\"Caradaro<\/a>Arguably Milwaukee’s oldest pizzeria, the Caradaro Club<\/a> was started in the mid 40s, as the popularity of pizza grew in the US due to returning European theater GI’s, who had experienced in while serving.<\/p>\n

Starting with a fully-proofed, very thin crust made with low gluten flour, the Caradaro is all about \u201ctavern style\u201d pizza, cracker thin crust, cut in small squares. Toppings are from quality suppliers and are amply distributed edge to edge on the pie. Fabulous cheese. Sauce leaning towards \u201csweet\u201d as pure tomato products should.<\/p>\n

I went for the \u201cWorks\u201d a common configuration in Milwaukee, sausage, pepperoni, mushrooms, onions, green peppers, and black olives. Ask for the \u201cKitchen Sink\u201d if you want the \u201cWorks\u201d plus anchovies.<\/p>\n

The reputation of 75 years in business holds up. So often I go into a new city and hit the \u201carea’s favorite\u201d to find it’s a place resting on its laurels from decades ago. Not so with the Caradaro Club.<\/p>\n

The proprietor \u201cWally\u201d is affable and a story teller. You can take a minute to “meet him\u201d in this video from a pizza trade magazine, starting at around the 2:20 market.<\/p>\n
