So far, so so so so good.

We have a new NUMBER THREE.

Tomatoes Apizza has trumped Holly's Red Devil for the number three spot in Pizza Club's most cherished pies.
We went to Tomatoes Apizza on Halsted last week, and it was absolutely fabulous! Minions Dan Lee and Brittany Read were in attendance, as all five of us squeezed into Elle's tiny-ass car. It's okay, we all love each other.
We ordered their bread, and three pies: White, Green, and Classic + pepperoni.
They were so good that I may still be drooling over them. The thin crust, the insane amount of garlic, and those pepperonis... we all know how I feel about thick pepperonis that curl on a pizza. Dude. Heaven.
As much as I loved the classic + pepperonis, the green pizza, which is loaded with spinach BLEW MY EFFING MIND.

The only downside was that the crust, to me, was a little too crispy (somewhat burnt), which makes me sad. Chris and Elle loved it, though.
Totally awesome and unique pizza. Closest you can get it to authentic pizza without being in Italy, apparently. Or grandma Delicata's kitchen. Which I have also had recently... not to brag or anything...

We decided to give Tomatoes Apizza a 4.77! Which means we now have a new third place!
1. Antonious of Rochester - 4.9
2. Loui's of Hazel Park - 4.8
3. Tomatoes Apizza 4.77

Also, our server was a doll, props to ya, lady!

2011? SHUT THE FRONT DOOR

Yellow errbody,

2010 was a great year for the Pizza Club. We had more homemade meetings than ever before, we celebrated the wedding of the Vice President and the Secretary/Historian/Treasurer with the biggest Pizza Club meeting EVER (more deets later), we found a rock n' roll pizzeria close to home, and the best thing (according to me): We got a Kitchen Aid Mixer, so all of that pizza dough kneading by hand, it's now a thing of the past. JKJKJK, it wasn't the best, the biggest meeting was.

On October 14, 2010, Christopher and I had our wedding rehearsal dinner at Antonious in Rochester, our favorite place. They offered us a buffet-style dinner with bread and PIZZA and lovely things. We had our parents, the most excellent minions, which now includes Beth and Rick because they paid for the best meeting evaaaar, Kaitlyn, Matt, Tommy, Anthony, Aaron, the Lamings, and the Groesbecks (all the way from the big CO). We even oh-so-stealthily put up a Pizza Club button on their curtains without anyone noticing... we still have yet to check if it's still there, we forgot to check last time we went! We gave them a 'thank you' card with our picture... We're such nerds that we hope they'll frame it and put it up on their wall.
A great time was had by all! And the wedding, OH, the wedding. Such good times. We all looked so foxy and fresh.

We found a place called PIZZALLICA. Yes, you read that correctly. The place is awesome. Prices are a little high, but it's all specialty pizzas (Check out the White Stripe, you won't be sorry), and their shit is delicious.

A trip to Tomatoes Apizza is in order, and we will share our rating with you later, alligators.

LOVE! :)
