Message: [QUOTE="8893, post: 3566989, member: 93"] Did Sally's curbside pickup for family dinner last night. I got there around five minutes early for my pickup time and the pies were around fifteen minutes late coming out, but otherwise easy and uneventful. I would still avoid it like the plague on a Friday because I think the chance of a clusterfark increases exponentially, but I'd definitely go back any other time. The pies were tremendous, except the flavor of the fresh tomato and basil pie was good not great. I think Modern does a better job with that pie. Could also be the tomatoes at this time of year; but I also expected more garlic. Red pie with mozz and bacon was the winner as I expected; red pie with mozz and meatballs (first time I've had that topping there) also very good. For me, the crust was the best. If pressed, I'd have to give it an edge above all the others on that alone. There is something about the oily char they get on the ends of their crusts that just puts them over the top for my tastes. If I could get the eggplant and artichoke heart toppings from Modern and get them cooked on a Sally's pie, that would probably be the perfect New Haven pie for me. Mrs. 8893 and the girls thought it was a little too much char and they generally prefer a little softer crust, but they still liked it plenty. Looking forward to leftovers for dinner tonight. [/QUOTE]
