The Pizza Show: Philadelphia
Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 тра 2024
- We're headed to Pennsylvania, where we'll learn that Philly is about more than the cheesesteak. Frank Pinello meets with a fourth-generation pizzaiolo and a new-school dough wizard who show us that there's not one style defining Philly pizza, and that's a good thing. Between ingredient shopping at the South 9th Street Italian Market and trying the Philly Taco on South Street, Frank gets the full tour of the Philadelphia pizza scene before heading out to Roots Country Market in Lancaster to meet with seventy-year-old Norma Knepp who can make pizza with (or better than) the best of them. There's so much delicious pizza packed into the state, we're petitioning to have it renamed Pizzalyvania.

Philly is good for more than a cheesesteak.

thanks for this video it reminds me of home... i loved the taco challenge back when i used to live there
yessss thank you! lol.. everyone from outside of Philly always have an assumption that "ohh, your from Philly, you must love cheesesteaks".. we don't just sit around and eat cheesesteaks all day. Lol. Great show you have. I enjoyed watching this episode in particular.
Munchies wish you would do pizza from Buffalo NY
Wish you would Do pizza From Buffalo NY
you guys need to surprise frank and send someone in to do an episode on best and frank
Frank handles difficult personalities so well, always reads the situation in a way that hes polite and respectful while making the show entertaining for the viewer. Best host on Munchies by a mile
Alan absolutely...like when the older man at the market told Frank "he can learn something from Norma"....Frank could have been a super dick but he was totally humble.
Rob Lo eh dude was prob just messing around, old people are always like those dang youngsters should learn a bit from us
That's because he's an old school new york cat like us, and we aren't so sensitive to jokes from old timers, it's all fun and games! Cheers!@@SweetChinMuzik1
Good comment.
Alan but it bothers me when he goes to cities like philly and Chicago and even Naples and hits these major chains. Many of these places are hardly hidden gems. Best restaurants, including pizza shops, don’t belong to major food companies.
Frank is always such a personable and respectable guy. I mainly watch this cuz of him
he kind of overdoes it though, can't really blame him, all americans are like that on screen
how do you overdo respecting other people? your life must be miserable. don't blame frank for what you lack.
J Smooove ayeee smooove man love your reactions!!
Very respectable
Frosty Peeks All Americans are personable and respectable on screen? Not sure if that's really all that true but I'm American and will gladly accept the rare compliment lol
My brother's douchbag cat is really loud when no one is home, but one day, we found out that Frank's voice soothed him. Now before we leave for work in the morning, we set his furry ass up with the Pizza Show playlist so he doesn't bother the neighbors with his bitching. Thank you, Frank. Thank you for bringing peace to my home, pizza really does sooth the restless beast.
Best thing I ever read
Great story.
I just can’t 😂😂
yo im dead.
YOU, HAVE JUST KILLED ME AND RESURRECTED ME!😂😂😂😂
Dude was like, "don't touch my dough, man"
that guy is weird in a bad way, kind of narcissistic
@@p00pie Basically a hipster... That's the vibe I got at least.
771 yeah the thing the bothered me was when he said, “it’s not about me, it’s not about you, it’s about the pizza”
And his pizzas don't even look that good, they look average at best
It was really weird seeing Frank have to fold his arms, lean against a countertop, and actively stop himself from helping ... he's usually so helpful and engaged with his hosts but this guy was like "My pizza is sacred, keep your filthy peasant hands off of it."
It reminds me of that guy in either the Rome episode or the Naples episode ... who said "You're a baker, you're a pizzaiolo, not a heart surgeon." Meaning pizza isn't a religion and shouldn't be so damn serious.
"I can kinda get why people may want to try eating this."
The most polite way of saying "this sucks."
i mean it's bread and meat and cheese wrapped in more bread and cheese.
it's all hyper-palatable, it's not going to suck.
it's just deranged
I love how polite he was being about the Philly Taco...he clearly thought it was awful.
