And the ones I've been to, at least, maintain something of an independent character (there's no standardization in the layout of the parlors, some end up being sports clubs, others just end up being normal restaurants). It's different from NYC pizza, I guess (meaning the grease does not saturate the paper plate that the pizza sits on), but I personally prefer it.
Grease is a critical component of the pizza. Frankly, grease is a critical component of the entire diet, but I digress.
Speaking of which, I heard of a new delicacy. Philadelphia locals could try this, if they're looking to die of heart failure but don't want to wait until they're 40. Buy one giant pizza from Pomodoro's on South Street with extra cheese and whatever toppings you want. Take it across the street to Jim's Steaks, where you order a cheesesteak with Wiz. Wrap the cheesesteak in the pizza. Serve with Diet Coke. Eat and enjoy.
