Where Art Thou, Peter Taylor?

My observations,

I think he made all the pies for a while, but now has at least one other making pies most of the time.  Note, I have never gone on any really busy night, so I don't know maybe he has a team then.

I could go for a Raquel now....

Peter's version and style of Neapolitan pizza is among the best in the southeast U.S.  Here's a picture of a Pizza Lydia and Pizza Raquel (with sausage added) that we had when we last visited his great restaurant.

When I was there several months ago he was directing a person at the oven as to how to stretch the dough, dress it, etc...and I need to get back there as well

I've been a lurker for years, but had to finally register just so I can share my visit to Pete's place in Tampa last week.  I had followed his exploits on this forum for quite a while and was eagerly looking forward to meeting him and meeting Raquel as well.  Unfortunately, traffic intervened and I missed Pete at his restaurant.  However, I did get to meet Raquel and she was ever bit as wonderful in person as I had imagined.  We also tried the carnivore with the Sriacha Infused San Marzano Sauce and it rocked!  His staff did a great job and I'm already looking forward to a return trip when I'll hopefully get to meet Pete in person; he called my cell in response to a message I left about reserving two dough balls.  I must tell you that he is a gentleman as well as a fabulous pizzaiolo!

Sadly Pete's restaurant is closed. Woof Fired Pizza and Wine Bar on Bearss was my go-to Pizza place in Tampa and will sorely be missed.
I have a huge backlog of Pizza places to try now but so far none even come close.
I think the wuflu disruption really impacted business here and I think Pete had some medical issues that prevented him from spending enough time at the restaurant. 
Last day was Monday June 24 2024. 
I wish Pete well in retirement. This was a special place.
