Stromboli Vs. Calzone

wolf · 11-18-2005, 12:05 PM

Calzones are usually smaller. Sauce is served on the side for dipping. Ricotta cheese (pronounced riGOHT) is in a calzone, but not in a stromboli. Either calzones or strombolis can have meats and veggies. Strombolis are best thought of as folded over pizzas, with all the gooey goodness baked inside the crust.

Calzones are under $10. Strombolis are $12.95 for a small, $15 for a large. The large will feed a family of 6. Two very hungry people can finish a small.

Very occasionally you will come across someplace that makes individual stromboli. Such places are usually run by Greeks, not Italians. They have flavors like Gyro in addition to Cheese Steak and Italian.

Places that make good pizza may make substandard stromboli.
