No argument there. I have not had their pizza in years. I am suddenly dying for some of that sweet sauce.

My girlfriend is from Homewood and we go up there a few times a year. It's sort of mandatory that we get Aurelio's when we're up there-- usually the night we get there. (Her sister worked there for years.) I love actually eating at the restaurant. Serious mafioso meeting place vibe.

They will actually ship frozen pizza anywhere in the continental US. When my girlfriend and I started dating, I had one shipped down here. You have to give them a couple days' notice and it will arrive in a box with some dry ice. It's not necessarily cheap, but it's quite good. I recommend it highly. There's information on their website. I actually have a link to it from my website.
