I missed you CPK. Since I moved to San Francisco I have not been to CPK once. There are so many good mom and pop pizza shops in this city I actually felt bad coming here. The only reason I went to CPK this week is because I had an event to go to at Yerba Buena Gardens and I was with a CPK noob! That's right! She has NEVER been to CPK before. I guess as a Cali girl this just seems like a obvious dinner spot.

When we sat at the bar memories started shooting back to me as I remembered the cool counter top, open flame fire, and the amazing smell pizza goodness in the air. We ordered a Hawaiian pizza (not too adventurous because I had to ween the noob in a bit) and their amazing Cobb Salad. Of course we shared. All I can say is I got the CPK fever after enjoying this taste from home restaurant. I will be coming back to get my favorite Chipotle Chicken Pizza, which is just to die for! YUM!

Watch your pie bake in a wood-fired oven at this national chain with global culinary influences. In Short
Founded in Beverly Hills in 1985, these eateries with the trademark yellow, black and white color scheme have spread nationwide. The decor consists of simple wood and glass with roomy black leather booths. The thin-crust pizzas come with innovative toppings from Asia, Latin America and the Southwest; signature pizzas like the Original BBQ Chicken and Jamaican Jerk Chicken compete with old standbys like pepperoni and traditional cheese. Pastas, salads, soups and sandwiches round out the menu.
