What’s the best slice of pizza you had? Where was it from? What made it flavortown?
It was a dollar slice I had while hammered in soho. The place just had a yellow sign that said "Pizza". It was so good I bought an entire pie and ate it with a bunch of punk kids on the steps outside of Search and Destroy.
>>22055676For a classic slices, it's a three-way tie between Joe's (Village location), NY Pizza Suprema (Midtown), and Patsy's (East Harlem). Plain cheese. When your ingredients and prep are fantastic, that's all you need.Runners up include Scarr's (LES), Mimi's (UES), and Sal & Carmine's (UWS). For a thick Sicilian slab, it's L&B or DiFara, both over in Brooklyn. The original DiFara is still great despite a bunch of idiots hating on it just because some staff has changed.
>>22055676It was from a place out in connectigut called h&m grinder. This is the only place that makes pizza as thick as chicago style that is somehow not undercooked or burnt. Fuckers come like 3 inches thick with all the cheese and toppings and is perfectly cooked. A medium will feed a family of 10. Nice place. They had a mortal kombat arcade that didnt require money to play.
>>22055687Search and Destroy is East Village, not SoHo lol. Sounds like you were on St Marks and it might have been 2 Bros before they got all branding-heavy
>>22055715I remember that spot, kinda amazed to see it's still going since a lot of other old grinder shops have closed. Their grinders were good but their pizza always looked not great to me
>>22055717Nah the pizza place was in SoHo. Me and my friends just walked to St Marks after getting the pizza and shared the rest of it with those kids. And I'd never be able to guess what business it was. I was just visiting NY for two weeks.
best slice of pizza was just dough I fermented in the fridge for a day with some tomatos from my garden smashed into a basic sauce with just salt
>>22055676Not sure about best single slice but I’ve always had a soft spot for the Godfather’s taco pizza
>>22055676Giovanni's in AlbequerqueSecond place would be Gino's in Itaewon district in Seoul, South Korea.
>>22055676Local place.I won't say which one.Lots of high quality cheese.
>>22055687>hey anons I'm cool right?? Right??? Only cool guys drink and eat pizza on the street with punk rock kids!!!
>>22056714It does sound pretty cool to be in the Big Apple and eat pizza on the street with dirty NYC punks
>>22056736Punk died when GG died.
>>22056736Anon here. It was very cool as a 20 year old that had never been to a big city.
wherever this guy goes, I avoid. My strategy has yet to let me down.
>>22056856He gave a place near me a basic bitch rating
>>22056876he only eats basic cheese pizza, always burned. His tastes I seriously doubt are refined enough to be trusted, he's not exactly a guy fieri or even bourdain of pizza , not sure why he gets so much clout. Power to him I guess but not my thing
>>22056890this guy is 100 times more based than Dave in his own videohttps://youtu.be/NoD3gE89WLg?t=116
>>22056876>He gave a place near me a basic bitch rating>>22056902>dave gives this one a basic bitch>meets guy who eats dominos 24/7 Anon, is that you?
>>22055676made a clone of this pizza (never had the real thing)
>>22056927no lol but that place is near me
>>22056944Janoy Cresva's looking sharp, I hope he's doing well
>>22056951Wanna chill at the Ritas near Mcdonalds?
>>22056890He likes the classic NYC/east coast Italian American style pizza which is of course the best kind of American pizza. If you like that kind of pizza then his reviewing is good. If you don't like that style of pizza or think plain cheese is too boring then you won't like his reviews. He definitely has great taste when it comes to the style of pizza he likes.
>>22056929Have one in town that used to have this red potato pizza with a sour cream drizzle that was amazing, so sad they took it off the menu.
>>22056876He dogged on St Louis pizza because his gay sports team lost to ours.
>>22057108Was it St Louis style?
>>22056929Oh wow I havent seen that name in a long time. We used to frequent one in town before I moved. Good pizza. They had anthropomorphic mushroom statues decorating the ceiling overhang area. I sent a spitball between the tits of the one in the yellow dress. Went back 5ish years later and it was still there.
I love a good Buffalo chicken pizza
place called pestinos, cut their pizzas in the square shape. of course the dough was incredible, ate the circumfrence handles first before gorging on the part with sauce, cheese, and toppings.only ever had their Buffalo Chicken, very nice grilled chicken, a strong buffalo sauce underneath the mix of mozzarella and smoked provolonethey closed over 15 years ago I think, can't find any google results of even the building
>>22056714when you're in new york, you eat pizza with everybody
>>22055676NYC pizza Scarr's. Hot, with Jalapeños, not overcooked and very tasty pep. Sauce wasn't sweet not overdrenched.
>>22055676Snuff get the hell out of here.
>>22058598I like to eat
>>22056761Yeah Stiv Bators and Johnny Thunders also died around the same time. I wish GG did some more talk shows before he OD'd. His brother and Dino are still recording and touring with the Murder Junkies but their new stuff is terrible.
>>22055676Happy Joe's, locations around Iowa and some other parts of the Midwest. They finely dice their Canadian bacon in a way I haven't seen elsewhere, and although their sausage looks weird, it's good. Their cheese includes cheddar as part of some proprietary blend. Sweet sauce. Crust that's crispy on the bottom but chewy on top.It's the same as it was since I was a kid and I'll never not love it.
>>22056761Punk went from an idea to a genre to a concept to a religion and that's the real problem. It's like a little over 30 years ago non-Hardcore Punk split into an orthodox DIY form of punk centered around bands like Bikini Kill and NOFX and a Big Label Pop Punk centered around Green Day and Blink 182. From there you had a Hegelian dialectic for a few decades and now you have Green Day Coffee and a form of punk that views punk as a word that inherently means low-budget DIY safe spaces, coke bars and strong socialist/anarchist ethos.Like the Ramones were a bunch of self-promoting T-Shirt shills from the start. The Clash leaned heavily into production values on pretty much every album Give 'em Enough Rope onwards. DEVO and Blondie were some of the first acts to get their success off of their presence on MTV.The Sex Pistols lasted for about 5 minutes and after that John Lydon made the most mainstream New Wave Synth Rock out there.
DeNinos, just around Christmas a couple years ago. Whole family was together for the first time in a long time, my parents had just moved back east and we were headed to a jazz show afterwards at the Blue Note. It's that mix of a good moment and good food. There have been good slices that I didn't enjoy as much cause I was doing it alone, after work on a lonely night and sure the slice was probably theoretically better, it lacked the intimacy.
>>22059355I've always wanted to try the original Staten Island location but it's just such a pain in the ass to get to
>>22055676Simone Padoan, I Tigli, San Bonifacio near Verona.>What made it flavortown?Pigeon, lobster, glazed eel, castraure (raw artichokes from the Venetian lagoon). Never had anything before or since.
>>22055717Imagine being able to buy a pizza in one location and taking said pizza to another. The fucking wizardry
