Open just before Christmas, HELL Pizza on Lonsdale in North Vancouver is the most recent addition to the area’s culinary experience.  HELL Pizza provides an unconventional selection of choices.  While the names range from the seven deadly sins to a pizza called “Mordor” the food itself is anything but hellish.  Flavour, fresh ingredients, and a surprising option of gluten free, vegetarian and vegan pizza are available.  The pizza is fresh, crust is light and tasty toppings are not drowned in the usual slap-dash paint-by-numbers sauce. 

A wide variety of prepared toppings include everything from the typical pepperoni and standard fare to the “Damned” which features mushrooms, fresh spinach, avocado, pineapple, sun-dried tomatoes, onions, cashews and Camembert.  The “Pandemonium” features chicken, Camembert, and cranberry sauce for a truly unusual taste combination, however, I’m still looking for the pandemonium…
While the names are amusing and a little confusing, the pizza is tasty, well prepared and full of flavour.  The crust is light, and not oily and the toppings stay right where you want them as opposed to in your lap or on your napkin.

Now for the real innovation (and perhaps the most delicious offering); Dessert Pizza.
Two selections:
“Unearthly” - banana, berries, chocolate, white chocolate and custartd
“Temptation” - apple, cinnamon, apricot, berries, crumble and custard
Both on a pizza crust base and served in a small 8.5 inch round.
Now here is a tasty treat I will be back to enjoy !  Not too sweet, but a fantastic treat after a meal.  Make sure to include one with your order.

Kudos to the chefs and staff who make this not just the newest addition, but a real destination for dinner in North Vancouver.
