yummmmmmmmmmm.... so, i've lived in the city my whole life, until being recently banished to the sad underbelly that is south buffalo... adjusting to my new surroundings was difficult enough with everything closing by 10p (if not earlier), but not being able to find goodpizzamade my situation even worse.
like, yeah, there is imperial, abbott, jo-jo's, and a number of otherpizzajoints around here, but they all kind of suck. they all seem to use sauce that tastes like straight tomato paste, besides the rest of the ingredients being pretty bland, or the crust being weird/not thoroughly baked. i find these things upsetting.
anyway, i was cravingpizzaagain and decided to google my options, instead of wasting my money onpizzathat i knew would be unsatisfying, and this is how i came to find big fat paulie's (bigfatpauliespizza.com).
like, even the guy that answered the phone was nice, and i felt like he really paid attention because i didn't have to repeat myself a million times like some other places. i ordered a large cheese and pepperoni pizza, it arrived at my door in about 40 minutes, and it was only $12.50. of course, it was a little more after i tipped the driver, but so what? thepizzawas still only $12.50... anyway, i ran back up the stairs with mypizzaand as soon as i opened the box, i knew it was going to be purepizzamagic. i could smell that they use actualpizzasauce, the pepperoni was cupped with the edges lightly charred, the cheese was all shiny and melty, and the crust was a color that says 'i am perfectly baked'... and thank my lucky stars, it tasted as good as it looked.
i will definitely be ordering from big fat paulie's whenever i am overcome with the need for pizza. i really hope everything on their menu is this good.
*update*
as far aspizzagoes, if you get anything other than cheese or cheese & pepperoni, you will probably be disappointed, i def. have been.
