A pizza plate soaked in pizza grease, with a few key horse picks a day.
The grease never lies.
The Sicilian Slice: thick, airy, and cut square from a deep pan, with a crisp, oil-fried bottom and sauce that soaks right into the crumb. Today's plate sat under a Sicilian pie, and the grease gathered in rich, confident pools.
Pizza fact: Sicily's original sfincione is topped with tomatoes, onions, and anchovies, with breadcrumbs instead of a heavy layer of cheese — the flavour was in the sauce long before it was in the melt.
Grease reading: today's pools held firm for Belmont Park, Harrahs Philadelphia, and Laurel Park — three clear reads in the thick of the pan, no smearing, no second guesses.
Every day the pizza gets eaten, the plate gets read. Out of the whole card, a few key picks rise to the surface of the grease — those are the ones written here, each with the track it's running at. A fresh plate is served daily.
