It’s a gross night. The storm rolled in and its been soaking since sun down. I stopped by my mom’s to see what was wrong with Windows Vista on her laptop…everything, apparently. Frustrated, I left and headed down Broadway, back towards the DTES. Home. Dry. Warmth. But first. Pizza.
Fuck yes.
Broadway and Commercial. This IS east van. Pizza by the slice at its very best. One of my favorite “fast food” joints when I lived off the Drive but now a treat when I’m nearby.
It’s real simple. 2 slices and a pop for $4. I think. Forgot to check my change when I grabbed double that. They’ve got a nice thin crust sprinkled with sesame seeds and some nice toppings. The usual plus a pesto pizza, a mushroom and peppers pizza and the famous roast potato pizza. Very veggie friendly. Also at your disposal, hot sauce, red pepper flakes and blue cheese outta squirt bottle. That ain’t my steez tho. Blue cheese is like liquid toe jam.
Open 10:30am to 2pm during the week. Til 3am on the Friday and Saturday. 1pm on Sunday. Also opening up on Denman St. due to popular demand. Rumour has it near UBC too.
I once saw a dude drop both slices on his way out, topping side down, onto the sidewalk. He proceeded to pick it up and eat it. Yep, it’s pretty good pizza. Also, I hate how people call it ‘zza. Fucking lazy fucks.
damn, this really made me want pizza.
The image of the dude droppin his slices top down made me laugh. I think I’ve seen that shit too. There was a big line up and all the peeps in it were like oooh damn that sucks dude. There is one on Denman in the west end too now.
Haha I remember back when Fatih himself used to deliver to us @ King and Knight… He would flip off the vietnamese gangsters in their blinged out benzos blocking the alley… Dude would get outta his car and bang on their windows like “Move the fucking car!!” Fatih is straight gangster. That was like ’05. Shit is still just as good if not better!
