I wanted to dedicate an entire post to Tyler's brother, Steven's new restaurant in St. Augustine: Beach Street Pizza. http://www.beachstreetpizza.com/
We were especially excited when Brittney and Theo invited us down (see St. Augustine post) because we knew it would give us a chance to see Steven. He just recently moved to Florida from Chicago to fulfill his life-long dream of owning his own pizza place. He left everything behind in Chicago to start his new future and to build a new home in St. Augustine.
We actually left for the trip at 4:00am that Friday morning, so by the time we made it to our hotel, it was way too early for check-in. We thought, what better time to go grab a pie! So we headed south down A1A to Beach Street Pizza.
It's a quaint little pizza shop directly across from the beach. Jill, Steven's wife, had just made the permanent move down from Chicago the night before. So we were lucky enough to see both of them!
We were starving so we ordered a pie off the pipeline pizza section and actually received some garlic knots on the house. It was delicious!! The ingredients were so fresh. I loved the marinara sauce he used and thought the dough was fantastic. They are all Steven's very own unique recipes and I must say that he has outdone himself. It was great food and great company. We wish them the BEST OF LUCK!
If you are ever in St. Augustine, be sure to check out Beach Street Pizza!
*Since opening a restaurant is extremely hectic and chaotic, we didn't get to see much of Steven and Jill. But we were lucky enough to spend some time with them for breakfast early on Monday morning before we hit the road. After breakfast, we walked over to the check out the Fort (Castillo de San Marcos) on the island. Here is a picture of the brothers, Steven and Tyler:
