I generally prefer my pizza crust to be thin and crispy, but not from the chain that made that term famous. I am still waiting for the lines to die down at Coals, but it looks and sounds right up my alley.

Papalino's is very good, just off the beaten track for me.

I met a friend of mine and his wife at NABC (my first time) Friday night. They always rank high on the lists here on the forum and I couldn't resist the "refrigerator pizza" from it's description (double the cheese and double the toppings) on a thin crust baked in a deep dish pan (presumably to hold all the stuff).

Only problem was the moisture from the ingredients created a small lake in the bottom of the pan. This, in turn made the bottom of the crust soggy, very soggy. Quite the turn off from an otherwise respectable pizza.

My top 3 for quality and consistency are

Za's, BoomBozz, and Impellizzeri's.

Za's ingredients always taste fresh to me, and their wheat crust is superior to most. The long beer list only adds to the experience.

BoomBozz is perhaps the most unique pizzeria on Bardstown. That's not to say their pizza is weird or different necessarily, but I feel they really nailed the "gourmet" niche they were trying to hit. On tap, they rotate various microbrews which helps to keep me coming back.

Pizza and beer, that's a good formula.


I have yet to try Coal's, but that might be outside of my walking radius. :P
