If you're looking for some good pizza, Patxi's is definitely a place to try.
A welcoming atmosphere is the first thing you'll notice about the place.
Their great tasting food will delight your palate, fresh ingredients and hand crafted pizza are never a bad thing.
Gluten free crust and vegan options mean that everyone can come and enjoy their food.
One of their fourteen inch pizzas will feed three adults, so filling up won't be a problem.
Unfortunately, they are not a cheap place with an appetizer being around ten dollars and pizzas averaging twenty dollars for a ten inch or thirty for a fourteen inch.
But you can feel good about eating there, as three days of every week of the
year they are giving ten percent of their sales to a local organization
or charity.
Look for a Patxi's nearby, if you live in the Denver area or around San Fransisco.

Egyptian Military Gives Politicians 48 Hours
Tahrir Square is once again filled with protesters promising not to leave until there is a regime change.
Across the country, more than three million people are protesting against the President.
Sixteen people died in clashes between Morsi's supporters and opponents.
Five of those deaths came when protesters attacked the Muslim Brotherhood headquarters, in Cairo.
Opposition members gave Morsi, until 17:00 Cairo time on Tuesday, or 09:00 MDT, to resign from office, or be forcibly removed.
After the announcement the majority of the police abandoned the government, and joined the protesters.
Then, on Monday evening, the military gave political leaders on both sides forty-eight hours to come to terms.
If they can not, the military will declare the country's path.
Until now, the military has mostly stayed out of matters, only asking both sides to keep it peaceful.
A military coup is now not out of the question, though it seems more likely that they will put in place a council until a new election could be had.
