Caruso's for Pizza

 On my way to the airport Saturday night to catch a NYC flight (you
 guessed it: pizza craving), I followed Jim Mann's advice and tried
 Caruso's in dahntahn Mt. Lebanon. Excellent. Nice spicy sauce and a huge
 helping of cheese (including some sprinkled on after it came out of the
 oven). Actually, I'll have to specify a little less cheese next time.
 The man working the oven (it HAD to be Mr. Caruso, if there is one),
 told me with a charming Italian accent that I was "gonna love it; the
 dough is very fresh." And he was right!

 Caruso's compares favorably with Bado's. It's less expensive, but lacks
 much of a dining room. They also sell "peetsa" (you know, stuff without
 tomato sauce).
