Shakespeare's Pizza-Columbia (West)

Hours:

Price: $; $$

Things we'd go to Columbia to do: Watch the Tigers get their asses handed to them on the gridiron and/or hardcourt. Browse all the cute college-town bookstores. Eat at Shakespeare's Pizza -- which might be the best pizza in St. Louis when you get right down to it, notwithstanding the 100-mile drive. Pounded out in a perpetual frenzy by a bunch of groovy-hippy college kids and post-collegiates, Shake's dough is made in both white and wheat varieties. (Yeah, wheat crusts usually suck, but these rock.) The cheese is provolone, not mozz. (It's tough to tell the difference.) And the toppings come in a nearly endless, always fresh assortment: pineapple, hand-sliced pepperoni, peppers, lean ground beef, jalapeños, broccoli.... Located right across the street from Mizzou's campus, Shakespeare's weathered-wood interior reeks of study breaks, first dates and drinking games; in short, it's a fantastic vibe. No wonder regulars traditionally send in snapshots of themselves wearing their Shakespeare's T-shirts in faraway places -- even farther away than St. Louis.

The Masterpiece

includes all of the toppings in the toppings.... list above. this is a very stupidly large amount of food. yes, the big one is thirty clams, but its a meal for four... its got over a pound of meat, over a half pound of cheese, and more vegetables than a rabbit farm.

brighton makes these from scratch, from the recipe on the back of the chocolate chip bag, and the note card in grandmas recipe box in the kitchen cabinet. really. these are truly homemade. not a dieters selection.
