- The best PIZZA in Canarsie -- Michael Fraggetta, 20:05:39 02/02/04 Mon
If you go back to the late 40's and early 50's the best PIZZA in town was Del Dios on Ave L between 96th St & R.P. On Sat night a large pie with 2 toppings was 1.50 and a large bottle of soda was FREE. When I returned years ago I went there to have lunch only to find it gone. I felt like crying. I have not had a pizza as good since that last one at Del Dios. Zap me back if you remember.

Remember the good old days. I lived on Foster and Remsen Avenue.

- Canarsie Movies -- Art Finkel, 20:25:32 09/12/03 Fri
I remember spending many Saturdays in the Canarsie movie theater during the mid-50's to the early 60's, watching 2 movies and 15 cartoons. The cost was 25 cents and we spent many hours having a great time. When we got a little too noisy, the "mean" matron with the flashlight would come over and threaten to throw us out if we didn't behave. In those days you listened to adults, so we behaved. I remember the colored tickets that were handed out either at the theater or at P.S. 115 for an upcoming Saturday special drawing. If you had the right color ticket, your number was entered into a drum and you could win a prize. I recall one drawing was for a bicycle.
