How a Babylon pizza gets made

  1. A cook stretching pizza dough in the Café Babylon kitchen

    Stretched by hand

    Every base is stretched by hand on the counter, to order.

  2. A stretched sourdough base with sauce and cheese on a pizza peel

    House-made sauces

    San Marzano tomato, pesto, ghee-roast masala or butter garlic, all made in the kitchen.

  3. A Café Babylon cook sliding a pizza into the tiled pizza oven

    Into the oven

    Baked until the rim blisters and the cheese bubbles.

  4. A pizza fresh from the oven being finished with a brush of oil

    Finished at the pass

    Basil, hot honey or microgreens go on last, and it’s out to the garden.
