Description

Grab a date or two and join ATX Vegans, Li'l Nonna's and The Austin Winery for Friday night Vegan Pizza and Wine. RSVP Required. We've partnered up with Austin's finest food & wine folks for a Neapolitan Pizza Night! Come out to The Yard, bring a date and enjoy table service at The Austin Winery for discounts on Pizza and Wine all night long. 10% of the night's sales are going to ATX Vegans to help fund our Free Food Fest in early 2022! FAQ's: 1. What is a Neapolitan Pizza and how is it different than the standard menu favorites at Li'l Nonna's? Unlike their NY-Style, which is baked at 550 degrees for 8 minutes, the Neapolitan is baked at 900-1000 degrees for 90-120 seconds. While the NY-Style has a more crisp and chewy texture, Neapolitan pizzas are more soft and pillowy with char spots, which is due to the fast high heat bake. The dough is all naturally leavened with sourdough starter and fermented for 48 hours. Interestingly, some gluten-sensitive people notice it to be much easier to digest, especially because it's made with all organic flour. Pies are personal sized at around 10 or 11 inches and the cheese is soy-free and made with a cashew base. Their standard soy/pumpkin seed based cheese will be available for anyone with a cashew allergy. and (as always) the ingredients will be as organic and local as possible. 2. Where do I order and can I make reservations? When you arrive, head right over to The Austin Winery and let them know you're here for the Neapolitan Night with ATX Vegans and they'll handle the rest! There are no reservations available for this event, so please arrive when you'd like. We always say the earlier the better, just in case of a sell-out. ATX Vegans will not be tabling at this event, but we might be around taking some pictures! Be sure to say "hey!" if you see us. 3. What is on the menu for the night? Li'l Nonna's and The Austin Winery are still finalizing the menus. What we DO know: There will be 3 versions of the Neapolitan Pizzas for order, and glasses of wine included in the packages for each person or table. In all, it will be an affordable date-night with delicious Vegan food & wine! Please follow us on Instagram to hear menu updates.
