Smoked Venison Pizza

Say “Bon Appétit” to a pizza which showcases local quality ingredients that are full of flavour, proving that less is more. 

With two main local producers featured, each slice is full of succulent pieces of cold smoked Venison layered atop a creamy bed of Havarti cheese. 

Adding a delightful twist, plump cranberries steeped in aromatic red berry tea infuse each bite with a burst of sweetness and warmth. This gourmet pizza offers just the right combination of savory and sweet.
