Chris Bianco Talks Pizza And Drops The F-Bomb An Awful Lot

Heaven Nights: All You Can Eat Every Thursday At Varasano’s Pizzeria

Every Thursday, from 8-11pm, you can show up at Varasano’s, pay a flat fee, and eat until you are stuffed.  The price is thought provokingly low.  For $12.95, us big’ns can eat as much pie as our tummies will hold.  Meanwhile, kids under the age of 12 eat for just $7.95.  These “Heaven Nights,” sound …

Thank You Rain – Varasano’s Opens [Quick Hits]

Tonight, Varasano’s Pizzeria, one of the most anticipated Atlanta restaurants, finally opened its doors.  Despite a tremendous amount of recent attention directed at the Peachtree Hills pizzeria, the crowd was very manageable.  Similar to what happened with FLIP, a little bit of rain clearly kept some people away.  Thank goodness! I expect it to get …

How many people does it take to ruin a good thing?  Answer: …

Varasano’s Pizzeria: Imminent

It’s been nearly a month since I got to sneak over to the highly anticipated Varasano’s Pizzeria.  Jeff was just getting the feel for his new oven and the place was still under construction.  18-pizzas later (I kid you not) … I was plump and happy.  Unlike his home tasting which I attended, Jeff used …

Varasano’s Pizzeria Update

So Varasano’s Pizzeria is starting to get some legs underneath it.  I drove by a couple of days ago and it appears the interior is basically done.  In addition, word is that they passed all five inspections the first time through.  Staff training starts next week, so it’s getting close! JOY!!!!  Will I be there …

Laugh Of The Day: World’s Best Pizza Slicer

So yesterday brought word of the NerdApproved Pizza Pro 3000 Circular Saw.  First I was afraid, I was petrified; then I was told I’d rather have a kick ass laser by my side! (Yeah Gloria!)  Thanks Jeff for the email! Enjoy!  I’ve taken the liberty of starting the video right at the goods… there is …

Out of Town: Figs Pizza Restaurant Review – Charlestown, Boston, MA

Overall:[rating:0] (epic fail) Oh what a pity … Figs has really fallen flat.  You can sense their hidden, reclusive quality that is masked by a lot (and I do mean a lot) of serious flaws.  What was once a fantastic pizza joint is now a shameful iteration of its former self.  The inner child is …
