A210 They laughed when I pulled into a locally owned restaurant for dinner... But they were speechless after their first bite. Sometimes you don't know what's in your own back yard. Most New Yorkers have never been to the Statue of Liberty. Many Philadelphians have not seen the Liberty Bell. It's not uncommon for locals to forget about local places. Sometimes we go to familiar national chains because that's where everybody else goes. But it's not necessarily the best place to eat. The best Italian food around is at The Dough Company. Great pizza with homemade dough and a special secret sauce. Great pastas with great homemade sauces. And what's better this time of year than The Dough Company's homemade chicken soup? You'll get great food. Great service. And great value. See what these out-of- towners have to say about us: "We stop here every year on our way up to Maine"-Brooke Smith, Columbia, SC "Please open a restaurant in Lancaster County." We come all the way up here just to bring your great sauce and meatballs home with us."- Kay Davis, Little Britain, PA : "Sauce is excellent" - Jean Manell, Pelham, NH "The service was great" - Jen Mahovitch, Harrisburg, PA "The pizza crust is the best I've ever eaten" - Kate Plechavy, Palmerton, PA "We come from Harrisburg to eat at The Dough Company" - Carl Wagner, Harrisburg, PA "Qur server was outstanding, Pizza is excellent" - Sean Boyer, Atlanta, GA STOP IN TODAY!!
