The owners behind the Bay Area's Sushirrito launched a new restaurant focused on mochi pizzas.
There’s a new Bay Area pizzeria crafting pies with an unexpected ingredient: soft mochi. Mochiko Mochi Pizza, the first of its kind, opened Saturday in Burlingame after a soft opening phase early last month. Inside Mochiko, customers will find a selection of rare pizzas with an unexpectedly soft, chewy center reminiscent of mochi desserts. “People stop in their tracks when they hear mochi pizza,” co-owner Ty Mahler told SGATE. “It’s something about the two words together.
During a conversation, they realized the Bay Area didn’t have designated Asian pizzas beyond toppings alone. Yen said that the conversation got them thinking about pizza dough specifically. Around the same time, both Yen and Mahler’s children were huge fans of mochi muffins, doughnuts and other mochi treats. That’s when the business partners connected the dots. “Basically just started playing around with different mochi dough recipes,” Yen said.
