A pizza that is similar to Ledo's, though less greasy and more flakey, is Pizza Oven. There's one in the East Pines shopping center, just off of the BW Parkway, near New Carrollton. (Is that Riverdale Road?) It is also square, with flakey crust and a somewhat sweet sauce. I just love it, though it may well have been the first pizza I ever tasted. It might have been the first solid food I ever tasted, for that matter. I usually get just extra cheese, though I also like their shredded mushrooms (as opposed to most pizza's rubbery, sillohuette-sliced mushrooms). I have referred to Pizza Oven and Ledo's as Prince Georges Pizza for years. It would be interesting to trace the introduction of pizza to D.C., to see if there really is a common thread to the two. -- Wayne Folta (folta@cs.umd.edu)
