Cangiano's: A Picturesque Pizza
Cangiano's Clarks Summit is now CLOSED.Cangiano's is among my favorite places to grab a hoagie in Clarks Summit. I routinely grab "the cangiano" once every couple of weeks and enjoy it every time. I was in one day grabbing my sub with the flaky crunchy bread, when I noticed a sign that said that "grandma's pizza is here." I quickly asked the lady behind the counter if they were selling pizza, and just as quickly realized that was an idiotic question because the sign said they now had pizza! She was very friendly as usual and said that it was quite popular and they have sold out of it recently. I made a mental note that I would be returning very soon to alert the folks of NEPA that there was a new pizza on the scene and sure enough, within a week, I placed my order and took it over to a friends house where we were gathering to watch some football.
I was a little bewildered by what I was tasting, and what I tasted was next to nothing. The pizza which looked so amazing, suddenly tasted so bland in my mouth. I was really rooting for this pizza to be great because I like Cangiano's and I thought this pizza looked amazing. I took another bite hoping that the first was a fluke, and unfortunately it wasn't. The flavors were all muted and nothing really stuck out. The dough was flavorless, and seemed like the mass produced frozen dough that my fellow bloggers Keystone Pizza Critic and Pizza Quixote write about frequently. I can't be sure, but the super uniform air pockets and the chewy consistency lead me to believe this is the case. The sauce added a hint of flavor, but not a ton. On top of the sauce was a layer of sliced onions, which were not well received by our group as they made the pizza difficult to eat because we kept pulling them out like spaghetti. I personally prefer chopped onions if used like this as the provide better texture and flavor. The cheese on top was probably the best part because it was beautifully browned and as I said earlier - it just looked amazing.
