      yessss thank you! lol.. everyone from outside of Philly always have an assumption that "ohh, your from Philly, you must love cheesesteaks".. we don't just sit around and eat cheesesteaks all day. Lol. Great show you have. I enjoyed watching this episode in particular.

      Alan but it bothers me when he goes to cities like philly and Chicago and even Naples and hits these major chains. Many of these places are hardly hidden gems. Best restaurants, including pizza shops, don’t belong to major food companies.

    My brother's douchbag cat is really loud when no one is home, but one day, we found out that Frank's voice soothed him. Now before we leave for work in the morning, we set his furry ass up with the Pizza Show playlist so he doesn't bother the neighbors with his bitching. Thank you, Frank. Thank you for bringing peace to my home, pizza really does sooth the restless beast.

    • @phillystyle445
      @phillystyle445 6 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      +SyxxPunk yeah, it's not really "a thing". I started seeing this Philly Taco thing being mentioned in the media a couple of years ago. Every time it comes up a bunch of us go "Wait. I've never seen this. Where'd this BS come from?" It's good to finally know the answer. This columnist made it up. Who knows, it may catch on but until such time everybody in Philadelphia except for *that guy* thinks it's a bonehead move; some would say "unnecessary".

      It was really weird seeing Frank have to fold his arms, lean against a countertop, and actively stop himself from helping ... he's usually so helpful and engaged with his hosts but this guy was like "My pizza is sacred, keep your filthy peasant hands off of it."
      It reminds me of that guy in either the Rome episode or the Naples episode ... who said "You're a baker, you're a pizzaiolo, not a heart surgeon." Meaning pizza isn't a religion and shouldn't be so damn serious.

      Galactic123 amen, but you can't tell from how he talks he is burnt out, but that is common when you find success suddenly and have to carry the load still. But so many so called new aged restauranteurs come and go quick cause they aren't dedicated they just want to be seen as the hot thing on the review sites and then they are gone, but it's cool when you see a young guy hanging and making a legacy

      It's more about taste, bro. I've had Di Fara's. The best pizza I've ever had, but it's not the prettiest NY slice out there. And besides, if he really does it for 50 more years, he'll be constantly perfecting his craft as he goes along. Like Jiro dreams of Sushi, just with pizza.

    I'm floored by how many personal connections I have to this video! Joe Beddia and I went to the same high school. I had college classes with a member of the Katz family, and I grew up a few miles from Roots Market in Lancaster. Pizza, Philly, and Lancaster....three of my favorite things in the world...all in one video! Thanks for this, Frank!
    Oh, also, I've done the Philly Taco twice. It's great.
