@Felthry Yes, although I also want stromboli without seeing the word.
Mmmmmm, stromboli.
re: food
@Austin_Dern weirdly enough, we got one reply to this from someone who's never had stromboli!! i feel like they are really missing out

re: food
@Felthry They are, although I'm not sure there's a better way to experience stromboli than getting it from the lone, cheap pizza place in the mall's food court during your 30-minute lunch break while you're 17 years old, and not everybody can have that experience.
re: food
@Austin_Dern I dunno--getting it from a proper good new york style pizzeria is a pretty damn good way to have it
or homemade, if you want to put some effort into it!

re: food
@Felthry Oh, yes, my experience was in central Jersey, so it was a New York style pizzeria. Second-tier mall, though back then that still meant it had a bookstore, a music store, and a carpet store.
re: food
@Felthry They were great, for a while there.
... This particular mall was half-empty in 1989, it happens, although it was functional enough at the time.
Oh yeah, it had a shoe store and, around Christmas, a postal substation for people who got stuff at the card store and wanted to mail it out right away.
re: food
@Felthry @Austin_Dern We've been to a couple of sad and empty malls once or twice. Most of our memories are from one that wasn't empty at all though!
re: food
@Austin_Dern also barely remember malls being anything other than sad and empty
