Buddy Koerner (left) founded the pizzeria with
his father John in 2012. Committed to a "it
takes a village" philosophy, Buddy is pictured

BUDDY KOERNER
FOLINO'S PIZZA
SHELBURNE & BURLINGTON, VERMONT

The wood-fired pizzeria is set in the Green
Mountains and shares a 5,000-square-foot
barn façade with Fiddlehead Brewery.
The Koerners recently renovated a
5,000-square-foot former funeral home in
nearby Burlington for its second location.
The counter-service concept has a popular BYOB policy at both locations.

IF PRESSED TO PUT OUR PIZZA
IN A 'CATEGORY' OF PIZZA STYLES,

SECOND LOCATION: WHAT
DID WE LEARN? It's too early to

I would say that it is half New Haven
"Apizza" style and Neapolitan. Since
opening in 2012, we have slowly
evolved our pizza into what we
consider to be the best pizza we can
make. So our style is a reflection of
what we think pizza should be.

say. We have only been open for
a few months. The one thing I
can say is that there will always
be unexpected obstacles and we
were not short of them during this
project.

OUR DOUGH IS SUPER SIMPLE.

It is naturally leavened. We keep a
starter alive, which is a symbiotic
culture of bacteria and yeast. The
other ingredients are flour, salt
and water. But as any true baker
will tell you these are not the true
ingredients. The true ingredients
are time and temperature and a
never ending quest to experiment
to improve. I believe that this is the
key factor in what makes our dough
different.

BYOB - THIS DECISION WAS
SIMPLY THE FACT THAT MY
FAVORITE RESTAURANT AT THE
TIME WAS BYOB. Bringing a six

pack into a restaurant and pouring
your own glass is something
everyone needs to experience. It
almost makes you feel like you
are 'bringing the party.' On top of
this novel feeling is the fact that
it saves money and customers can
choose any beer they please - not
just what's on tap.
