Been meaning to try Eda's Pizzeria in Manayunk. Got weird hours (4-9 only, Wed-Sun), but their pizza looks AMAZING on their IG page. They do New Haven style in the Philadelphia area so definitely had to go. Plus, seeing Portnoy's review early this week meant that it's gonna get SWAMPED!
So, having some free time while I recover, I left the house at 3 (48 minute drive down the Schuylkill) and got there before the line started. 10 minute wait and it was out. DAMN!!
This was worth the drive (I finished the entire thing there). I rate it up there with the best around the Philadelphia area and burbs. Does it top my favorite spot on the Main Line (Johnny's). No, but this is definitely top 5. Only hiccup I can say, the oven must have been scorching hot as the bottom on a portion of the pie was pretty burnt (and I know the difference between charred and burnt). But it didn't spoil the overall pie for 90% of it.
Oh and the RC Cola? As a kid if the 80s (born mid 70s but grew up in the 80s to mid 90s (graduated '95) RC was always a great soda back growing up. Even though I don't drink soda anymore (unless I'm sick and Coca-Cola is VERY helpful for settling an upset stomach & nulls nausea), I had to get this. Brought me back.
Oh and if you want to know my top 5....
Johnny's Pizza of Bryn Mawr
Angelo's
Del Rossi's
Eda's
Collegeville Italian Bakery (their Norristown Red Top is fantastic).
Next up, CJ & D's Trenton Tomato Pie down on Passyunk Ave (between 9th and 10th) in Passyunk Square. Love Trenton style Tomato Pie so I can't wait to give them a go. Only issue, their hours are worse, lol. Wed 5-8, Fri 5-9 & Sunday 1-6. Maybe next week sometime.
no disrespect

Too burnt or just right? Sauce looks good.
