Sure, corned beef and cabbage may be synonymous with St. Patrick’s Day celebrations all around Tucson, but you’ve also gotta show the potato some love on the green-hued holiday.
On Friday, March 17, Falora is serving up a very special pizza for St. Patrick’s Day at 3000 E. Broadway Blvd. — for one day only, too. We don’t mean to stress you out but if you want to try this pizza, you’ll need to head into the restaurant today.
The new creation is called The Píotsa, which means “pizza” in Irish. This pie is loaded with oven-roasted fingerling potatoes, fontina, feta, and pesto. The pizza is vegetarian but it can be made with vegan mozzarella if you’d rather substitute the feta.
If you’re looking for something to do after completing your trip to Falora, there’s a lot going on in Tucson this St. Patrick’s Day. Check out our full roundup of events.

More about MattAt a very young age, Matt Sterner was gifted with the artistic ability to masterfully roll a burrito to the highest of standards, but the wrapped medley of delicious innards wasn’t his first love. Matt’s first true love was a combination of reading, writing, and creating. He grew up reading comics, the ingredients list of his shampoo and conditioner bottles, choose-your-own-adventure books, and the Scrabble dictionary — something he found useful when challenging his grandmother to a game.
He attended college at New Mexico State University and graduated with a degree in Digital Filmmaking. One of his favorite classes was screenwriting because he became responsible for the story’s birth before it came to life on-screen. After school, Matt took on numerous positions at a local television station in Tucson. From dealing out stories about heartbreak to producing “fluffier” content for a lifestyle broadcast, he learned what it takes to adapt to the many emotions the world of media can stir. Since 2017, Matt has dabbled in the culinary world of Tucson as well as San Diego, California from time to time.
If you’re in the mood for strange stories, head over to his pride and joy, wonkytimes.com. And in case you’re curious — yes, after all of this time, he still manages to roll a killer burrito.
