Over on Frontburner, Jason Heid waxes nostalgic on The Tomato, a Denton “eatery much-loved by UNT alumni and originally forced to close to make way for a CVS.” Jason is so happy. The restaurant is reopening in Sanger.

It’s not “The Tomato Pizza,” it’s “The Tomato” (look on his post for an important comma. The actual name is “The Flying Tomato” but everyone in Denton just called it “The Tomato.”

“The Flying Tomato” is a chain. When Ski and Becky bought it it became just “The Tomato”. “The Flying Tomato” stayed on the boxes and tickets though… I always assumed because it was easier.