Simon Metin probably really good when ur high af
Simon Metin I’ve lived in south philly my whole life nobody eats that
It looks like a bready mess that is impractical to eat. I mean, you can just put the philly cheesesteak filling onto a pizza. Putting the sandwich in the pizza? Nah.
Simon Metin Just the idea is gross to me. I would just eat them separately
I was just about to write the same thing lol, he hated that thing, no doubt
Love frank he’s such a kind soul anyone could get along with him, even that weirdo who only sells 40 pizzas a day.
facts lol that guy was pretty awkward
Can’t lie that smile at the end gave me the willies.
that guy was basically insufferable. but isn't 40 pizzas per day pretty good?
Agreed. Who tf sells only 40 pizzas a day?? Reserving dough and shit is severely retarded
4 years later and still the absolute BEST PIZZA SHOW ON UA-cam! Frank has a genuine passion for the pie game.
That woman at the end was so nice 😊. She seemed just like his nonna
classic norma
Norma is a truly wonderful person who has helped me become a better pizzaiolo . Her and her friend Frank can be found on numerous UA-cam videos making pizza and telling stories.
Ken A a link would be cool :)
Frank Giaquinto in PMQ Pizza Magazine. www.pmq.com/November-2014/Pizza-maker-Frank-Giaquinto-once-made-a-pie-for-the-King-of-Rock-and-Roll/
she was awesome!
Thank you for highlighting Norma. What a sweet lady without any of the snobby pizza pretentions. The chemistry between the two of you was delightful. I love it when non celebrity chefs win awards.
nobody from philly has actually ever tried the taco thing.
C K you would get your ass chewed out if you were walking down the street in philly with that in your hand lol
C K Yeah man, that’s what I was thinking. I’m from Aston(south Philly) and I’ve never seen or heard of this.. It’s gross, straight up... Felt like I was gonna have a heart attack just watching.
I was about to say I’ve never seen someone do that. I’m tempted to do it, but I wouldn’t be caught dead in philly with that thing.
I agree with you totally C K which ponders the question Why eat em together when you can enjoy them separately? by themselves they are great together that's stretching the weird barrier just a little. Lmao
C K same with the London “marmite pizza” on that episode. I like Frank a lot. And his show is great. But that marmite thing was bullshit
He seriously does deserve a season 3.. 😔
Why was the show discontinued?
@@gamalsankara1388 My guess is Covid? Not sure tho
@@gamalsankara1388 well what else can you do with pizza?
@@OliveOilFan go to more places: Tokyo, New Jersey
Probably because he has the tv personality and quick wit of a dead moth. Just says Right…right….wow….thank you
Love this series. Raw and uncensored, the best.
🍕 🍕 🍕 🍕 🍕 🍕 🍕 🍕 🍕
That sound wrong
His interaction with Norma was so heart warming :)
The interaction between Frank and Norma was so heart warming to watch. The world would be a much better place if people treated each other that way. Yeah I know, Frank is that way to everyone. Good dude.
I love Frank he is the sweetest. He's never malicious, even when he tries some of the dumbest ideas. He is the cutest I just want to hug him all day
This is the best, most wholesome food show on the internet. Frank is great and always brings the best out of the people around him.
I like all the different stops, styles, and people.
he is such a gracious interviewer.
I fell out in Jim's steaks bathroom once when I was a junkie. They didn't even call the cops. 10/10
Noice
😂😂😂
Speed balls or down?
The guy who invented the Philly taco must have been high at the time.
Luke Cahill or very hungry
and probably a New Yorker
It's actually called a Philly fold don't nobody in Philly eat something called a Philly taco
Probably a Texan who was there for a football game lol
Probably hungover
Frank needs to be on Hot Ones.
That limited pizza guy seems dead behind the eyes. Cool shop tho
his definetly smoking weed thats why his so chill
I think he's actually autistic. The limited eye contact and the way he didn't let the host near his dough. That's totally fine though, at least he found a way to channel it into something productive.
BB-8 I
That guy and his customers seem like the worst type of ignorant hipsters.
I'd rather just get a pizza hut
Jeff Barg is a hack. No one in Philadelphia does the Philly Taco. Jeff just wants to be on Vice. Sad.
