Metro Detroit: Novi’s Buddy’s Pizza
In 1936, Gus Guerra opened Buddy’s Rendezvous in Detroit, on Conant at 6 Mile. Originally is was a blind pig, since prohibition had just ended a couple years earlier. The “Detroit-Style Pizza” legacy began in 1946 when Gus Guerra and his team made their first square-shaped pizza.
They used square forged-steel pans, “borrowed” from local automotive plants that used them for holding automotive parts.
They were able to produce a pizza with a very light cheesy and crispy crust, which is now known as Detroit-Style Pizza. This was something that had never been done before and was the first known square pizza in the country. Now, more than 78 years later, the pizza style has become a national favorite to most people . . . unless you are from New York or Chicago.
