The Waldorf at Glory Days Pizza, 4821 W. Sixth St.

Looking through the hallowed archives of Off the Beaten Plate, it’s pretty clear that my colleagues and I have a thing for innovative pizza creations.

It stretches all the way back to Sara Shephard boldly trying out Fat Freddy’s Wake n Bake pizza and continued most recently with the Spaghetti Pie at Tad’s Pizzeria, which I sampled last month.

This week welcomes yet another twist on the beloved Italian treat in the form of a salad-meets-pizza mashup called the Waldorf.

This pie from Glory Days Pizza features all the signature components of a Waldorf salad (Granny Smith apples, dried cranberries, chicken and glazed walnuts) on a marinara-less crust.

Thankfully, the folks at Glory Days ditch the Waldorf’s traditional mayonnaise (not exactly appealing on top of a pizza, at least for us mayo-haters…what up, President Barack Obama) in favor of brie cheese spread.

Where to get it:Glory Days Pizza, 4821 W. Sixth St.

What you’ll pay: $10.89, for a small

Try it with: Some hot pepper flakes for a little heat

Also on the menu: Other gourmet-leaning pizzas like The Greek, Mediterranean Veggie and the Caprase Pie (yes, it’s like a Caprese salad, but with slightly modified spelling), plus lots of make-your-own options. Beyond pizza, Glory Days offers an extensive menu of sandwiches, appetizers, chicken wings, desserts and a few salads — though if you’re looking to pair your Waldorf pizza with a Waldorf salad, you’re out of luck.
