Humble Pie

I ran across the photo above on a blog by Andrew Hyatt. Mr. Hyatt describes it as such:

My local slice shop, "A&J Pizza," has the slogan on their box: "You've tried the rest..." I'll stop right there for a second. Now, your Manhattan place would fill that out with the standard "now try the best!"

But that's just not how we do it in Queens. No, "You've tried the rest, now try A&J for a change."

On the same site, Mr. Hyatt also writes about DeMarco's.

AJ's was the pizza place of my youth, this brings back very fond memories...

I also like that map of Italy on the box. I for one would move to a province entitled Coffee or Cheese Calzone in a heartbeat!
