Well, Christmas 2007 is now behind us and New Year's Day 2008 is just ahead. Mr. Fettucini and Ms. Goulash can hardly think of eating another bite out but neither one of us is going to cook at home so we went out for what else, pizza!! It was off to Screamin' Mimi's located in a little shopping strip on the corner of Ogelthorpe and Price. The owners of Screamin' Mimi's, Big Lou and Mimi, are originally from New Jersey. Big Lou and Mr. Fettucini hit it off from day one. So, Mr. Fettucini, give us the details:
Mr. Fettucini: The pizza at Screamin' Mimi's is even better than Mack's pizza on the boardwalk down the Jersey shore. We order the slices because they're jumbo sized and this italian has to admit that he can't handle more than two Screamin' Mimi's slices. The pizza is thin and the crust is perfecto. Big Lou, my man!!! The best thing about this place is that everybody screams. They scream the orders in, they scream your name for pick-up. I almost feel like I'm in the old neighborhood. Only thing missing are a couple of wise guys standing on the corner wearing their high waisted pants ( I never got into that fashion trend). When Joey T. and Mrs. T. figured out that they wouldn't be able to finish their pie, they screamed for a take home box. It was beautiful and music to my ears. Gotta love it. Now, if they would only throw in a few curse words here and there.....
Ms. Goulash: Dahlings, I was taking in the scenery and spotted a man wearing a T-shirt that had the following imprinted on the front "I'm only wearing this black shirt until they come out with something darker" (GG, I think I found a man after your own heart!!). As for Mr. Fettucini, you can take the man out of the neighborhood but you can't take the neighborhood out of the man, dahlings.
