In this episode, we dive into the delicious world of Deep End Pizza in Melbourne, Australia. We are joined by owner and visionary chef Paul Kasten, who runs this one-of-a-kind pizzeria alongside his wife, Melbourne native Kate Paterson.

Paul’s journey is a masterclass in culinary pivot. After relocating to Australia during the lockdown, he launched a concept that challenges the traditional "one-style" pizzeria model. Instead of picking a lane, Paul decided to master them all.

✅ A Global First: Deep End is the first pizzeria in Australia—and potentially the world—to offer six distinct regional styles under one roof.

✅ The Big Three: Paul breaks down the techniques behind their headliners: Chicago Deep Dish, Detroit-Style, and New York Thin Crust.

✅ Quality First: Learn how they utilize high-quality, locally sourced Australian ingredients to honor authentic American pizza traditions.

✅ The Tech: We discuss the unique challenge of managing multiple dough recipes, techniques, and specialized ovens simultaneously.

Whether you’re a fan of the buttery crust of a Chicago pie or the lacy cheese edges of a Detroit square, this episode is a deep dive into the craft, passion, and logistics of running a multi-style pizza powerhouse.
