Screw the stupid iPhone 4G: Let's "unbox" a La Rosa pizza!
In the past week or so, the entire Internet has turned into one giant wankfest for the iPhone 4G, with thousands upon thousands of Apple minions publicly pleasuring themselves to Steve Jobs' latest overpriced call-dropping platform Fruit Ninja console phone. (Today's the day that many pre-ordered 4Gs are arriving.) The most common way in which people tend to show off the unique, one-of-a-kind device that six million Japanese toddlers have been using since 2004 is via an "unboxing," a photo essay or video clip during which a consumer pornographically pulls out removes each component of a new gadget to make sure everyone knows how cool and smart and special they are for spending money. Meal Ticket says screw Jobs and screw the 4G. Let's unbox something that everyone can appreciate: A PIZZA!
Last night, we ordered a half pepperoni/onion and half plain pie from La Rosa, the excellent square pizza maker at Broad and Snyder. (We know their potato pizza is the truth, but decided to switch it since that's what we got last time.) We "unboxed" it, ate it, thoroughly enjoyed it and are now very proud to share our photos with you. Have fun, and remember: Even with the addition of garlic salt and crushed red pepper flakes, iPhones still taste like crap.

At least the iPhone 4G has a web site. Anyone have a link to their menu?
I don't think they have one, Holly. They do pizza and stromboli only; basically just call and ask them if they can do something and they'll say yes or no.
I am obsessing on that potato pizza - wanted to see if they had any similar tricks up their sleeve or any variations on the theme. I'm thinking sausage atop the potato.
This is unrelated but you have a new photo on your "about" page. Hot.
Drew, their pizza looks to be thin like Santucci Bros. I am not a fan of the big thick and doughy Sicilian style pizza. Can you confirm this square pie is on the thinner side? It looks legit.
Dave, it's thicker than Santucci's but thinner/lighter than your average square Sicilian-style slice.
This is as close as you can get to true Roman-style pizza in Philly.
Stupid iPhone 4 was not in stock today ( June 27 ) because idiots Can't put the phone back in stock till june 29 !!!! I'm so pissed right Now !!!!!!!!!!
