Everybody knows what's for dinner the day after Thanksgiving--turkey leftovers! But what do Americans eat the night before? Take a guess. Give up?Pizza! According to Pizza Marketplace, Thanksgiving eve is one of the top three nights during the year for pizza delivery. (The other two are Super Bowl Sunday and Halloween.) It makes perfect sense. After a long day of menu planning and pre-holiday preparations, who the heck wants to cook?
Since Denton is a two-college town, finding decent pizza is a piece of...well...pie. There are plenty of places that deliver, but if you wait until you're hungry to pick up the phone, you may be sorry. While these restaurants will do their best to handle the volume of orders, expect a longer wait than usual for your pizza to show up at your door. Even so, be nice to the delivery person and give him or her some love--in the form of dollar bills, if course. (Delivery drivers have to eat too, y'know.)
You can find a complete listing of local pizzerias in the Yellow Pages, so I won't list them here. However, for your convenience, here's a few favorites, listed in no particular order:
