'He Changed Our Lives:' How Portnoy Turned Things Around For Bucks Family After Worst Year Ever
The last year of the Rosenthal family's lives has been their worst ever. The Dublin family had just purchased Peppino's Tomato Pies on West Butler Avenue in Chalfont in the summer of 2022, when they became victims of an egregious crime leaving them all — including the elementary school-aged children — traumatized.

'Michael Jordan Of Pizza?' Portnoy's The Judge At Another Bucks County Pizzeria
Barstool Sports CEO Dave Portnoy has been in Bucks County taking bites out of pies this week. The latest stop on this leg of the One Bite tour is Russo's in New Hope. The restaurant, owned by a Trenton/Robbinsville area native, specializes in the tomato pie. What's Portnoy have to say? 7.5. The CEO's chief complaint was that the pie was too big, making it difficult to keep the crunch. But the Russo's t-shirt that reads, "The Michael Jordan of Pizza?" "That's a 10.9 t-shirt," Portnoy says. Russo's is located at 41 N Main St., in New Hope.

Let's get one thing straight: It's not New Haven-style pizza. At least that's what Barstool Sports CEO Dave Portnoy said about HG Bucks Bagels in Warminster, where he stopped for a One Bite pizza review last week. The bagel shop markets itself as having the CT-style pies: "It's a weird scene in there," Portnoy said before biting into a slice, and then taking more than one. "It's good pizza but don't insult me and don't insult New Haven," Portnoy said. "Having said all that, it's pretty good." Portnoy's rating at HG Bucks? 7.7 — with a .2 deduction for saying it's a New Haven-style pizza w…
