Pizza Hut is rolling out a special menu in collaboration with Yeastie Boys Bagels. The pizza chain of stores announced the addition of "Big New Yorker Pizza Bagel," which will be available only in two states in the U.S.

New Bold Flavors Added to the Menu​

Restaurant Business Online reported that the new menu comprises a bagel covered in layers of marinara sauce, pepperoni, oregano, and fresh Parmesan cheese. It is set to debut this week through Yeastie Boys food trucks in N.Y. and L.A.

Pizza Hut will unveil the "Big New Yorker Pizza Bagel" at Rolling Loud's music festival in Los Angeles, which will be held from March 15 to March 17. The chain will then roll out the bagel pizza in New York from March 22 to 23. Lastly, customers will taste it again in L.A. from March 22 to March 24.

"We are thrilled to partner with Yeastie Boys to introduce the Pizza Bagel, giving our Big New Yorker pizza an even bigger New York twist," Pizza Hut's chief food innovation officer, Rachel Antalek, said in a statement.
