Had a coupon for a free personal-sized pizza; the proprietor gives these out as business cards, cheap publicity. Only other guy I ever saw that did that was Ron Zapp, the late owner of Zapp’s & Dirty’s Potato Chip brands out of Louisiana. His business card was a coupon for a free bag of chips. I had lots of Ron’s business cards!

So I am walking past Eat Pizza today, and naturally I don’t have the coupon with me. Sure, I had it last Thursday for some reason, but not today. (sigh).

Man, I hate it when there is something new and I’ve missed it. Especially if it is “8 months new!” Apparently, when I wasn’t looking, a new pizzeria opened inside one of my neighborhood grocery stores, the Thriftway in SW Portland.

Called “A Slice of New York,” that’s exactly what they offer, whole pies, slices, NY style subs, calzones and the like.

I had wandered in to Thriftway to get some bagels for Sunday morning, not one of my usual stops, but Noah’s had exactly 3,255,123 people in line. (Ok, Noah’s is not one of my usual stops, either).

Excuse the picture for being on its side but it was the best way to show how thick this crust was. Went to Brewzzi’s the other day to meet some friends for lunch. Matt’s Pizza decided to come as well as Martin. Initially I was going to do the pasta dish there but after some peer pressure from Matt, I ultimately decided to get the pizza, since he remembered that one of the higher ups in the organization invited me in to taste it many months ago.

The Brewzzi decision makers even inquired about having a #pizzatweetup at the Boca Raton Brewzzi’s location, but never followed through when I explained to them that we require all pizza to be supplied for free to the attendees.