Stephen Hellinger
It honestly didn't not look like a good combination...it's not even a clever concept. Pretty dumb.
I'm pretty sure that there's cheesesteak ingredients on a pizza, even up here in Canada. The Philly Taco seems like it's unnecessary.
+SyxxPunk yeah, it's not really "a thing". I started seeing this Philly Taco thing being mentioned in the media a couple of years ago. Every time it comes up a bunch of us go "Wait. I've never seen this. Where'd this BS come from?" It's good to finally know the answer. This columnist made it up. Who knows, it may catch on but until such time everybody in Philadelphia except for *that guy* thinks it's a bonehead move; some would say "unnecessary".
...but give it time. LOL
He's almost certainly Jewish
what do you mean wants to be vice?
I love how this show focuses on the tradition and history of these businesses behind their products, makes me feel real comfy somehow
based on my experience working as a cook in various hotel kitchens, the solo pizza guy is that one solitary guy in the bakery kitchen who just wanna work night shift every night so he can work alone.
exactly! dude must be a blast at parties. lol
@@itr0863 🤣😂🤣😂👍
Pretty sure he’s on the autism spectrum. Not being rude, just saying…
Lived in philly my whole life and never heard of the philly taco
Maybe you have to be in the neighbourhood of the pizza place they get that slice from? Either way, Philly Taco looks f-ed up... maybe if you dump the cheesesteak meat and cheese onto the pizza
Lenny Gipson it’s just some stupid new thing.
Yea it sounds like this restaurant paid a hefty fee for an online news ad saying everybody loves the cheesesteak pizza meanwhile it was probably one drunk person who said “this is great”.
Well it's there and from your city. Disgusting.
Solo guy - *kind of introverted*
the internet - 😤😤😤
His pizza is extremely average anyways.
@@ADRENELINEDUDE is it really? Wow
@@ADRENELINEDUDE ppl wouldnt stand in line for hours if it was man, let the man have his success.
@@ADRENELINEDUDE Your existence is extremely average🤙
@@ADRENELINEDUDE Yeah I never had it but it looked pretty freaking good.
Only watched this for Frank. Such a likeable kind soul!
Frank is lucky to have this series, He goes around to learn tricks from everywhere & bring it back to his shop. Such a smart man.
also owns multiple restaurants and sold out his own pizza spot
its 4:01 am rn and I'm debating if i should watch this right now or wait till the afternoon when I'm eating to watch this lol
_Donjose I'm eating the epitome of pizza while watching this : leftover little caesars😂
_Donjose or both!
So I'm home now haha, work was great now time to enjoy this while eating lol
Norma looks like a chill person
Frank and Norma need their own show together they're SO DAMN CUTE
that Norma from Norma's pizza warmed my heart so much.
That older women has a great soul
Like a wizard's sleeve
Norma is so cute :D
norma is a national treasure
Membership ;)
Shes dope!
Watching how kindly frank was talking to nonna melted my heart
16:14 , the warmest thing i've ever seen in my life
Dude smile single handedly light up the world
This series is getting better
A
A
The 40 pizzas guy isn't an people's person I guess
Ajit Agoram he was just high
Ajit Agoram he's got a touch of asperger's I'm sure
he seems autistic
nah he didnt want to anyone to touch his dough. lol
I used to be the same way but I started learning how to talk to people by either waving and smiling at random people or saying hi and not gonna lie when you get a response it feels so great now I can legit talk to who ever 😁😊
Norma is the cutest thing 😍, hope she is doing well
the philly taco is listed on the CDC's travel warning website for Philadelphia.
Norma is a beautiful soul. You gotta love how food can bring people together
I love this show ! Watch it every time ! Frank is the pizza man ! thanks Munchies
I have adored pizza from a child to present. Love this Show!!!!!
HODL
8:23 "are the still lookin at me..? OH shit awhhh turn away turn away"
Norma is so humble and a champion! She reminds me of my grandmother
Best show on Munchies. Frank Pinello should do a travel-food show, and visit some exotic places outside the US.
