Just before the rotary where the Paparazzi was. That whole site is being redeveloped with several buildings slated for demolition. I'm looking forward to the pizza place but sadden by the loss of the small Chinese restaurant that was next door which is apparently turning into a yet another Dunkin Donuts. (Concord will soon have 5 of them.)

As opposed to B pizza?

Or is apizza to pizza what amoral is to moral?

Many pizza places in the New Haven area have similar names (the area was home to many immigrants specifically from Naples). In Neapolitan oral dialect, La Pizza (singular form) is pronounced "apizza." The L is dropped.

Portuguese does that, too.

It's pronounced ah-BEETZ for the record.

Rural Alberta. He had to drag me there for my opinion.

It is a sit down family place with pitchers of Molson and sports on TV. Local youth hockey sponsorship paraphernalia throughout.

Basic thin crust fare, well executed, just mass-produced. Considering this was in a dot on the map 5,000 person crossroads town in the foothills of the Canadian Rockies, it really wasn't bad. I'd rank it well above Papa Gino's any day for quality of the materials.

It ain't Pini's or ForPizza or Regina or a thousand other local spots that know their pie in the actual Boston area, but the style was true to its name.

...for that new section of South Bay. I saw today that one of the retail shops is closing (though it probably was before and I just didn't notice). We lost Wahlbergers recently. (I assume that might be where Apizza is going?) There's still an empty storefront where the pet supply place was.

Also, my one visit to the new conveyor sushi place wasn't great (food was ok but a little bland), and despite the advertising all over, I wonder if Crumbl will survive - they do great cookies, but they're expensive.

But I guess that's the post-pandemic world. Lots of empty storefronts near where I work downtown (in the Opera House area) and Winter Street is practically a ghost town. Depressing.
