"This slice shop on Girard makes super crispy pies with leopard-like char marks—don't call them burned; it's just part of the thin-crusted-but-not-exactly-New-York style. They only have four options: plain, pepperoni, tomato, and a rotating weekly special. And you'll have to walk right up to their window to order any of them (though you can call if you a whole tomato pie or email if you're getting at least four pies). Despite how huge these slices are, they hold their weight in toppings—meaning your pepperoni cups won’t lose all of their perfect little grease pools as soon as you pick up a slice.
