I don't mean to tout the charms of a joint sans cool air in the beastly days of an Austin summer, but it did lend the place a built-in neighborhoody feel. I might have resisted the fare if they hadn't been handing out free slices to the passersby. Well, if lousy pizza is tolerable, lousy free pizza is downright welcome. It's Liberty Pie, brought to you by Louis Lambert, the boy wonder behind Jo's on South Congress. It's become an almost weekly destination for us, and judging by the constant stream of foot traffic, it's a hit with folks who appreciate the difference between tolerable and terrific.
Real cheese is just the half of it.
Sumptuous sauces, lovingly attended dough, and fabulous toppings will take the Yankees in our midst back to the parlors of old haunts. Make it an all-pie affair and try the dessert offerings. All prepared with the care and expertise fans of Lambert's and Jo's have come to expect. Liberty Pie doesn't usually meet the 30-minute deadline of the delivery boys. In fact, they don't deliver at all.
