Michigan’s first biga fermented pizza, Bigalora ferments its pizzas for 72 hours before cooking them for 90 seconds in a 900-degree oven. The restaurant has everything to be expected of an Italian place: pizza (red and white), meatballs, pasta, chicken parmesan, salad, and minestrone soup. Additionally, Bigalora has some unusual plates for its Italian roots, like a crispy Brussels sprouts appetizer, wood roasted salmon, and Tuscan steak frites. There are also vegetarian and gluten-free option for many items, including all of the pizzas and pastas. Bigalora prides itself on using no commercial yeast or added sugar, under the philosophy that the company feeds its dinees “like family.”
