Tacconellis - An Insider's Guide to Ordering

Ah, Tacconellis. Forget showing up here and ordering a slice at 3 am or stumbling through your cheesesteak order by saying with instead of wit or god forbid anything but Souf Philly English. It also has been named one of the best pizza places in the US. Phoodie.info takes us on a step by step process of ordering your dough and sitting through the terrible service for the holy grail of pizza.

2. Always over-order. My Aunt Diane is crazy: She reserves about one pie per person when making a reservation. But there is a method to her madness: You always come home with leftovers, and unlike some other pizzas, Tacconelli’s is the gift that keeps on giving... Besides, Tacconelli’s is like drugs: There’s nothing worse than running out before you feel like you’ve had enough.

So Philly

A roundup of local Philly stories.

• Nutter vows to enforce city laws on gun ownership defying state law. Charlton Heston vows to part the Delaware to show how awesome guns really are.

• Art Museum selected to represented US at Venice Biennale. Artist only happy that he is getting a free trip to Venice, thats the one that is sinking right?

• Vineland Music Festival put on hold after announcement of Coachella of the East. Stocks of Birkenstock and patchouli plummet.

• Hershey decides to pull their "pacs" after outcry that it looked too much like drugs. In related news, I'm still not sure which markers to sniff, so I sniff all of them.

• "Philly fans have that way about them". I always say its not a real house party until there is the E-A-G-L-E-S chant.

• A. Serril Headley, former owner of the Khyber passed away. Plans on haunting the bar and going upstairs cause the cover is always free.
  

So Philly

>>>A historical plaque was installed in the Italian Market section of Philly commemorating the "South 9th Street Curb Market", whatever that is. Apparently last night "the plaque portion at the top was unbolted, apparently thrown to the ground - and may have been run over by a car". I have to say this is pretty awesome. Stop renaming streets and sections of the city. We DO NOT WANT. Its the Italian Market regardless of anything else. Its Delaware Ave not Chris Columbus.

>>>Wow! Years and years after Philly was supposed to have a Public Access channel, there finally is one. Not that everyone doesn't already have a million options instead of traditional TV. The current estimates are that it will be live in January 2008 and are currently looking for content. Submit your videos to http://www.phillyaccess.org/
