Innovative and creative pizzas that first brought diners running to California Pizza Kitchen in the Philippines are on a comeback. CPK has brought back five of its original pizzas: Goat Cheese Pizza, Peking Duck Pizza, Tostada Chicken Pizza, Santa Fe Chicken Pizza, and Teriyaki Chicken Pizza.
Goat cheese pizza
These vintage pizzas from CPK’s first menu will become available in all nine stores nationwide starting July 1. In the new CPK Vintage Pizza Passport promo, every purchase of a vintage pizza earns a stamp. Guests who try out all five vintage pizzas can exchange the fully stamped passport for P500 worth of CPK gift certificates. The promo runs until August 31, 2013.
All five vintage pizzas were created with their original ingredients but with a California twist. The vintage pizzas are now created with CPK’s new hand-tossed pizza dough.
“Our vintage pizzas are made with a much improved and authentic hand-stretched pizza dough recipe. Our long-time patrons will find these vintage flavors familiar yet exciting. They were all bestsellers when they were first introduced. But CPK would not be CPK without infusing something new and different to these pizzas. We redid the dough and it now enhances all the ingredients. These are vintages pizzas made better,” explains Archie Rodriguez, president and CEO of Global Restaurant Concepts Inc., the local partner of CPK.
The hand-stretched vintage pizzas bring out more of the flavors of each pizza’s ingredients. All of them are tasty and unique CPK creations. “Hand-stretched pizza is the traditional and authentic way of making pizza, the original way CPK made it when we first started,” says Mr. Rodriguez.
Goat Cheese Pizza is the vegetarian choice in the set, made with goat cheese, mozzarella, sautéed onion, grilled eggplant, red and yellow peppers with tomato sauce and garnished with parsley. Early varieties of eggplant were smaller and white, earning the vegetable its name. As a pizza topping, grilled eggplant is unique to CPK.
Peking Duck Pizza features roasted duck, shiitake mushrooms, mozzarella and hoisin ginger sauce. True to its Asian inspiration, the pizza is also garnished with fried wontons, hoisin ginger sauce and slivered scallions. The ingredients complement each other bringing a new level of unforgettable flavors. Crispy fried wontons add extra texture to this pizza.

Tostada Chicken Pizza features Southwestern black Beans, Monterey Jack, Queso Quesadilla and grilled chicken breast topped with lettuce, chunky fresh tomato salsa, ranch dressing, scallion greens and crispy tortilla strips. The pizza is unique for its Southwestern black bean sauce, which is widely used in Latin America in soups, stews and sauces. Black beans originated from Mexico and have been used in their cooking for thousands of years.
Another Tex-Mex offering is the Santa Fe Chicken Pizza with grilled chicken breast, caramelized onions, Mozzarella cheese and topped with cilantro, chunky fresh tomato salsa, sour cream and fresh guacamole. The caramelized onions serve as the pizza sauce’s base. It has a mild sweet taste that matches perfectly with the aromatic hint of cilantro and the rest of the ingredients.
Lastly is Teriyaki Chicken Pizza, made of teriyaki chicken strips, Mozzarella, Queso Quesadilla, red and yellow peppers, red onions, and slivered scallions with a teriyaki-ginger sauce. The pizza has a distinct flavor and lustrous picture, true to its roots in the teriyaki tradition. Teriyaki is perhaps one of the most popular Japanese cooking techniques, with “teri” meaning luster and “yaki” meaning to grill or broil. CPK’s Teriyaki Chicken Pizza adds a tasty differentiator to its teriyaki sauce that guests will surely welcome.
