check it out. Avalanche Pizza

Not only is this award winning pizza here but in Italy too. It's right in Athens. I go past it all the time. I've wanted to stop and take away a pie but a couple friends said it wasn't good (It's in an old gas station I think). Someone else told me it was good. Guess THEY were right. These pizzas sound delicious. (yes they're pricy but it's Athens. Everything is hence me not moving there no matter how much I wanna)

For that matter we have Remo's in Gallipolis which has been a family hot dog place since 1957. I'm not a huge hot dog fan but I wanna try the special sauce. I AM a sucker for family restaurants.

I had a strange dream last night. I was with a couple people (I got the feeling they were coworkers but I didn't see anyone's face clearly). We had a white tarp laid out over the School of Science Secretary's desk. I was going to do an autopsy on it but the cadaver had thick oozing tar all over his feet and they kept telling me not to get it on the desk or D (the secretary) was going to kill me.

Dad called me up after Big Bang Theory (my aunt got him watching it) 'You're just like Sheldon aren't you?' Go away dad.

The pizzas sound reasonably healthy. We don't have that here. We have Pizza Hut and Papa John's. Blechhh.

I celebrated the Chinese New Year with sushi and plum wine at Kotobuki. I couldn't let this one pass--it's the Year of the Rabbit, which is _my_ year. I'm hoping something good happens this year. It is off to an auspicious start--on my way to the restaurant, I hit all the lights green and lucked out on a three-fer of Police songs on the oldies radio station. Yay.

Ooooh, tasty-looking pizza. And those prices are actually really cheap for London standards! You might not be totally surprised to hear that.

I'm going to try and convince Helen to check out the Chinese New Year celebrations in Chinatown on Sunday. I've lived in London since 2000 and never been!

oooo you should go

London makes pretty much everywhere in the world but Tokyo look cheap! I like London? Most of the time I've lived here I've been pretty poor, so I guess I'm a glutton for punishment?

The other thing I like about that pizza place is they tell you things like how much their sandwiches weigh and that they put a quarter pound of mozzarella in every calzone. Makes me wish I hadn't recently learnt the calorie count of these things? It's like when Jamba Juice (smoothie chain in LA) started putting calorie counts on their menus during my second research trip. How the hell does this have 750 calories in it when it's made of bananas and strawberries? Oh yeah, the bucket of sugar and the fact that it comes in a cup the size of my head. Whoops.

you must be but then again London has so many amazing things to see and such fascinating history

ha yeah menu transparency is scary. Mozzarella is horrible in its fat content. Jumba Juice always rates up there high in the eat this not that articles. they're pretty awful

This was very true of Antojitos Criollos too. I mean a very little hold in the wall in a tiny strip mall across the street from a very minor shopping center. A tobacconist next door, and a laundrette, and a sleazy used car dealership just up the street from the strip mall. We were very pleasantly surprised.

Those pizzas look AMAZING!!!

I guess the GOOD point in saying how much goes on each pie, it's for the WHOLE pie. ;) Though 8 oz of cheese? WOW.

The prices for a pizza like that? Not too bad.
