We’re nearly spoiled with the number of mom and pop shops that have unique specialty slices.

Pizza like you’ve never had before

Food & Wine highlighted them in their roundup of newer pizza joints because of how diverse they are with their pies, not just making pizza an Italian affair but a worldwide one.

Food & Wine writes,

The North African pizza is a complex affair featuring ras al hanout-seasoned and braised lamb shank in a harissa tomato sauce, Medjool dates, pickled shallots, sunflower seeds, and Urfa pepper. It is finished with a goat cheese lemon labneh drizzle.

Open daily from 4:00 p.m. - 11:59 p.m., One World Pizza is located at 49 Baldwin Avenue in Jersey City. Customers have the option of takeout or delivery.
