Tower of Pizza

By Anonymous
I should have blogged this a long time ago.  No that is not a tower of empty pizza boxes ready to be filled with hot pies for deliveries. That is a tower of empty pizza boxes, smeared with sauce and cheese remains of pies devoured by my friend Will. Will used to have a real problem with $5 Hot and Ready pizza. What started out as garbage by the back door grew into a hilarious inside joke between Will and his stomach. What is really wild is that this is only half of the stack-- about 50 boxes.

Luckily I think Will has sort of chilled with the cardboard crusty stuff, and got rid of the tower. However, those cheap pizzas provided much needed fuel for making his new album. Which you can listen to here:

Tales of Pizza: Part Four: Barquitos

By Anonymous
When I was a young student of Richmond Public Schools, we were often served a very weird pizza-like dish called "barquitos" for lunch in the cafeterium (cafeteria+auditorium+gymnasium).  I have NEVER been able to find out anything about barquito pizza on the internet. I did however, find out that barquito means little boat in Spanish. A barquito is basically a french bread pizza topped with seasoned taco meat (probably left over lunch the day before) and cheddar cheese.  I feel like maybe there was a similar dish with sloppy joe meat but who can really be sure. I have done my best to block out school lunch from my memories. What is this dish? I only ever had it in elementary school. Is it the concoction of a lunch lady? Is it a real food item? What is a barquito?

Blow Toad - Richmond, VA

By
Last Friday, some friends and I went to a preview of Blow Toad, Richmond's first and only coal fired pizza place. This is the new restaurant of two-time nominee for the James Beard Award and lauded local restaurateur Jimmy Sneed.   Sneed has had his hands in several well-known and award-winning restaurants including Richmond's The Frog and the Redneck (now closed) and Chicago's SugarToad .  He also is co-owner of the acclaimed veg-friendly restaurant and pizzeria Fresca on Addison with his daughter. The chef de cuisine is Nikoli Creatore, a veteran of Balliceaux which has always had an exceptionally creative and delicious menu. Naturally with all these accolades I was expecting some awesome pizza but what we got fell far short of my expectations.  At this very generous, FREE preview the team at BlowToad were dishing up pizza, samples of entrees and appetizers and dessert. The waitress came to take our order for two pies and three ap/entree samples and drinks...
