My friend's favorite pizza place closed down. He got his last two pieces encased in resin to keep forever.

I used to live in St Paul, I will miss that place!

Would you not just freeze a few slices and reheat them on your deathbed or something?

Two seems weird to me. Why not just the very last one? It's like "here it is, the last pizza slice...oh, and also this other one."

Probably did two just in case the encasing in resin failed on one.

For whatever reason, small "mom and pop" pizza stores always seem to close down. It's sad really, usually they make much better pizza

There are several Savoys franchised, it's not really gone. Also that reason is the original owner died.

9 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

I've found, the original 7th st location had something special about it. Different franchises have different levels of quality.

Fun fact, the only thing that is the same between the original and all the others, is the sauce and the boxes. Sauce: I know things

The one on Vadnais Heights is pretty comparable.

Except for the numerous other locations. The original just closed because they couldn't be bothered to adhere to 29+ ADA laws.

$600,000 In renovations is hardly "Couldn't be bothered".

If it's done professionally with stabilizers/moisture replacement agents in the casting process, then no. Otherwise, yes.