OMG!!!!! SOUTH PHILLY!!!!! I miss my hometown. I recommend everyone to visit Philly and cherish the little things in life that makes you remember the times you were happy.
9th street, baby
Love how Frank shows so much respect to all of his guests. Seems like a great guy.
Frank has my heart!!! Just they way he puts all his focus on the person he’s talking to, melts my heart!!!
Seriously the best show on UA-cam, love it so much, Frank is the best. The story at the end with Norma made me a little teary eyed :P
Vikingr Beerdserkr your name just reminded me I had such an unforgettable pizza in ICELAND
yeah
in iceland hahaha it was like bacon with redcurrant jam and cheese, i ordered because i was curious about such a combination and turned out so delicious, I'll never forget. hahaha
i just had dinner and my mind is on pizzas and i need that philly in a slice of pizza omg
i'm sure the 40 pizza guy has good pizza, but if he made more than 40 pizza's and didn't "sell out", he wouldn't be as popular. ppl just love to wait in line....esp knowing when the place only has "40".
Yeah but hes also a pretentious douche.
Leorick T. I cant stand this self loving prick. Hes no Lucali but sure acts like it
@@jamied931 you guys are fucking weird, look at how he acts just in general serving it. His body reactions and way he talks and refuses eye contact most of the time lines up with people on the autistic spectrum. He found a way to focus his particular skills into something he prolly loves and yall were shitting on him a year, 2 years ago without thinking about it. weirdos.
Bring this show back
Omg, Norma just had me smiling non-stop. You can see she's just pure love&heart. Food made by someone like that can only be great!! Bless ya, girl!!
Nice food, nice people, kindness all around. Frank, your show is amazing. Thank you!
Frank almost got me to shed a tear at the end with the country lady. Also, noticed Frank wasn't feeling it at the 40 pizza per day guy. Awesome show, nonetheless.
yep
That Grandma from Lancaster was so sweet
I was working for a month in Chicago in Wicker Park and I ate at Bonci Pizza, almost every day. It was great!!!
Frank is sooooo humble😍😍💖💖!!!!
Frank is a great presenter. He should do more foods other than pizza.
na. stick to pizza. since its his passion. just need to expand to other places. like West Coast or Overseas just to try unique shit.
Sahil Paul I think what makes the show good is that we can trust Frank knows what he's talking about because he's been in the pizza business for a while. He clearly loves it and knows when it's good. He might be out of his depth with other foods.
He did state fair of tx foods recently
13:26 this guy lol 😂 what a lonesome day lol 😂
Nobody:
Frank: ~𝙨𝙖𝙡𝙪𝙙~
The guy is obviously a polite control freak
Frank is such a cool guy. He's the sort of guy who seems to bring out the best out of everyone around him.
Thank you for The Pizza Show I love it. 6 years of slinging pizza for me and it brings back memories
I love this show. Being a long time foodie and especially when pizza is involved, its great to learn about places I've never heard of. I will definitely be trying some of these out in Philly
09:40 poor guy stuck at pretending to like the pizzeria since 85 😂
I like this frank guy... gonna watch more because of him
Norma is a gem. what a lovely lady. made me so happy when i saw her crying with joy after she won the competition.
Frank is such an honest, humble, friendly and genuine guy. He makes me so happy
So I just clicked on the first video to have something going on in the background and now im on like my 20th episode. This dude Frank is a great host and great personality.
The solo guy makes me feel really sad cause I feel like he isn't really a people's person and I relate so much 😭😭
Wish this show was still around. Angelo's South Philly deserves to be featured.
Frank is a really humble and stand up guy. I would love to see him do some more episodes.
Frank and Joe are the exact opposite
People talking bout joe like something wrong with him, like no hes fine and well he just seems more to himself
Tbh he seemed fine the entire time
There are so many sweet and wholesome moments in these episodes
I'm floored by how many personal connections I have to this video! Joe Beddia and I went to the same high school. I had college classes with a member of the Katz family, and I grew up a few miles from Roots Market in Lancaster. Pizza, Philly, and Lancaster....three of my favorite things in the world...all in one video! Thanks for this, Frank!
