Worth a second look: ABC News Nightline's Slice of Heaven: Pizza Wars; Best pizza in Broward County


ABC News Nightline: It's On!: Pizza Wars, December 8, 2010

ABC News Correspondent John Berman on a "Slice of Heaven,"
December 8, 2010:
The fight for slice supremacy as the humble pie becomes a recession powerhouse.

When I lived in Evanston and Wilmette in the mid-1980's, I used to go with friends to an Unos after every third Cubs game we went to at Wrigley Field.

The best pizza in Evanston back then was Carmen's, on Church Street, which wasn't cheap, but was delicious. http://www.carmenspizza.net/

In the Washington, D.C. area, where I lived for 15 years, I was partial to Armand's Pizza, usually the one on Mass. Avenue on Capitol Hill, that was located next to The Heritage Foundation and near the U.S. Senate buildings and Union Station, or the one in Tenleytown on Wisconsin Avenue near American University.

Not surprisingly, my friends and I were partial to their all-you-can-eat deals with salad.

From this you can deduce that my favorite kind of pizza is Chicago Deep Dish style.


There are currently no
Unos in South Florida, which is a shame. Only wish there was one here in Hallandale Beach at the Village at Gulfstream Park or in nearby Hollywood.
