Pizza can also be purchased in grocery stores or supermarkets (usually but not always frozen); in many countries, pizza can also be ordered by phone (or, increasingly, via the Web) to be delivered, hot and ready to eat, to almost any address within range of the restaurant.
The pizza was very patriotic in its evocation of the Italian flag with its colors of green (basil leaves), white (mozzarella), and red (tomatoes), and was named Pizza Margherita in honor of the Queen.
Pizza may be baked with a thin bread bottom (Italian or "hand-tossed" style) or with thicker bread (pan pizza).

 ‘Mystic Pizza’ (R)
"Mystic Pizza," the new film about the friendship among three young women working in a Mystic, Conn., pizza parlor, has an abundance of heart, but it's to the detriment of other vital organs.
All three women appear to be in their late teens, at a point in life where important decisions are being made.
Watching the film, you get the general sense that the actors -- particularly Annabeth Gish and, though he is hardly featured, D'Onofrio (who was last seen as the troubled recruit in "Full Metal Jacket") -- are better than their material, but this is scant compensation.

 The DVD Journal | Quick Reviews: Mystic Pizza
This 1988 romantic dramedy (directed by Grumpy Old Men and Miss Congeniality helmer Donald Petrie) wasn't quite her breakout role — she had to wait until 1989's Steel Magnolias and, of course, 1990's Pretty Woman for that — but it's proof that this Georgia peach was definitely on her way up.
The story of one summer in the life of Daisy, Kat, and Jojo — three lifelong friends dealing with love while they sling pizza in the seaside town of Mystic, Connecticut —; is sweet and poignant, a thoughtful look at the perils and joys of falling in love.
All three girls are perfectly cast: Annabeth Gish is both innocent and reckless as Yale-bound Kat, Roberts struts her stuff as Kat's flirty-yet-fragile older sister Daisy, and the always-excellent Lili Taylor provides the lion's share of the humor as commitment-phobic Jojo.
