RPM Pizza is closed, Pizza Professionals is more expensive

[Edit, March 5, 2018: It's re-open!]

The best pizza in Pioneer Square is no more. Open for just a few days short of five months, RPM Pizza and Records (link dead on PC, live on mobile) has a sign in the window, "closed until further notice." The guy behind the counter is less optimistic: "We're closed forever." Their Instagram/Facebook post is equally pessimistic, calling out December 3 as their last day:


So, craving pizza, I wandered back to second best, Pizza Professionals. "Sorry, no more specials," said the woman behind the counter when I asked about the blank space on the chalkboard. A year ago, two slices and a Pepsi ran me $8.69. Today, right around $12. Yowch.

(Update: On February 6, I noticed a sign in the window saying that RPM was planning on rising from the dead, like Jimi Hendrix, sometime in February. Hopefully, it's more than just optimism. Good luck, pizza rockers.)
