Vennari's to close?

There is a rumor flying around that Vennari's Pizza in Oakland Mills is closing up shop as of July 31 when the lease expires. If true, that royally sucks. Their pizza is straight up awesome.

Vennari's Pizza has been in that village as far back as the days when it was enclosed. I always felt Dave Vennari made one of the best pies I've ever had.

Rumor now is that new owners have signed a new lease. I'll miss the current owners. They were cool. I hope the recipe stays the same...

As I was picking up what I feared may be my last pizza, I asked the gentleman at Vennari's if they were staying in business. He said that they signed a new lease. I didn't press him for further details because it's none of my business. But that is great news. Same great pizza, same great owners.

Btw, WB, if you had a pizza made by one of the actual Vennari's, you are an old dog :-). I think they have been out of the mix for 20 years or so.
