Shoe’s Pizzeria Ad Read: While we are sipping on some italian wine, you know what is sounding mighty fine? Some Shoe’s Pizzeria. Their pizza, wings and subs are top notch, and pair perfectly with Italian wine.

From the friendly face behind the counter to the man behind the dough, Mr. Shoe, they know what they are doing. Go check them out at 3300 N Calumet Ave in Valparaiso, IN.
