As part of Eater's first ever pizza week, chefs at five LA restaurants that don't serve pizza agreed to make a special limited edition pizza-inspired creation served just this week and next. Every day we'll highlight a new pizza, today we have the Umami Supreme from Umami Burger.
The Umami Supreme, a pizza and burger smashed together into one, was created by Umami Burger's test kitchen team, and above, chef John Herndon assembles the creation. Think cheeseburger meets supreme pizza, a pepperoni and sausage blend wagyu beef patty topped with house-made pizza sauce, melted burrata cheese, and a trio of mushrooms sauteed in thyme, oregano, red wine and garlic. The Umami Supreme is on offer now for $12 at Urban, Valli, and UMAMIcatessen.
