TODAY’S LUNCH: HAM CALZONE FROM PAPA PERRONE’S TRUCK

Papa Perrone's has been on 55th St between Park & Madison Ave for quite some time.  In fact, when Eddie's Pizza Truck parked on that block last week because their usual spot was not available, it almost got ugly.  Luckily, Eddie's realized they made a mistake and tried to make nice.  I doubt Eddie's will park on that block...
