Brixx lawyer Joe S. Major
wood fired pizza ("best brick oven pizza around"), wood fired pita chips, wood roasted portabello, chicken, salmon, but no wood fired oven. Tricky. They're using wood as flavor instead of fuel. If it were my pizza place I would immediately brag very publicly about how my wood fired pizza process has all of the flavor of while being xx% better for the environment than Hard Knox Pizza's tree waster. However, I haven't had either pizza and for all I know the fake-fired way might have that gross liquid smoke taste.
When in doubt, buy local.
Exactly.
“They're using wood as flavor instead of fuel. If it were my pizza place I would immediately brag very publicly about how my wood fired pizza process has all of the flavor of while being xx% better for the environment than Hard Knox Pizza's tree waster.”
I can’t believe that anyone, business or private dwelling, would burn coal or wood in an urban or highly populated section of suburbia. It’s bad enough in rural areas but at least it has a better chance to disperse before encountering neighbors. Are there any controls, in this area, on this type of air discharge? Especially for businesses.
I live very near an Italian restaurant and as a result I’m addicted to spicy Italian food. I can’t go outside my house without becoming hungry from the food odors waffling with the breeze. However if they were burning wood to power their ovens I would be a very disgruntled neighbor.
Sad, but I have tried and
Sad, but I have tried and enjoyed very much Hard Knox pizza. I hope they don't have a big ol' carbon footprint. I didn't think about it or scrutinize their pizza cooking methodology. It tastes good and I understood they also make their own cheese that also tasted good. And they serve Woodruff draft beer! Not my favorite brews, but fresh and local and millions of times better than the standard and awful, large brand labels.
There are not many restaurants I really like, but this one made the cut. Hope the legal fluff disappears.
