Some familiar Twitterers, from foodies to fashion experts, share their favourite pizzas to order in Calgary.

Beer Revolution Blazing Saddle Pizza

“As far as pizza goes in this city, I find that this beer-focused spot on the corner of 8th Street and 11th Avenue S.W. is fairly underrated. It’s by no means traditional – this pizza is loaded with steak, banana peppers and a ton more. Great crust too!” -Dan Clapson, Avenue food writer

Double Zero Pizza Chorizo Salami Pizza

“Our family usually makes our own pizza creations so we don’t often go out for pizza. However, I recently ate at Double Zero Pizza and we were able to sample most of the Neapolitan style pies. I particularly like the creamy texture and flavour on the chorizo salami with grilled red pepper, nicoise olives and goat cheese. I would definitely order that one again!” -Heather Mitchell, food blogger at heather’s eats, @heathers_eats

Famoso Pizzeria Thai Chicken Pizza

“It’s just like me – a little bit of East and a little bit of West. It’s a little cold and a little hot (spicy). Add a few chili flakes on top and it hits all of the right notes.” -John Leung, MasterChef Canada Top 50 finalist, @johanneslanger

Inglewood Pizza Chicken and Pineapple Pizza

“I love Without Papers in Inglewood, but for the Espy stylists on a busy day it’s all about Inglewood Pizza. Our/my favourite? Chicken and pineapple – a modified Hawaiian. The pizza is traditional with a thicker crust and has the perfect amount of sauce and cheese. Plus, it is amazing cold if we get too busy to eat it hot on sale days.” -Megan Szanik, Espy owner, @espyexperience

Manies Pizzeria “Your Choice” Pizza

“I love huge, absolutely loaded pizzas with meat, veggies, cheese, spices and bursting with colour and flavourful goodness. Pile it on, it’s go time. I really like Mannies!” -David Wald, social media/marketing expert, @djwald

Posto Burrata and Squash Pizza

“I love adding an egg to a thin crust pizza. I find it takes things to a whole new level of deliciousness. My new favourite spot is Posto Pizzaria & Winebar on 8th Street S.W. The burrata, squash confit, rapini, egg pizza is eggcellent!” -Katy Bond, event planner, @mskatybond

Pulicinella Prosciutto Pizza

“I’m a fan of Pulicinella. I love food that gets down to the basics and allows the ingredients to speak for themselves. Tomato sauce, mozzarella, prosciutto, parmigiano and basil.” -Chris Bennett, chef/caterer, @relevegourmet

Seniore’s Donair PIzza

“If the Ninja Turtles were from Calgary, Seniore’s Donair Pizza would be their go-to pie. When the only thing that will slay your mutant monster appetite is a sauce-tastic, creamy, garlicky and cheesy piece o’ ‘za with enough caloric energy to fuel a supersonic jet fighter. This is one place you have to try.” -Dale Einarson, Yelp! community manager, @yelpcalgary

Una 4 Maggi PIzza

“My absolute favourite pizza in Calgary is the 4 Maggi pizza at Una on 17th Avenue. I was eating it once a week at one point. It is so cheesy and decadent and the drizzle of honey and truffle oil on top gives it a sinfully sweet and rich flavour.” -Karen Ricards, marketing strategist, Mount Royal University, @socialgrrrl

Una Mushroom Pizza

“I love anything with mushrooms and Una does its mushroom pizza just right. It’s a perfect blend of ingredients, tastes great and extra points for the gluten-free option too.” -Aldona Barutowicz, fashion writer/photographer, @aldonab
