Food cart offers artisan pizza
By Jim Cornelius

“Pizza, for me, is the bal-
ance of my favorite things,”
says Danny St. Lawrence.
Those things include
organic vegetables, fine
meats, artisan cheeses — and
really, really good crust. It
starts with the bread, in fact.
“ I ’ m a b a k e r, ” S t .
Lawrence told The Nugget.
“That’s how I cut my teeth in
the restaurant industry.”
All along, though, there
was a dream to provide
locally, ethically sourced
wood-fired artisan pizza in
a mobile shop. And now that
dream is realized with the
Boone Dog Pizza food cart.
Danny’s wife, Kelly,
noted that the food cart was
out and about in Central
Oregon through summer and
fall, setting up shop at events.
“We needed a place to
land through the winter,” she
said. “We want to serve the
community.”
It’s the community where
Kelly grew up, and she
knows it’s hard to make it in
business through the winter
— but the couple is confident
that there’s a market. With
quick turnaround, a customer
can order a pizza to go and
head back to the office or off
home where it’s warm and
enjoy a high-quality, satisfy-
ing meal at a fair price.
The pizzas on offer run
in price from $8 to $12,
and they’ll be rotating them
according to the availability
of fresh ingredients. They
also offer roasted veggie
dishes.
“We embrace seasonality
and all that comes with that,”
Danny noted.
Creating exceptional pizza
is an art form and a life-way
for the St. Lawrences.
“We feel like we are part
of a food movement,” Danny
said. “We want to support the
local economy; we‘re trying
to support businesses that
share our values.”

Baking in a wood-fired
brick oven in a mobile unit is
inspiring to Danny, keeping
him in touch with earth, fire
and air.
