Last week’s mystery, “Classical statues,” showed a pair of classical figures framing the door of the Original House of Pizza on Calhoun Drive in Orangeburg. Thanks to Columbia’s Elizabeth Jones for the photo.
And congratulations to these readers who knew where the picture was (or who figured it out, mostly because of the orange newspaper box): Will Bradley of Las Vegas, Nevada; Allan Peel of San Antonio, Texas; Don Clark of Hartsville; David Lupo of Mount Pleasant; Henry Eldridge of Tega Cay; Kevin Mertens of Greenville; George Graf of Palmyra, Va.; Faith Line of Anderson; Frank Bouknight of Summerville; and Jay Altman of Columbia.
Peel shared: “This restaurant offers both Italian and Greek items on its menu, which explains, in part, the reason for the Greek artifacts and sculptures that adorn the entrance to the establishment. It is a family-owned and -operated no-frills restaurant that offers dine-in, take-out, and delivery, and catering services. … The original restaurant employed 20 employees and could seat up to 55 patrons. Today it employs 40 people and has been expanded to seat up to 130 diners.”
