[Phaedrus]

I'm saddened that so few remember (or know of) the place of pizza heaven once known as "The Pizza House". Herbed crust, high quality cheeses, sauce that isn't loaded down with sugar, and bottomless cups of pop.

Truly great pizza, since 1953, but just couldn't survive multi-generational issues.

I used to live in Ames during the summer, and got in on the very first meals that Ruttles, Superdog and Battles served. My buddies and I used to circle new restaurants like vultures, and got to talk to all three of those guys.

Anyone else remember "The Burger Baron"????

They died of excessive food quality, poor location and not enough capitalization, but for one bright shining moment, they had some killer burgers and waffle fries....
