Mountain Mike's Pizza may be best known for its pizza and wings, but now the chain is expanding its menu to include a tasty new appetizer called 'Garlic Not-Knots.'
Not exactly a traditional garlic knot, but also not not a garlic knot, the new Garlic Not-Knots dish is a delicious take on garlic bread. The new Garlic Not-Knots are oven-baked, handmade to order, and feature a delicious blend of the brand’s signature freshly made dough folded around savory layers of garlic, butter, and cheese. As Carol DeNembo, Vice President of Marketing for Mountain Mike’s Pizza, explains, "One delicious bite of the ooey-gooey garlicky goodness, you’ll agree these knots are NOT your average knots…they’re better! And we could 'knot’ be more excited for our guests to experience the new Garlic Not-Knots!™ for themselves."
