Veltre's Pizza opened up not too long ago in Plum Borough, PA. They moved from their Oakmont location where they had been since the 1970's. The new shop is nice and it's great for me because it's on my way home.
I worked for Tony, the owner, for a short time back in the mid 1980s in Oakmont and ate at the Swissvale location many times as well. Tony is a great guy. He takes pride in the food and the service in his restaurants. When I saw he opened the new location, I was thrilled.
One item on the menu which wasn't there back in the day is the Italian Hot Dog. I tried one a few weeks ago and now I'm addicted. I started bringing them home and now my entire family is hooked. Pizza crust, cheese, and pepperoni shaped into a ball. Dipped in sauce...pure heaven! I can't stop eating them!
If you're out in Plum Borough, stop by Veltre's Pizza. Get some Italian Hot Dogs or anything else on the menu. Ottimo cibo!!!
