender and refreshing fresh vegetables. The delicious taste is endless. Unfortunately, there is no such thing in the menu now. Looks like it changed to "butterfly"? Lobster pizza, topped with a few delicious and plump lobster tails, plus prawns and smoked salmon, makes people feel good value for money. After eating it, the feeling of being a nightmare is hard to forget.

Want to know how much the most expensive pizza is worth? On the menu of this small pizzeria, there has been a pizza with a price tag of 850 knives plus tax, that is, RMB 5,000 yuan a year. I used to think, is this pizza covered with gold leaf? After reading the menu, I realized that there was only Russian black caviar, sprinkled with Italian white truffles that were "snow-like". I thought that pizza at this price was just a gimmick, and it was estimated that it would not sell a few all year round. After careful investigation, I learned that "poverty limits imagination". This pizza is not a year, nor a month, but is sold every week.
The highest priced pizza
I recommended this shop to my friends and family, and I received praise from them without exception. Many people became loyal fans of the shop. Foods that you will miss after a long time are talking about these delicious pizzas. The outbreak of the epidemic has suddenly erupted, and various prohibitions have been introduced and become more and more stringent. People can't resist the temptation of food, or they will visit the pizzeria, buy a pizza or two, and share it outdoors with relatives and friends.
Unexpectedly found that the appearance of the small shop was renovated, the original same style, often because of the seafood and can not close the lid, no characteristics of the cake box has also been replaced with the same style as the store decoration style, a large cardboard box. The small space for dining next door was closed, and the cash register was blocked directly at the door, so I could only stand outside the store to order and pick up goods. Without the endless stream of tourists, the number of people queuing up is significantly reduced. There are a lot of cheaper varieties on the menu, and the most expensive pizzas are preserved, perhaps to accommodate the different needs of most people who have to stay at home?
This small shop directly marked "highest rated" on Google Maps, produces pizza that is indeed the best pizza and will not disappoint people.
