Today's Special: Miguel's Pizza | Kentucky Life | KET

Despite its backroads location, Miguel's Pizza is known around the world. Rock climbers and campers have gathered for tasty pizza, sandwiches, and breakfast for over 30 years here in the Red River Gorge area of Powell County.
Miguel Ventura was born in Portugal and grew up in Connecticut. After some time in California with his own art studio and then returning to Connecticut, he and his wife decided to make a dramatic change in lifestyle and moved to Kentucky.
The Venturas rented an old store and began selling ice cream there. In 1986, they turned to pizza and found an eager market of hungry campers and climbers. Today Miguel's offers 45 different toppings on both pizza and sandwiches, and they make breakfast too, so no one has to explore the canyons on an empty stomach.
