Food & Drink,
TikTok isn’t just for dance moves and song snippets. It’s one of the best places on the web for recipes, and sometimes, the whole pop-culture world comes together to deliver drool-worthy recipes from A-List celebs.

GOOD VIBES - Ellen Once Again
The Michelin Star-rated Italian fine dining spot has outposts in New York, Miami, Las Vegas and Hong Kong, but its delectable line of sauces is available in markets across the country and online.
When founder and owner Mario Carbone saw Beiber’s creative shout out, he decided to get in on the fun and create Carbone’s own elevated take on the at-home treat, and we’ve got that recipe for you to try.

The recipe varies just slightly. There’s no lemon or truffle oil in Carbone’s take, and they add a bit of Ortiz-brand anchovies and chili paste from the Calabria region of Italy for some extra oomph. The steps are otherwise just as simple to follow, and all in all, you should enjoy your pizza toast in less than 20 minutes!
Carbone wants you to give both a try and let them know, who did it better? Only one way to find out!
