A new pizza place featuring my favorite style of pizza will be opening in Ames. Can't wait!

I will never understand how Ames can apparently support such a ridiculous number of pizza places, especially since at least half of them are high-end, but I am really glad we can! You can't throw a rock in this city without hitting an awesome pizza joint, and this looks like it'll live up to that standard. These people really have their act together; I hope they get business down there, since they're literally next to Old Chicago.
When are they opening? I would like to see some place that knows something about Italian spices, such as garlic, oregano, and basil, that you can typically find on pizzas in Italy, which I think are very tasty. Too many places today offer "yuppy" pizzas, as my brother would say, with everything in the refrigerator piled on top but which lack true mozarella cheese and a good tom. sauce plus those seasonings I mentioned.Quote:

The Neopolitan-style pizza place that was located in N. Grand Mall didn't last long. I'm not a fan of that style...big floppy, thin pieces. Hopefully this new place is better.
The place in N. Grand wasn't really Neapolitan style. At least, it wasn't to me.
I *think* it may be the same guy.Quote:

I'm sorry, I read the title and couldn't help but think of a pizza with Strawberry, vanilla, and chololate ice cream on it.
:wink:
Anger rising, want pizza in WDM, rumble rumble.
Sorry, that was my stomach, it's not particularly articulate.

I have had pizza in Italy and I dare say American pizza is better. They seem to skimp more on toppings in Europe than in the states.
