Slice
That's Amore: Di Fara, Lombardi's
It's been a while since Slice has put on the ol' waders and panned through the muck that is Craigslist's Missed Connections. But we're glad we did. We struck gold in this edition of That's Amore. It features legendary pizzerias Di Fara and Lombardi's. XOXO, Ed.
DiFrara Pizza , Friday NIght - m4w - 30 : you were that beautiful lady that order a pie for you and your friend. I was seatting next to you with my sister. wanted to say hi, but did not. wish i did. i guess is too late now. —peace Slice wishes you did, too. Could there be a better meet-cute story than hooking up at Di Fara? Wait, don't answer that.
Lombardi's Pizza Last Night - m4w - 25 :I noticed you at dinner while you were eating next to me and my friend. and then, when you almost knocked over our pizza and flashed a smile in embarrassment, I was too speechless to say a thing...wish i would have gotten your number... No loss here. You're better off without this clutz.
Avoiding Eye Contact - m4w - 24 : You were sitting and eating a slice of pizza and maybe garlic knots. I sat down and ate a slice across from you. Then I got up and got a soda and sat down and drank it. We made eye contact maybe twice. It was hard for me not to stare. I had just gotten up from a nap and so it seemed a little like a dream. I think you wanted to talk to me too. Email to confirm. (this is in or around Famiglia Pizza on 8th St and Broadway) Next! Her breath be all stanky from the garlic knots, yo.
We Spoke in Ben's Pizza Tuesday - m4m : We spoke in Ben's Pizza today Tuesday 2/7/06 around 5PM. You very handsome, wore an orange T-shirt. Me s&p hair, wore a Tan turtle neck shirt. I kept looking at you. When I smiled and you asked if this was Macdougal St. And I said it was. We never got to talk further because your friend came in. I really would like to make a connection with you. Hope you see this and respond. Uh, what is "s&p hair"?
beautiful blonde waitress - Rosa's Pizza- Fresh Pond Rd - m4w - 26 : Tonight I went into Rosa's Pizzeria on Fresh Pond Rd. near Metropolitian Avenue, for the first time in years and I saw the most beautiful woman I've ever laid eyes on. The waitress..... She was tall, slim, and had the brightest smile, prittiest eyes, and cutest little voice. If anyone knows her...tell her to chech this out. I'd love to talk to her again. Just a bit shy......I now live in Long Island..a little far for a slice, but she's definately worth the trip!! Maybe you can get her to quote-unquote deliver.
girl at Old Bridge Deli 373 Lexington Ave | At 41st St - 23 : So you only caught your eyes for a second at the cafe but I can't get that glance out of my head. Sure, I'm an attractive guy and catch glances all the time but wow, there was something great about you. I was that dude who was sitting with two friends having pizza. I left with my friends after lunch and walked for about a block before realizing that I really wanted to meet you. I walked back in the deli and I almost walked into you walking down the stairs. But, I didn't quite know what to say or how to say it, so, I continued walking. I went to the restroom and came back having worked up my courage. But by then you had walked out of the store. I looked around and walked all the four blocks looking for a glance of you. Alas, I regret few things but not saying "hi" has got to be one of them. Anyone know this girl? I don't think people ever have second chances but if you know an Asian girl dressed casually in jeans reading the Post who was in midtown and ate at Old Bridge Deli 373 Lexington Ave at 41st St today around 1:10-1:30, let her know that she wowed someone today and to write back. Real specific description there. ... "If you know a white dude in a suit in the Financial District reading the Journal ... "
