Keep looking! |
My girlfriend and I finally found acceptable pizza, and Italian in general. It's a little family owned place called Roberto's la Dolce Vita. It's pretty close to Neapolitan pizza, so it's not bad, but not my favorite -- the minestrone was out of this world.
The American pizza chains, Dominos, Pizza Hut, etc. don't count. That is _not_ pizza, and barely qualifies as food. (Sorry, I lived in Upstate NY (more Italians than you can shake a stick at) for 10 years. I became a pizza snob.) The Chip/Kebab places serve a sort-of pizza. It's a little weird though.
Thanks for the Pizza Express suggestion. I'll try it out sometime. In the mean time, I'll take your advice and "Keep Looking."
I'll have to start a pizza thread later. I plan on making some home-made pizza soon. I just have to try to monopolize a kitchen during some weird, off hours.
