The Caprino pizza at San Marzano is remarkably flavorful and well balanced. Topped with Fontina, goat cheese, caramelized onions, shiitake and button mushrooms, roasted garlic, thyme and white truffle oil, it’s a medley of rustic flavors that soothes the soul. Baked in a brick oven, the crust is chewy and neither too thin nor too thick. Even as leftovers the next day, the flavors of the Caprino emanate brightly when reheated.
