To be honest it looks gross and I have tried it and I would say it also is gross - but to each their own.The problem is, of course, that this is one fairly well-known pizza restaurant in Pittsburgh (south hills) and not really a "pittsburgh-style" pizza or served that way in other places around the city and its suburbs. However, despite not being a lifelong yinzer, I have been visiting here and now living here long enough that it really bothers me that people claim that this idiosyncratic joint represents my adopted hometown's taste in pizza as a whole and then a kajillion people pile on in the comments - without ever having tried it or any other pizza in the Burgh.All that said, I am from Brooklyn, NY. The birthplace of pizza and that is still my preference (I don't even like pizza from Manhattan).</blockquote>
