    Hedo, you ever have pizza from Mulberry Street in Beverly Hills?  That was my favorite when we lived in LA.

    Ha!  We covered Lou's in that other thread.  Most liked it, it seems.
    Lou's deep dish could replace exlax.

    Pineapple on pizza is a tragedy and should be illegal. 

    Putting pineapple on pizza is Ike putting ketchup on pasta. 
    It's like putting ketchup on a hot dog.

    Joseph's pizza in Glendale Heights (suburb of Chicago).  Amazing. Perfect amount of dough. Sausage with hot giardinera...perfection!

    Oh hell yeah, F Me.  We used to go there regularly when my dad was alive.  Sprinkle on some garlic powder, chili flakes if so inclined, same for parm.  Fold in half and dig the fuck in!

    Owned (partially) by this wonderwoman - reminds me of Jessica Lange in ways.

    Fucking gorgeous and tough as balls.

    The pizza is much better eaten there vs. delivery, but during our winters - and I use the term loosely - their lasagna, minestrone and garlic bread are the perfect warming comfort food.

    For sure on delivery vs in house.  Never had anything other than pizza there but it is legit.

    Growing up in VT, the pizza was shit unless you made it yourself.  (My parents were both from NYC so I learned at an early age what real pizza was)

    That being the case, I would go through the frozen pizzas to find what I liked.

    My favorite?
    The frozen chef boyardee old school pepperoni pizza.  Cardboard crust?  Shitty little chunks of pepperoni.
    I loved it.

    These days I actually would choose the pepperoni digiorno.  Make sure to leave it in until the pepperoni starts to burn a little.

    If you have to go Frozen....what do you prefer?

    Good pie is at the place of making.  There is a place about two miles away that I like because it is hot.  Cold pizza?  Only when drunk or the morning after.

    I am at times fond of Totino's pizza rolls or Mama Celeste's "deluxe for one"

    Great thread, love my pizza! There was a little place I use to go to in Kitchener when I was a teenager called Chubby's Pizza, best pizza I have ever had. Still remember the place and its been over 20 Yeats ago I was last there. They use to load it up with bacon and their sauce was out of this world. I wish they were still around

    If I had to go frozen, I find the Dr. Oetker Thin Crust pizza to be the best out there

    I'm a bit of a pizza snob and always prefer certified neapolitan style over all others.
    Such as my local pizza place....Pizzeria Locale in Boulder....

    Frozen Pizza should NOT be part of this conversation!

    Also if they cut your pizza in squares, unless it's a square pie, then you shouldn't be a part of the conversation also.  It's called a "pizza Pie" not a pizza grid...

    If you like your pizza with chicken and ranch as toppings please start another thread...

    I'm going full on snob on this thread, lol!!!

    Ha!
    There is a time and a place for frozen pizza, my friend. 

    Neapolitan is the bomb.

    Gonna try Silverton & Batali's place Mozza in LA one of these trips out there.
