Surt is a standout sourdough pizzeria in the Carlsberg Byen district of Copenhagen. Founded in 2019 by Sicilian pizzaiolo Giuseppe Oliva, Surt specializes in pizzas made from a daily handmade sourdough starter, creating a unique, crispy yet soft crust. Oliva, previously a key figure at Bæst pizzeria, brings his expertise and passion for high-quality, seasonal ingredients to Surt.
The menu features innovative pizzas like the "Sur Pie," with dough fermented twice as long for a pronounced sour flavor, and options topped with ingredients like Hindsholm pork sausage and house-made fermented chili. The informal, open-kitchen atmosphere allows guests to interact with the chefs, enhancing the dining experience.
Surt has quickly gained a reputation for its artisanal approach and commitment to local ingredients, making it a favorite in Copenhagen's food scene. Its focus on quality and innovation distinguishes it from other local dining establishments.
