Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Notability Шаблон:Infobox restaurant Baby Blue Pizza (sometimes Baby Blue Woodfired Pizza)[1] was a vegan pizzeria in Portland, Oregon.[2] The restaurant operated from July 2019 to January 2022, closing during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Description

The restaurant served seven[3] vegan pizzas with sourdough crusts and toppings like meatless pepperoni.[4][5] Sometimes gluten-free crusts were used.[6]

History

Vegan chef Odie O'Connor, who previously worked at Gracie's Apizza, began operating Baby Blue as a food cart on Hawthorne Boulevard in southeast Portland in July 2019.[7] Approximately two years later, O'Connor related the business to the Rose City Food Park. He closed the cart for approximately one month during the COVID-19 pandemic, allowing him to explore making other types of pizza and open a separate small pizzeria called Boxcar Pizza.[1][8][9] Baby Blue closed in January 2022; employees were given the option to work at Boxcar Pizza.[10][11]
