Surprise ingredient: The Santa Monica Pizza (12 inch, $16.99) at Pink's Pizza (710 W. Gray, 713-521-7465) is as yummy as it sounds. On a thin-crust base covered in marinara are ample amounts of mozzarella and sun-dried tomatoes, gorgonzola, prosciutto, eggplant and marinated artichoke, brushed with garlic-infused olive oil. There's one more ingredient, though, and it may surprise you, but it really makes this pizza. It's cranberries — yes, cranberries — which add a sweetness that is the perfect balance to the tartness of the gorgonzola. The last bite left us wanting more.
