When it comes to pizza, I'm a carnivore. I like the classics like pepperoni, sausage, ham, bacon, etc. No green stuff for me. 🙂 When I try a new pizza place, I usually try something simple like single topping pepperoni or sausage. It makes a good baseline comparison.
Locally, there are a couple of places I like. One is staffed by a bunch of hippies and is fun. Last time I was in there, there was an employee wearing a NORML shirt. I think I was the only one to catch it and joke about it, which he found amusing. There is another good place right down the road from my office that is really good. It's called Pizza Shack, and it isn't much more than a shack. There are maybe 8 tables or so inside. The best pizza I ever had was some hole in the wall joint in Miami Beach. My mom lived there for a few years during my teenage years. She knows how much I love pizza, so she took me there one summer while I was visiting. The place was run by an older Italian dude originally from NY. He had his whole family helping out. I can't remember the name of the place, but I do remember the pizza. Simply amazing.
