That’s amore
Geoff Kies takes his pizza seriously. So seriously, in fact, that when he had the idea for his forthcoming Perrysburg pizza spot 5th Street Pub, he trained with the top: Roberto Caporuscio, the vivacious Italian owner of renowned NYC pizza place Keste Pizza & Vino. “The pride and love that goes into their pizza — they take it very seriously,” Kies says. That’s not the only authentically Italian thing he’s got going on: 5th Street Pub’s Neapolitan pizza oven and even the tomatoes are coming straight from the Boot. The opening is tentatively planned for February 10th — we’ll be lining up for a slice of the deep-fried variety. 105 W. 5th St. (at the corner of Louisiana Ave.) in downtown Perrsyburg.
