This curious-looking pizza is called "lamjoun" and you can find it at the 515 Club on Center St in Santa Cruz. The principal contributors to heartburn in this dish include ground lamb, feta cheese, pine nuts and spicy red pepper sprinkled on top of flatbread. Goes well with the similarly over-priced beer they serve. It's all very yuppiefied ethnic fusion cuisine you can find in the downtowns of most small, white cities like Santa Cruz, Davis, Santa Barbara, etc. Tasty as all get-out.
We were at 515 casually celebrating Molly's departure from the shop. A few weeks ago she landed an engineering job in the Yay Area. She's only been at the shop for nine months, and, as Luke pointed out, it's like she has given birth....to herself. Rather than go stale in retail she was motivated enough to apply for jobs pertaining to what she actually studied in college. Imagine that.
I might join her and my fellow eater, Ryan, in the Yay Area soon. Mills College accepted me a few days ago. By this fall I'll be ready to sample the cornucopia of its bounteous offerings.
