Creating the Perfect Calzone With Actress Shay Mitchell
As part of the exclusive Off The Menu Club, members can enjoy secret menu items at some of the best restaurants around Los Angeles. Alyssa Julya Smith joins actress Shay Mitchell at Prova Pizzeria in West Hollywood to discover one of the secret menu items from this week, called the Shay Calzone.
Shay explains that the calzone is named after her because she is Chef Vito Iacopelli's number-one fan, and perhaps the only person who loves pizza more than him. Their combined love for pizza resulted in the calzone that now appears on Off The Menu.
Chef Vito brings us through the process of creating a calzone, as Shay reveals her favorite restaurants in Los Angeles, which mostly include Italian cuisine. OTM Club is $20/month. A portion of the proceeds goes to feeding those in need.
