Private Tasting No. 1

Here are some photos from the first private tasting event we held. Going into this, we were uncertain we would be able to cook a large volume of pizza quickly enough for a crowd, so we kept things small — about 20 people. I invited some very early Slice supporters and close friends — if we were going to fail, I wanted to fail in front of a friendly crowd. I think we were pretty successful.
