Day 6, 2012; Gabriel's (Cleveland, TN)



DAY 6: OCTOBER 6th, 2012

LOCATION: Gabriel's (Cleveland, TN)

ORDER: 1 slice of cheese, 1 slice of Stockyard

GUEST: Mary McCary, Joe McCary, Jay Taylor, Amy Taylor, Lauren Taylor, Susan Taylor, Robin Rothman

REVIEW:
I admire the hubris of Gabriel's to advertise itself as the "best pizza in the universe."  Since food reviews are all subjective, I want to think that owner of Gabriel's truly feel his or her pizza is the best.  The large number of specialty pies supports this argument.  In addition the topping selection, crust choices, and pie sizes at this pizzeria are also vast.  Featuring pepperoni, sausage, ham, bacon, and beef, the Stockyard injects an entire butcher shop under a double layer of stretchy mozzarella cheese.  By itself, the cheese provides a creamy consistency, plenty of cooked tomato sauce, and a firm-yet-chewy gas powered stone baked crust.  Gabriel's expertly combines quality ingredients with knowledgeable preparation to create the best pizza in the whole wide area of Cleveland, Tennessee.
