Pizza

I'm on a quest to find decent tasting gluten free pizza.  The crust really does make all the difference. 

I've tried frozen crusts to which we add our own toppings.  Judy G's are just ok, and are Egg free so my little guy can have them.  Udi's are a little better - thin and crispy, which I like.

I tried the Bob's Red Mill pizza crust mix which is supposed to be "the best" gluten free pizza mix, but no one in our family liked it.    I found a mix at Home Sense made by Gallo Lea that I plan to try next time the craving strikes. I will update with the results.

As for eating out/delivery we have tried:

Boston Pizza - sweet, doughy, bread-like crust.  Not my favorite. $8.89 for an 8" pizza.

Panago - square crust, not as thick as Boston Pizza, but chewy.  Not bad.  Medium Size only, $4 extra (so $14 for a medium pepperoni)

Pizza Delight (Fort Saskatchewan) - thin crispy crust, fresh toppings and they have a good selection of other GF items on their menu including Garlic Cheese Fingers (you can add bacon!)  They came in 10" size but I can't remember the cost.

Pizza 73 - we tried this last night and it was decent.  The crust is round, thin, and crispy.  Comes in cheese, pepperoni, hawaiian, vegetarian.  I ordered online and it was delivered 20 minutes later, fresh and hot. $9.99 - $10.99 for a 10".

I am optimistic more restaurants will begin putting out GF pizza's, and I can only hope the recipes will get better over time!

Has anyone come across GF pita shells?  We used to love making homemade pita pizza's for lunches but I've yet to see GF pita's.
