Lombardi's pizza is the real deal. I actually did deliveries for them back in the day. They used to send me to get fresh muzz (always pay cash)and deliver pizza's to these cool social clubs where old italian guys with names like "Pickles" would play cards. Jerry Lombardi claims his granddad was the first to bring pizza to the US. All i know is the first day I worked there i remember seeing this photo on the wall of a guy named Johnny Hollywood. I asked well is he one of the managers? when am i going to meet him? Their response, well he's getting out soon. That's about as far as this story will go, laf.

Regarding that junkie observation, one word. Ew.

*channel* not chennel.

i just got back... went down there at around 11:30, waited for about half an hour/45 minutes, had a delicious pizza (and they're also giving out free snapple!), was interviewed by an italian news chennel. the pizza tastes waaaay better at 5 cents, too.





here's the deal though... it's one pizza per table, 5 cents for a plain pie. toppings, etc. are at regular price. best bet is to go in a group of three because they were letting groups of 3 and 4 jump ahead.

and be warned--this has attracted all kinds of people... i was standing behind a bunch of junkies applying gobs of makeup and spraying perfume between their legs and plotting to steal other people's cigarettes. thoroughly entertaining, though it didn't do much for my appetite.

Let me rephrase that...the line is "yooj."

I leave next door to this place. Sitting in my boxers, hungry, broke, wanting pizza, I called. It's dine-in only, unfortunately, and according to buddy who answers the phone "the line is yoog." I can see it from my window.

do you think they'll deliver? what if i offer to give a TWO HUNDRED PERCENT tip???
