Pi Pizza in the Loop 1-18-2020

Anna, since she is home from Taiwan, got to choose our dinner spot and she chose Pi Pizza in the Loop.  I think she chose it for two reasons: she likes the pizza and because Baked Bear is next door.

I thought maybe it would be very crowded because it was a Saturday night and because the Loop was having their Ice Carnival. I was wrong. The ice carnival was super small.  We didn't see anything except small ice sculptures in front of a few of the businesses.  It is nothing like the Fete de Glace in St. Charles that closes down streets for the large, competitive ice sculptures.  Go, if you get a chance, it is Jan. 25th on Main Street... https://www.discoverstcharles.com/event/fete-de-glace-ice-carving-competition/1152/

We were seated right away (as soon as they pulled some small tables together).  We were close to the door and every time the door opened we were blasted with cold air.  We ordered some Fitz's root beer.  They were out of about 5 or 6 of the beers on their draft beer list (so that was a bummer).  We ordered a variety of pizzas: the Delmar (BBQ chicken pizza made with Pappy's BBQ sauce), the Hill (pepperoni, salami, banana peppers, kalamata olives, onions), the Lincoln Park (zucchini, feta, garlic) we added kalamata olives and artichokes, and a regular pepperoni and prosciutto.  We had all of them made with their thin crust. The pizzas were good, but I will have to say that a couple of them were a little burnt on the bottom.

Jon, Mollie and I also all ordered Bada Bing salads (greens, feta, slivered almonds, dried bing cherries). 

The food here is always good and we enjoy it.  I still miss the location in Kirkwood.
