I Love Anchovies...

pepperoni and mushrooms on my pizza. Of course, I took a liking to deep dish Chicago style when I moved there, but nothing can truly compare to a big slice of Ray's, Grimaldi's, Lombardi's, Totonno's or pizza from any of the 3,000+ NY pizzerias.

Even though I am relatively new to D.C. I still can't believe I have yet to taste one decent pizza pie here. Can anyone PLEASE make a recommendation besides Domino's, Papa John, or Pizza Hut?

I recommend Ethiopian Food. Forget pizza, it just isn't happening.

This will sound frou-frou, but I'm a girl and it happens. My favorite pizza is the Tri-coloure from California Pizza Kitchen. It's really good greens with shaved parmesan and a light balsamic viniagrette over a crispy thin crust.

As to Alito's choice of Ethiopian, he is not one of us. Never rely on a conservative's choice of food. Since they don't understand a woman's right to choose, they have no concept of choice.

Sorry about the earlier typo, whereupon the deletion happened.

Make your own pizza! The best way is to use unbleached or health food whole wheat flour, and a little gluten flour with yeast. One helpful idea is to put the gluten flour in a blender with yeast and water then kneed the mixture with the other flour. Provide your own cheese, sauce, and toppings. Modify the recipe for gluten flour and other things above if you like. Test your results.
