Only been there (original location) once and it is indeed world class stuff. Need to get back there.

Had Santucci's square pie for the first time last night. I though it was tomato pie, but there was a layer of mozzarella under the sauce. Tasted great room temperature and reheated. Now that's amore

The problem with cheese-under-the-sauce is that it get deprived of oven browning.

But it serves as a moisture barrier, keeping the crust from getting soggy, even with that sea of red sauce.

First pizzaiolo to solve that will be a hero.

I wonder if anyone tried putting half the cheese under, then half on top?

there's that delaware chain that does the swirl of sauce on top.

tl/dr: add enzymes to the dough and to the sauce

Yeah seriously, don't get all the people who love grotto's pizza, it's mediocre.

Capofitto - on Chestnut St in Old City - has Neapolitan pie as good as any in the region. Not getting the acclaim it merits. The first and only time I have accepted and enjoyed a wet center.

Not cheap, but worth it. Great flavor and texture and balance.

My dad was pals with the founder/owner (since before Grotto).

Anyone been to Snap Custom Pizza in Ardmore?

It's the Peace A Pizza dude. PAP is barely-better-than-average pie. He's opening one on Black Friday in Exton in the former PAP location there.

This looks to be one more move to turn Neapolitans into chain pizza. The beginning of the end.

Pizzapocalypse.

Lady behind the counter gave me the two largest slices of the pizza today. Good day.

The chain MOD seems like the Chipotle of pizza - "build yer own" fast & cheap.

This one is in the Gateway Shopping Center just off 202 in Wayne.

Pizza was very good - but not awesome. Not as good as Wolfgang Puck chain or Rapidough's in WC.

Every pie is $7.87 no matter what you put on it.

NY Pizza Supremo is at 31st and 8th Ave, adjacent to Penn Station in NYC.

This was a fabulous upside down square slice with a killer sauce. Better than the legendary L&B Spumoni Gardens

The round pie is a B+

I think that's lasagna.
