Why does LaRosa s put some toppings under the cheese, and some toppings on top?
It was Buddy s Aunt Dena s recipe that first specified that the ingredients go under the cheese, and it s become a LaRosa s tradition. Some toppings, like spinach or tomato, need to go on top because they have a lot of water in them, and it needs to bake out. Other meat items, like bacon, taste better when they bake on top and get nice and crispy.
