Following my Regular Guy Pizza review this summer, several readers chimed in with other pizza places for me to discover. One of those was Lorenzo's Pizza & Italian near New Castle (322-9085).
Lorenzo's did not disappoint. If you like pizza with gooey cheese and a soft crust, a recipe for a great New York-style pizza, then check out Lorenzo's. They're in Churchman's Center, which sits where Route 58 ends at Route 273 (there's a Commerce Bank there).
Who are the Van Buren Boys? It was an episode of Seinfeld where Kramer runs into trouble at a pizzeria, and yes, was confronted by gang named after the former president. (Kramer: "Oh yea, and they're just as mean as he was!")
Anyway, Kramer inadvertently flashes out the gang's secret sign and all is well. George later runs into his own problems. But anyway, at the Lorenzo's in Delaware, I'm not aware of any secret codes. Just some good pizza.
In other news, the Buffalo Wild Wings near Stanton is open. Great wings and other great munchies if you've never been, and it's a fun place to watch a game. During a Phillies game last week, I am pretty sure everyone in there was wearing red.
The new BWW is on Limestone Road near Kirkwood Highway, and don't be afraid to pull in if the parking lot looks full. They put in a small parking garage underneath the new building.

Buffalo Wild Wings? You gotta be kidding me. They have no idea how to do wings. Their selection of skimpy wings are always undercooked, sauces suck with no
depth of flavor. Yes Wings should have flavor. You would think that since it has a name referencing Buffalo in it, they would know wings? NOT. I know cheap deli locations or pizzeria locations that puts out a better wing. Who cares if they have TVs so does any other restraunt that has pub fare.
AGAIN. YOU don't have a clue. You need your taste buds checked. Step up and have some bells. Don't be afraid to give a bad review. NEWS JOURNAL, I hope you are not paying this "regular guy"
I tried the Buffalo Wild Wings in Bear a few months ago. I love a sloppy mess o' wings as much as the next guy but when we were told there are no "real" plates, no "real" silverware and napkins were at a premium, well, let's just say that doesn't add up to a very fun dining experience. I'd never go back and am totally not tempted to try the new one on Limestone Rd.
Tony's Cafe on Possum Park Rd north of Newark has THE BEST PIZZA . . and I've tried a LOT of pizza. www.tonyseatery.com
The paper plates, etc., at Buffalo Wild Wings are not a putoff for me, but I have heard other people bring that up before.
No big deal to me. Most of their food you eat with your hands. Interesting how this has come up, since there's another Seinfeld episode that features eating candy bars with a fork and knife.
Is Buffalo Wild Wings the only place to get good wings? Of course not. Are their wings always undercooked? I'd guess no, but it's matter of taste.
I'll never knock the sauce they have. Remember, you'll never catch me trying the Parmesan Garlic or Asian Zing, or even the barbeque sauces. Only regular buffalo sauce for me, please, and their hot sauce is the best around.
Plenty of pubs have TVs. Few have the amount of large screens like Buffalo Wild Wings has. As far as bad reviews, remember it's easy to do so without signing your name.
I'd recommend Tony's Pizza to anyone, especially to those who prefer New York style pizza.
Here's my name, dopey.
