Varasano's Pizzeria

About Varasano's Pizzeria

Bronx native, Jeff Varasano moved to Atlanta in 1998 & soon realized the style of pizza he was used to finding at every turn was not to be found in Atlanta. For a man with pizza in his blood, this wouldn't do. He set out to perfect his favorite NYC pie from Patsy's in Harlem. The 10 year odyssey included traveling the world's best pizzerias, experimenting with countless varieties of flour, sourdough cultures, cheese, tomatoes & temperature control techniques, pushing household appliances beyond their limits & visiting flour millers & oven manufacturers in the US & Europe. Varasano has studied everything from bread making to thermodynamics in his quest to craft the perfect pie. His journey has resulted in the destruction of many household appliances, a wealth of information available on his website, & the creation of an incredible piece of food, Varasano's Pizza. Each airy light creation is topped with a perfect balance of traditional Italian ingredients & crisped to perfection at 800°.
