Who Has The Best Tomato Pies in Philadelphia?
Philadelphia, PA—Tomato pies in Philadelphia were sold by the now-closed "Iannelli's Bakery" as early as 1910. Like Sicilian pizza, tomato pie is often oven-baked in rectangular pans and served in square slices. It first appeared in a 1903 article published by the New York Tribune on Italian-American foods, describing an earlier variation of today's tomato pie.
