I’ve found out that people either LOVE Arinell Pizza or they think that it’s overrated. I’m in the former group. Perhaps it’s because it reminds me of grad school, but I think that it’s just plain tasty! I prefer the classic neapolitan slice over their thick Sicilian slice. The crust is thin, crispy, and has a nice chewy bite. The marinara is quite flavorful and although the cheese can get a bit greasy, I think it just adds to the flavor – lol! The pizzas are parbaked, sliced to order, and reheated with your choice of toppings. Plop down in front of their small window counter and enjoy!

Red velvet cupcake – Susiecakes

Red velvet cupcake Susiecakes Bakery

This is one of Susie’s signature “frosting filled” cupcakes, in one of their most popular flavors. And yes, that indentation on top is intentional, all of the cupcakes had them (personally, not a fan). Something else that I wasn’t impressed with was that they throw these cupcakes into a paper bag for you to take home. Needless to say, my cupcake was smashed on the sides when I got home. Who wants to eat an ugly cupcake, am I right!? I tried patching it, but it still looked sad and defeated. Even Mission Minis boxes their tiny morsels for take-home. The red “sprinkles” on top are actually red velvet cake crumbs. This cupcake was OK. Perhaps a frosting overload with it both on top and inside, and I couldn’t get over the smashed look to it.  $3
