THE GET DOWN
If you are in Long Beach and you love true Napoleon style pizza then look no further.
By Napoleon, I’m talking the ooey, gooey, thin crusted, cooked juuuuust right type of pizza.
The kind you can fold in half to eat as the sauce then the cheese tends to dollop down the front, just missing the white jeans you are wearing.
I’d actually make a trip to Long Beach JUST for the pizza at Michael’s. Hmmm…
Have you ever read Eat. Pray. Love? The pie described in that book inspired my trip to Pizzaria Da Michele in Naples. Well, this pie right here t Michael’s is the closest thing you’ll get to Pizzeria Da Michele in Naples without actually leaving the country.
Pack up that runner and head to Longbeach now. It’s worth it.

For those with little
runners & screamers:
Easily forgiven:
Here, you can forget the fact that it’s your rambunctious child that’s screaming and STILL enjoy most of your meal.
Not promoted, but you should take the chance:
If your toddler is at the stage when an iPad or some other colorful distraction can be used for an un-interrupted 20 minutes, then go for it.
Uh-uh, NO WAY, don’t even think about it!:
I don’t care how cute your toddler is. Pop your head in… turn around… walk away. PERIOD.
No contained area:
A place you cannot leave your toddler alone, not even for a second.
Enclosed, but space is tight:
If YOU can’t fit between the tables then you know you couldn’t catch your toddler if they tried – this isn’t Norm’s.
