Klondike Pizza – out of Alaska and out of the ordinary
Adventures in food, fun and tall tales
Alaska has the highest moun- tains, biggest open spaces, most variety of wildlife, the best glaciers – but the best pizza? That’s at Klondike Pizza in quaint village of Arroyo Grande. The story is that after meeting at a blackjack table in Skagway, Alaska – the gateway to Klondike Gold Country – Mike and Pamela Dennis headed south, open- ing Klondike Pizza in September 1988. How they actually arrived
in Arroyo Grande is the subject of several original, true, authentic, and genuine tales about their adven- tures.
Peanuts, furry trout and tall tales
From the peanut shells littering the floor, the old Alaskan license plates, Mickey the Moose, a furry Arctic Trout and more, to those framed true, factual and genuine tales about the origins of Klondike Pizza, every view is reminiscent of Alaska. Music from the 1930s to to- day plays in the background. There’s even an epic movie that Pamela made about Alaska.
Realizing you have just entered an extraordinary place you begin thinking that one of those framed tales just might be true. “I am forever being told how romantic the way Mike and I met was,” Pamela said. Does it matter which tale is true? Sometimes the best tales are in the telling.
