Pizza Week in the Snow

2/8, 2/9, 2/10, 2/11

Where Radius Pizza (Mt. Pleasant) x 2, Pete's Pizza (Columbia Heights), Astor

Who: Obama, Dozer, K Walnut, Elliot, Will, Aaron, others

So as you probably aware there was a lot of snow in the DC area last week. Apparently this means I eat a lot of pizza. The good news is that I am within walking distance of several delicious pizza places.

There were two trips to Radius Pizza on Mt. Pleasant St. They have a great happy hour special of a beer and a slice for $5. I had many of these. I can't really think of much that is better than a slice of pizza and a frosty beer. There were trips here on both Monday and Thursday. Not bad.

Pete's Pizza is another quality spot in Columbia Heights. The visit here was born out of the need to not walk very far. Having been here not too long ago I had discovered the pepper and onion pizza is a delicious option. I had two slices of this. It was fantastic.

Astor is a local place offering a wide variety of foods. This includes some pizza options. This was more of an emergency stop off for Obama, Elliot and I. We needed some food so we split a pizza. I also got a salad and they got some humus. Other folks are very high on this pizza, I think there other options at astor (like sandwiches) that are much better.

So an excellent week of not accomplishing very much was improved by some excellent pizza pie.

Radius Pizza

Where: Radius Pizza Mt. Pleasant St.

When: 1/10/09

Who: garretthubb, obama

Radius has a great deal during Happy Hour, a slice and a pint for $5. We set out there for some pizza after watching the Ravens Vs. Patriots game. To our astonishment this deal is extended all day on Saturday and Sunday as well. What a great way to watch the Packers vs. Cardinals!

I got 3 slices of cheese and 3 pints of some amber beer (note: the beers on tap are unusual, I don't recall what they have). The slices were pipping hot and delicious and the beer was cold and delicious. The football game was highly entertaining considering that I usually just watch the Redskins and they never score.

I would highly recommend this for a Happy Hour or a Saturday/Sunday afternoon of pizza and beer, two of God's top five greatest creations.
