Congress Pizza




Congress Pizza was recommended to us by a local guy who sells rocks for a living. He said they had a unique thin crust pizza that was his favorite pizza. Visiting between lunch and supper time on a Monday night, we found very few people in the restaurant. However, the restaurant instantly gave off vibes of being a local hangouts. Photos of years of local high school sports teams line the walls. A woman who grew up in the area before moving out of Yooperland to New York was at the bar rekindling memories before heading back to her new home in the city.

We ordered a chicken and jalapeno pizza. The pizza had a thin cracker-like crust -- just the way I like it. I don't like pizza crust that overpowers the stuff on top of it.  The pizza was delicious.

If we're in the area again, I'll be back to sample other options. Plus, I'd like to experience this place on a busy Friday or Saturday night.

Schlitz & Giggles

Silly Name. Serious Pizza

Upon reaching Baton Rouge, we headed downtown in search of dinner. A giant flashing neon pizza proclaiming Schlitz & Giggles beckoned, and we answered the call. Inside, we found a somewhat typical college town pizza joint. We ordered a pizza and some Schlitz. The pizza was a simple thin crust pizza. The pizza was tasty and the beer was cold. It was college town pizza joint pizza. If it is late at night and you are hungry and the all the other restaurants are closed and you are in downtown Baton Rouge, check out Schlitz & Giggles. How's that for a glowing recommendation? ;)

It doesn't get much classier than this
