Capone’s Coal Fired Pizza—Pizza with a Theme in Fort Myers, FL
When the Pizza Snob and Mrs. Pie visit friends, they often want to be hospitable and take us to their favorite pizza place. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn’t.

Downtown House of Pizza—NY Pie in Fort Myers, FL
Yes! It is downtown and truly a house of pizza. Travelling inland from our Sanibel space on the beach, Mrs. Pie and I took a journey to visit the fun downtown of Fort Myers. There we found a way cool collection of shops, palm trees and street art, as well as pizza at the Downtown […]
Dante’s Coal Fired Pizza—Sanibel Island’s Best
Not that I ever for one minute doubted that Mrs. Pie loved me, but she sure showed me when she booked our condo rental at the Sanibel Island beach in walking distance of a pizza joint. Better yet, it was one that cooked their pies with my favorite food fuel. Coal! Holding the excitement in […]
Al Forno Al Fresco–Amazing Pizza Surprise at Sanibel Island Farmers’ Market
If you read my last post, you learned that Mrs. Pie and I were not enjoying the beaches of beautiful Sanibel Island.

Pizza in Sanibel Island, FL—First Stop: The Great White Grill
The Pizza Snob hasn’t been happy during the pandemic. Not only have I not been travelling to new exciting pizza joints, I haven’t even been eating much local pizza.

So, imagine my lucky surprise when I came across their station at the Tampa airport on the way home! In my opinion, […]
Rico’s Pizzeria & Pasta House—Florida Pizza on St. Armands Circle
A few weeks after my holiday on the Florida Gulf Coast, I was having breakfast with a British friend in London’s Soho. After catching up on the many years in between when we last met, my mention of Sarasota had him rather surprisingly mention his recent visit to St. Armands Circle. How odd it was […]
Ripfire Pizza & BBQ—Strange Bedfellows in Siesta Key, But Fab Pizza
It’s happened before and will probably happen again. While on a holiday dining experience with Mrs. Pie, I’m overcome by an immediate desire to first grab some new pizza as an appetizer. Such was the case earlier this year when on our way to get a seafood fix while on the Florida coast, I couldn’t […]

This excellent example of a combo Italian food grocery store and casual restaurant brought me to a very happy place. Wandering about gathering delightful […]
Rico’s Pizzeria — Another Sarasota Slice
After my smash slice at Sal’s Pizzeria & Pasta House, I figured I better get to work on the rest of the joints in Sarasota’s Gateway Shopping Center. So, wasting no time, I burned little calories in walking across the road to Rico’s Pizzeria. I got there so quick I even managed to continue with […]
