Nominated for: BEST Pizza BEST Healthy Lunch
Along came Craig Mosmen and Mike Cassano, two University of Delaware grads with degrees in 'Great Pizza'. Soon they dreamt up an idea... "Manayunk needs a gourmet pizza cafe'! But hey, let's serve fresh and exciting salads too! " From there, a seed was planted. (Or, shall we say, a dough-ball was formed?)
After months of hard work, and a little practice making all those great pizza topping, salad-spinning, mouth-watering combinations come alive, Mike and Craig celebrated thier grand opening on September 13th, 2003. Together with Jack Johnson on the stereo, a life-size tomato-girl running amuck, and friends and family helping behind the counter, opening day went off without a hitch.
Craig and Mike haven't looked back since. (Have they had the chance?) Now, their "little pizza shop in Manayunk" has developed into "That great cafe' on Main Street". Passers-by no longer grumble, "Huh? The Couch Potato?"....oooh no...they proclaim at the top of their lungs "I must have Nutty Chicken Pizza from The Couch Tomato, or I might die!"

I have got to give it up to them also for the pies. My roommates especially will confirm that they have it doing on down there, and nowhere on main street will you find better pizza for sure!

One of our favorite places in the city for salads. The Balsamic dressing is like none other I have ever tried!
