No mention if the flight was paid for by taxpayers.

President's pizza preferences lead away from Chicago -- chicagotribune.com
Management at the trendy restaurant in St. Louis' Delmar Loop neighborhood confirmed Thursday that owner Chris Sommers and business partner Ryan Mangilardo flew to Washington with a suitcase of dough, cheese and pizza pans to prepare a deep-dish dinner for 140 White House guests Friday night.
No tax payer money is being spent on this pizza delivery...
"The president first tasted Sommers's San Francisco-style pies, served at his St. Louis restaurant Pi, while campaigning in Missouri last fall. An Obama supporter, Sommers offered to deliver a few frozen pies to the president after the election but was told he couldn't send food to the White House because of security concerns.
Instead, Reggie Love, one of the president's closest aides and a fellow fan of Sommers's deep-dish and thin-crust creations, arranged to have the pizza chef bring 20 pounds of dough and 3 gallons of sauce at Sommers's expense to the White House kitchen and cook there Friday."

St. Louis??? Chicago pizza is better. Seriously though, I know there are some good pizza joints in Washington, D.C.
It would be kind to let us know where. Pizza is actually one of the things that DC tends to get pretty low marks on...
