Dear Slice: Really Disappointed

Posted by Adam Kuban, July 29, 2008 at 11:30 AM

Clicking in to the Slice inbox today, we've got ...

I am really disappointed that you haven’t done a review of Amore Pizza in Flushing, Queens. It is in the Pathmark shopping center on Linden Place and the Whitestone Expressway. I have been going there for years and can't believe that you haven’t been there yet. Give it a shot. It is worth the trip.

Thank you,
Mike

Dear Mike,
Hey! I know a Mike who lives near Flushing. Is this who I think it is? Anyway, yeah, I don't have much in the way of deep Queens on Slice. You're right to be disappointed. I did some quick Googsearch, and it looks like the almighty Chowhounders have your back on this one. I'm out near Flushing way every now and again. Next time, I'll stop in. Thanks for the intel and the tip, Mike!

Oh, and for the rest of y'all, here's what Amore looks like.

Hasta la pizza,
Adam

I'm with you, Mike. Amore is actually a descendant of the legendary Gloria's Pizza in Flushing. I went there a couple of years ago right after A Slice of Heaven was published. They make a fine minimalist slice.

Thanks for piling on, Ed. Why don't *you* write a review of Amore, then?

It doesn't have the looks. It's one of those pizzas that probably will score high on a blind taste test.
