We're a few days into October and I have been dropping the ball on alerting you all of National Pizza Month. Take the month and search for your favorite pizza place. Whether it be strictly take-out, fancy toppings, or homemade, it's time to eat. Read what I said last year about pizza and where to enjoy it in October.

Alexandria, VA: Faccia Luna
Chicago: Giordano's
Los Angeles: Mozza
Phoenix: Pizzeria Bianco
Provo, UT: Pizzeria 712
Salt Lake City: Este
Washington, D.C.: Matchbox
