5 /5 Matt Ide: Flip the script with cup n char
Disclaimer: I HATE PEPPERONI ON PIZZA.... Or at least, I did....I was worried writing that alone might get me booted, but I have to update that stance after having Luca Pizza in West Pittston.
Im hooked on cup and char pepperoni (havent tried cup and char sausage yet) and the flavor sans grease. Ive seen it used at a couple places around here, and I know Tony Cerimele is a fan based on his recent pop-up in the Electric City. Im not even sure what I ordered or what I was looking at on that individual slice, because it seemed unique for the day; cup and char pepperoni, basil and not sure if its their creamy mozzarella or ricotta but it had goat cheese-like creaminess vibes, and I mean that in the best way!
We also got the 16" New York style round cheese pizza with sweet sauce and garlic knots; I cant say its better than Angelos or Gerrys, particularly because I was late picking up and three hungry kids made for a fun ride to the pool from there, but it was a crowd pleaser. Pretty standard plain with sweet sauce, would definitely order for regular party fair and pleasing a variety of guests. Garlic knots were fresh, plump and full of flavor but not obnoxiously soaked; best ones Ive had in awhile.
I ate it under this tree, it was nice. I really wanna get back for the garlic knot sliders, Brooklyn pan, Angels N Demons specialty and their trifecta of sauces offered on a few pies, but overall a great stop.
