Reviews
"I will never forgive my parents for not sending me to Pizza Camp." * Jimmy Kimmel, comedian / pizza eater *
"Joe Beddia is plowing a wonderfully irreverent path in food, a path illogically anchored in a reverence for quality and technique, but matched with a completely punk DIY ethos. This book is a map of his mind, a mind you should read into. Pizza Camp is ahead of its time." * Hugh Acheson, James Beard Award-winning chef and author *
"Never have I encountered an individual so singularly focused on his craft. Joe Beddia is hilarious, intelligent, and lovingly produces the best pizza in the f*cking universe." * Michael Solomonov, James Beard Award-winning chef and author *
"Not all pizzas go to heaven, but there is definitely a puffy cloud waiting for St. Joe Beddia's work." * Chris Bianco, James Beard Award-winning chef and author *
