Wildcraft Sourdough Pizza

Wildcraft Sourdough Pizza (9725 Culver Blvd., Culver City, 90232; 310.815.8100) is the new Italian spot that replaces the shuttered Le Saint Amour in Culver City and it’s opening Monday. Jed Sanford, owner of Abigaile in Hermosa Beach, is behind this project and he’s brining along Abigaile chef Tin Vuong to oversee lunch and dinner. It’s a casual, neighborhood type place with graffitied walls and two tiered table.

Wildcraft Sourdough Pizza will offer Neapolitan-style sourdough pizzas topped with seasonal California ingredients, in addition to California/Italian small plates, and California wine and 16 craft beers on tap. The restaurant’s signature sourdough pizza crust is created from a wild yeast and takes a couple days to make in a dome that you can see through a glass. It’s then cooked in the 901-degree oven for about 90 seconds. This pizza oven was built “brick-by-brick in Naples” by third-generation Neapolitan oven-builder Stefano Ferrara (he’s behind Sotto’s pizza oven).

Pies come in varieties like Burrata with squash blossom, cherry tomato, burrata, garlic and orange oil; the Carnage, which is topped with porchetta, salami, pancetta and fennel sausage; Truffle with mushroom, fontina, taleggio, fried sage and white truffle oil; Bacon Fontina with wood oven radicchio, bacon, fontina, and oven cured tomato; and Clam & Pork with fresh clams, pork belly, oregano, onion and chilies. They also have snacks like fried green olives; paninis and salads. Whole menu here.
