I also have to give props to the Greek restaurants in the area, especially G&D and Angelo's they too have great pizza, a must try!

Shakes is great, but I have to say I like G&D just a little better. I recently had A friend also mention Angelo's in COMO, it's on the list. I just hope I can remember not to automatically go to Shakes or G&D...

Thanks.

You have the perfect reason for a road trip... Looks like Joplin's not to far. Pizza by Stout was recomended by FredNash. It's only 60 miles...

Just make sure and let me know what you think.

Just a quick heads up, Anthony Bourdain apparently visited Woody's Wood Fire Pizza in Joplin on a recent episode of his show 'No Reservations' if you want to see what it's like. I missed the episode but I'm going to try to catch it on re-runs.

Woody's originated in my hometown before it moved to Joplin. Personally, I didn't think it was very good.

Looks like you'll have to mark Stout's off your list

Here's one of their chairs from the bar embedded in a concrete wall of the Academy Sports store a couple of blocks away:
