I have eaten Pizza all around the country;Thin crust in NYC, thick/pan in Chicago. I have even indulged in the argument of white vs. red in Old Forge. ( for the uninitiated, that is another argument.) But Pizza by Pappas On North Washington AVe near Linden St in Scranton stands alone. It is a small thick crust pizza, loaded with a unique combination of cheeses. It has a good not great sauce, can be a bit greasy ( people DO mop the grease off the top with napkins), yet the sum is greater than the parts. It is not for everyone, but I do believe that if you want to do the NorthEast PA Pizza tour apopriately, you must stop at Pappas. I recommend it MOST highly.
