Any Way You Slice It

(TMNT image used without permission.)

Like many Americans (and turtles), I love pizza.  I enjoy finding new places to go to grab a slice or two (or three or four).  Several places I've tried over the past few months have been outstanding and certainly worth a mention.

Jioio's has a really unique pizza.  It has a very sweet crust and sauce.  I like mine with green peepers, onions, and sausage.  They have 2 locations in Greensburg and Latrobe.  Go, eat, enjoy!

Frank's Pizza and Chicken has four locations in the Pittsburgh area:  Millvale, Shaler, Glenshaw, and Troy Hill.  Their Buffalo Chicken Pizza is AWSOME!!!!  Love it!!!  Their chicken is super delicious as well.

Shelly Pie Pizza in Turtle Creek is great.  Plenty of room to dine-in.  Their pie is the same as the famous Vincent's Pizza which is legendary in the 'Burgh.  You can't go wrong with a Shelly Pie.

Calliente Pizza has several locations in the Pittsburgh area.  Their pizza is super delicious.  I've only been to the Aspinwall location.  It's a great place to grab a beer as well.  Check them out online.  I'm sure there is one near you.

Napoli's Pizza has totally great Sicilian Pizza.  I've been enjoying their pizza with peperoni for many years.  Love it!  If you are in Monroeville, stop in and get some. 

Baldy's Original Pizza in Greensburg has some yummy pizza as well.  There is room to dine-in and eat it fresh out of the oven.  Grab an order of fried zucchini while you're there.  So good!

Ginny's Neighborhood Pizza Joint in Export has some excellent pizza as well as other fantastic food selections.  Drop in, grab a table, relax, and enjoy some great food.

I plan on giving you the low down on other pizza shops and any other places with good food in the future.  Stop by this friendly little blog and see what I have to say about them.  Arrivederci!

Dinner and a Movie

Last night was date night.  Typical...dinner and a movie...nothing fancy.



Dinner was at Caliente Pizza & Draft House in Aspinwall, PA.  There are several of these places around the Pittsburgh area and they have a great reputation for their pizza. While the restaurant was just okay and the service left something to be desired, the pizza was AMAZING!!!!  I highly recommend it!  The menu had tons of options for food and drinks. I would go to one of their other locations and happily explore more of what they offer.   



The movie we saw was About My Father.  Very entertaining movie. If you've ever seen the comedy of Sebastian Maniscalco, you'll get the gist of the film.  Robert De Niro is great in it.  The rest of the cast does a fabulous job of playing over the top characters in this funny romp about the complexities of families.

All together a very enjoyable evening.  It's nice to get out and about every once in a while.