Oh, also, I've done the Philly Taco twice. It's great.
I’m from philly and I’ve never even heard of philly taco. But Lorenzo’s pizza is the best!
The hipster lone wolf pizza maker is one of the least charismatic guys I’ve ever seen on camera.
LOLOL
tiptopluongo .. hipster loan wolf pizza maker...lmao😂😂😂
LMAOOO
did you see how stingy he was with the juice? he did not want to share with Frank
Colin Grimm exactly
Your a amazing person bro.. you with Norma was awesome and I love how you respect every different style of pizza making. You need your own show on food network. You truly deserve it!
Lady from rural PA wins a contest for NY style pizza in NYC with a Jersey style pizza. That made my day.
I'm so in love with Frank. He's just so precious
That solo pizza guy is trying real hard to be the next Dom Demarco and you know what? Sure he may come off a little hipster-ey but if he actually sticks with it for another 50 years his spot might very well become the next Di Fara's. That's what separates the hipster douches from the real artisans. Time spent.
Galactic123 amen, but you can't tell from how he talks he is burnt out, but that is common when you find success suddenly and have to carry the load still. But so many so called new aged restauranteurs come and go quick cause they aren't dedicated they just want to be seen as the hot thing on the review sites and then they are gone, but it's cool when you see a young guy hanging and making a legacy
Galactic123 didn't even want Frank to touch the dough..."too wet", lol🤔
His pizza didn't even look like anything special though. Not really sure I'm buying into the hype.
It's more about taste, bro. I've had Di Fara's. The best pizza I've ever had, but it's not the prettiest NY slice out there. And besides, if he really does it for 50 more years, he'll be constantly perfecting his craft as he goes along. Like Jiro dreams of Sushi, just with pizza.
Didn't like his vibe. Wouldn't let frank get down.
I love Frank Pinello ... He is a humble respectful guy & talented Chef ... Great Presenter!
I remember the first time I went to Italy as a kid and went round to my aunt's neighbours house to eat and she had made a large pan pizza with potato on top, I reeeeeally wasn't sure about it... I ate it and it instantly made sense 🤗 that potato and ricotta slice brought it all back for me, looks so yum
My question tho is...at Joe's did your 2 pizzas cut into that 40?! Lol 😂
Jiggly Bumflesh I was asking the same thing
I bet you it killed him to create an extra 2
@@bbouche1229 🤣
🤣
Every time I watch this I want to go there and eat EVERYTHING
these videos make me so happy
I really don't even watch this for the pizza anymore - I watch it for the awesome storytelling - great work.
I actually live for this show
Amen.
Americans....devaluating words on the daily by extreme exaggeration.
"Are you the one man show here Norma?"
"Yeah, I make all the pizza's and I have one helper."
".....oh so a two man show?"
"Yeah, except I'm a woman."
"..."
"...."
these are my favorite videos of all time thank you
My family's core is from Utica, NY and the old school way of life lives there just like this. I grew up in Florida in the very early 90's and remember my grandparents taking me to an Italian market that did it just like this. I love how this video brought up old school memories. We must be eating like Gods compared to newer cities elsewhere. Shout out to the mom and pop shops doing it OG style and keeping the family involved.
the amount of juice he gave him can't be serious, lmfao
I guess he gave a little bit just to taste it
I just ordered pizza delivery. Love this show. :-) Thanks Frank for bringing us everything pizza!
Frank brought your pizza?
I'm from Jersey and I will always be a NY/NJ pizza guy for life but oh my god, that Taconelli's pizza looks amazing and made me almost cry of how beautiful it was.
This is the best show on Munchies period ! Frank's personality typifies Good People and what better topic to explore in current America than pizza ....it never gets old. Keep up the awesome work Frank and Munchies !
Frankie boy! welcome to Philadelphia 🔔
I was born in Lancaster, PA I haven't been back in years and this episode's makin' me tear up a bit... nah, I'm just typing this in the shower.
My parents ask me if I'm tired of pizza and this show is why I will never get tired of pizza.
