LOUIE & ERNIE'S PIZZA

      Yesterday my family and I went Louie and Ernie's Pizza.  It is at 1300 Crosby Avenue, Bronx NY 10461.  Fun fact: It is right down the block from where my grandpa once lived.  When you first walk in you get that cheesy pizza smell.  It is actually partly below the street.  The windows are level with the street.  The place is one long and skinny room (excluding the kitchen).  On the walls there are pizza related drawings and newspaper articles about the place.  On this low hanging part of the ceiling there was a pizza clock with pepperoni with the numbers on them.  In the back there is outdoor seatings.  We didn't sit there of course, it was rain/snowing.

     We got some amazing foods.  For starters my mom ordered a white pizza (a pizza with no sauce, just mozzarella and ricotta cheese) for the family to share- but more on white pizzas later. We all ordered calzones (beside my dad, he had bit of all of them).  I got a meatball calzone.  It was big.  The meatball wasn't whole, but it was in bits.  It was delicious, it came not too hot and not one bit cold.  My mom got a broccoli rabe calzone.  It had little cheese, but was full of garlicky broccoli rabe, which she loved.  My sister got a regular cheese calzone.  It had a TON of cheese, like gooing everywhere a ton.  Of course I had to eat more.  So I ordered a white pizza for myself.  It was oily (but not in a bad way at all) and heavenly. The cheese was really thick, but that's a good thing.


     So I loved this place.  Delicious food and a cool inside.  Definitely a place to return to.
