~The Best in the Falls! :) ~

Often our pizzas will get posted on various social media groups or on a review and we inevitably encounter the people unfamiliar with our “Sicilian”…. They ask “why is there only 1 mushroom and green pepper”…. Since our “Sicilian” has toppings INSIDE, this is how we mark the pizzas to know which pizza is which when there are many in the oven at the same time!!
