It had been a long time since I had eaten a pizza from Carol of Casey's and I never tried their Sicilian pizza. After shoveling snow and heading out to do errands that took me to the Penn Hills Shopping Center, I thought I would treat myself to a slice.
I'm glad I did! The small restaurant has four picnic style tables for customers who would like to eat there, and it was busy even though it was a little late for the lunch hour. I was greeted warmly by a very pleasant young woman, who was equally pleasant while answering the phone and talking to other customers. The snow started to get heavier, so she packed my slice to go and I was on my way.

It was still warm by the time I got home and it smelled wonderful. The sturdy crust on the Sicilian pizza slice was about 1/2" thick, with crisp edges and a light interior. The homemade sauce was rich and delicious, and had small chunks of tomato and even a few tomato seeds. The pizza was topped with a generous layer of fresh cheese that was melted to perfection.
Carol of Casey's has an extensive menu which includes fun foods - like wings, fries, jalapeno rolls, fried mushroom and provolone, chicken tenders and more, hot pocket Wedges, red or white pizza, calzones and strombolis, salads, pasta dinners, focaccia sandwiches, gyros and wraps and a long list of oven baked hoagies. They just added a fish hoagie to the menu, which I bet will be popular during Lent. Carol of Casey's offers 15 types of specialty pizzas, the newest of which is Roasted Red Pepper & Chicken, which sounds great - I think I'll stop back again and try it!
