The Gift That Keeps Giving

If it’s a year ending in a number, Checkerboard Pizza on the East Side of Saint Paul is back in the news for less than uttelry savory reasons.

And as a Midway homer, it behooves me to point out that, name and signage similarities notwithstanding, the ongoing reality show that is the East Side Checkboard is utterly unrelated to the one on Snelling for the past couple of decades. While delivery pizza hasn’t been much of a part of my life for some time now, Midway Checkerboard is great stuff.
