Rave: Imos

[docellis]

I tried to re-create the sauce they use at Black Thorn once and it didn't go over well. I'd pay for that recipe.

These days there are so many good options for pizza in St Louis.

Are there really? Pi and Black Thorn are good, but other than that I can't think of any that stand out. I've never been to Dewey's. My stalker works there so I could have her bring it over one of these times I give in while I'm hammered and reply to a text message.

Adamo's (Bridgeton, Mckelvey Rd) is amazing. Amazing. Amazing.

California Pizza Kitchen- it's ok I guess but overpriced.

I think I'd rather have Imo's.

I went there for the first time ever a few months ago and had a triple mushroom and veggie pizza and it was great, it really was. I was as surprised as you.

I want to like The Good Pie. Wood fired oven, nice beer selection. But my pizza was awful. Awful I say. And the draft beers run $8 and $9 a pint.

So needless to say, I don't like it. I would reverse luke's opinion of it vs. Katie's, which is pretty good.

I do miss Il Vicino.

Oh, and Three Monkeys has really good pizza.

I agree. Their calzones are good, but just because they have a fancy oven imported from Italy doesn't mean they know what they're doing with it. I ordered a pizza and the edges were burnt crisp and the center of the pizza was so doughy it looked like it wasn't even cooked.

This is where I get pizza from when visiting home.

Farotto's Italian Restaurant & Pizzeria

Guido's is my absolute favorite St. Louis pizza, although it's on the pricey side too. I don't hate Imo's, but I'd take Guido's any day over Imo's. It's also my favorite delivery place. You can get tapas, gorgeous pastas, salads, etc. I wish more places would deliver other than pizza places and Chinese (with the exception of Jimmy John's).

Also, I've never really understood provel. To me it sticks to the roof of your mouth and why isn't it available anywhere else in the country?

Yes. Stupid fires. I hope they come back soon.

Because it's a horse [expletive] product and nobody else in the rest of the country would buy it.
