The MOTO STORY
In the heart of a small upstate New York kitchen, an unassuming box of Chef Boy-R-Dee "instant pizza" was opened in the early 1980s. Unbeknownst to young Jay and his father, out poured not just dough, but the very seed of an unwavering devotion to crafting the finest pizza imaginable. What began as a simple Friday night ritual - a delicious excuse to connect - rapidly blossomed into an all-consuming quest for perfection. His father soon abandoned the box, meticulously developing scratch dough, concocting rich sauces on the stove, and relentlessly chasing that ideal slice.
This relentless pursuit led Jay to years of honing skills in bustling pizzerias and countless hours dedicated to research and refinement. A passion that began with a childhood bond evolved into a deep mastery of the craft. Today, that unwavering tradition of excellence lives on, now elevated by the captivating charm of our mobile wood-fired oven and the trusted reputation built over 15 years.
Drawing deep inspiration from the timeless traditions of Naples and the iconic pizzerias of early 20th-century New York City, we meticulously craft our signature sourdough pizzas. Each pie is cooked to perfection in a high-temperature, wood-fired oven, fueled exclusively by local hardwood. This generation of pizza artistry, honed over 15 years and hundreds of events, ensures your celebration receives not just exceptional food, but a truly unforgettable culinary event.
