(sing along now, everyone!)...you are what you swallow, so the next time you feel hollow, don't fill up with just any kind of treat! This goes for every kid or six-foot ath-e-lete, what you really are is what you eat! (wahoo!)
Am I the only one who remembers the little singing paleolithic Spongebob dude who would sing little songs about nutrition between Saturday morning cartoons?
If you believe the cartoon dude upstaging Picture Pages with Bill Cosby, then you know that you are what you eat. From the myriad signposts, awnings, restaurants, menus, bars, and outposts offering pizza, I can say one thing with confidence: Pittsburgh is Pizza. At least more than a little bit.
(My hometown is a pizza loving place, too, so I enjoy this)
But, while there are many decent pies available near me, I am not yet in love. Can anyone suggest what the best pizza in town might be, and why? I don't need anything fancy or whatnot, just great crust, with great sauce, and great cheese, cooked with greatness. And I am not into deep-dish. Just a preference thing. It is still pizza, which makes it not bad, but I prefer a lighter crisper texture.
Tomorrow, if I finish other things and get moving on stuff in my real life: a review of Pizza Sola. The truncated version: tried it three times, didn't love it.

Pasquarell's Pizza House, Mckees Rocks. Is it a surprise that they are my favorite? Not your thin, dainty, california style crust, but good ingredients, with the taste of the old country. The proprietor and his wife are the only ones that know the recipes and they barely speak english. If you plan on eating it at a specific time, make sure that you give them at least two hours because they are busy and understaffed. I usually get peppers, hot sausage and onions.
Oh yeah, and Mineo's ain't bad either.
Thanks for the recommendation! I am definitely going to try Pasquarelli's this weekend.
You're the 12th person to suggest Mineo's ;) I can walk there from my house on a warm day, and somehow I still haven't been there. I will blame it on the 9 (!!) (yes, that is Farenheit) degree day...
grazie, Kevin.
