...I had Macaroni and Cheese with Black Truffle Oil once.
...

Now, why on earth would you do that to Black Truffle Oil !?

Every pizza mentioned on here sounds pretty damn fine....except for that bacon & egg one. I thought the locals out here were the only ones demented enough to do that to a pizza

You and me both. Why ruin an otherwise perfectly tasty pizza by putting a noxious fried egg in the middle of it?

That happened to me when some friends & I ordered a pizza for takeout in Paris. We got it back to the flat, opened the lid and found those two f***ing eggs staring up at us like giant diseased eyeballs. I can't remember if I ended up eating junk food from the tabac that night or just went without dinner. I assure you I did not eat that pizza!

Too many good ones to limit to just one.

 

I love the local thin and crispy. Pepperoni and bacon or sausage and onion are my preferred toppings.

 

Gino's East is the best deep dish pizza I've ever had.

 

I really like Rocky Rococco's pan style pizza too, and there's one right by Miller Park biggrin.gif

 

When living in MD, I loved Bertucci's brick oven pizza, haven't found a good brick oven pizza in the Milwaukee area.....

Large cheese, well done. That'll do it. new_thumbsupsmileyanim.gif

 

But if I'm in the mood for a change...white pie with broccoli rabe, or specifically the special (sausage and meatball) at Denino's here on Staten Island, followed up by Ralphs Ices. A summer treat that simply cannot be beat.

 

Oh, and all the rest of you? Pizza, if it ain't from NYC, its crrraaap!

Well, perhaps I wasn't quite as forthcoming as I could have been. We're not really talking about a box of Kraft (which I also like, btw). This dish was served at Charleston's which is a five-star gourmet restaurant featuring low-country food from the mid-Atlantic region.

I have to say when I visited NY in 2004 I had an awesome pizza. I went to John's Brick oven in Greenwich village on Bleaker. It was awesome.

The New-York-pizza-is-the-only-pizza line is a myth.

 

If it ain't from NYC, it's not swimming in a puddle of grease. wink.gif Some of us prefer to not have to ask for a sponge to go with our pizza.

If it's not from Italy it's Crap.

 

The further you go from Italy the worse pizza gets. Trust me.

Let me take you to New Haven where 3 of the best pizza places in the world reside and we will see if you stay with that sentiment.

You won't. atickhum.gif

that's a "grandma pie"

could be, or it could be a sicilian slice. grandma slice is a thinner slice than the sicilian.
