Pete's Apizza Clarendon

Where: Pete's Apizza Clarendon edition

Who: Garretthubb, Muggsy

Is there anything better than unknowingly walking into an awesome pizza discount.  Muggsy and I wanted a good meal on a cold, gross day before going to the movies.  We decided to check out a Pete's location we hadn't been to.  The great news was that Pete's was running a "Monday Madness" promotion every Monday in March.  Our pizza was 1/2 price!  The bad news of such a great deal is that Pete's was very crowded.  Lots of families partaking in a good deal on some good pizza.

The pizza itself was very good.  Nice thin crust with a little bit of char to it.  The pizza is solid in the center, not soupy.  Obviously Pete's harkens to a CT style, not a Neapolitan one.  I think some of the non-pizza items are what makes Pete's really good.  We each got a salad and they were very good!  It was also nice to see that this Pete's location has a good selection of on tap brews.  The Clarendon branch also seems to have more seating to our familiar Columbia Heights branch.

Of special note, I must give a shout out to the three young ladies sitting next to us.  These three women put us to shame by ordering not one pizza, not two, but three pizzas!  I don't mean three individual sized pizzas, two 14" Pizza and an 18" pie! A tip of the hats ladies!

Vace Pizza Clevland Park

Where: Vace Pizza (Cleveland Park Location)

Who: garretthubb, Muggsy

So it has been a while since anyone posted on here... but here we go.

Woke up yesterday and muggsy and I decided a walk up to Cleveland Park would be a good thing.  Muggsy also wanted to get some Italian Cookies for someone's birthday, so Vace being a great Italian Market would have cookies.

We got a large pizza with roasted red peppers and onion.  Vace has really fantastic crust on their pizza.  The crust is probably the tops in DC!  The toppings however are nothing spectacular.  The ratio of red pepper to onion was decidedly in favor of the onions.

Overall this was a fantastic pizza experience.  We watched House of Cards episodes 5-7, so it was a great DC afternoon, enjoying some political intrigue and tasty pizza!
