Your Pie, Savannah
While honeymooning on the Island of Ischia, on the northern tip of Naples, Drew French fell in love with brick oven pizza. Two years later, in 2008, he expressed his love by opening his first
rong>Your Pie location in Athens, Ga. The concept is to take home-made, hand-tossed dough, family-recipe sauces and fresh toppings, then use them to create your own pie. It's then fired up in about 5 minutes thanks to those brick ovens. In case you don’t want
to design your own pizza, Your Pie does have some favorites on the menu, plus calzones, paninis, bread bowl salads and gelato. Learn more at http://www.yourpie.com.
