| - Chicago peeps, if you've never been to AJ's, there's one very good reason to go: Gino's East frozen pizzas
Yeah
Certainly not as good as the real deal, but still better than 90% of the "fresh" pizza you'll find in the valley, and easily the best frozen pie in town.
Like pretty much everything at AJ's, they're not cheap. Usually $9-$11 bucks. I generally refuse to pay more than $4 for a frozen pizza, but . . . that spicy sauce, the cornbread crust, the "sheet" of Italian sausage . . . sprinkle some crushed red pepper on the top before you bake . . . mmm, fantastic.
I only go to AJ's to buy a few things. Good BBQ meatballs in the deli. Their soups of the day are generally incredible, especially the seafood chowder. In fall they've had pumpkin tamales that are seriously mind blowing. And every once in a while they have a smokin' deal at the butcher counter
Oh, and PS . . . their flower area is amazing AND actually reasonably priced. Guys, you can thank me later
