Yeah Yeahs Pizza, located on Ochterloney Street in Dartmouth and on Oxford Street in Halifax, is committed to “high quality ingredients done simple and well,” according to co-owner Josh Nordin. Its two best-selling slices are the margherita and its classic pepperoni—which contains pepperoni that Yeah Yeahs acquires from an undisclosed source. That’s right: Proprietary pepperoni.
“We source these rad, tiny little pepperonis that get really crispy in the oven,” explains Nordin. “It's definitely my favourite. And we do a different version of it, called the spicy pep—it’s got banana peppers, white onions and a little bit of honey. That's absolutely my favourite slice.”
The key to a Yeah Yeahs slice? Sticking with the principles that got them started in the first place, Nordin adds: “Even though every ingredient we use continues to go up in price, we’re just not willing to use an inferior product.”
