That's Amore: Hot Times on Bedford Avenue

Posted by Adam Kuban, October 1, 2009 at 8:00 AM

Because even grease-stained wretches need love, too, Slice wades waist-deep into the plaintive muck of Craigslist's Missed Connections in search of pizza-related longing. Such is the swamp of love that spawns That's Amore. —The Mgmt.

you said I was beautiful..anna marias pizza - w4m - 22 (bedford ave): "This was on a Thursday night maybe 3 weeks ago, at anna marias on bedford across from the charleston. We sat down at the same time, and both made awkward glances at eachother the whole time. As you got up to leave you came over to me and said I was beautiful. I feel lame, but yeah it was so sweet..just wanted to see if I could possibly find you."

Ana Maria Pizza man - m4m - 29 (Williamsburg): "Dear Ana Maria Pizza Man,
I've had a crush on you for five years. I can deal with your long hours, and always coming home smelling like pizza. I won't even mind if you flirt with your customers and insist on wearing Ed Hardy clothing. Those are all things I can deal with.

"With Passion,
Your Crush"

lasso's pizza last night. - w4m (SoHo): "the friends i was with thought i should post. on your way out, you waved. i smiled."

Artichoke Pizza - m4w (East Village): "The conversation started so organically that I didnt want to taint the experience by asking for your contact. I was part of the odd couple - we ate Artichoke pie on the bench around 8. i guess i'm tainting the organic now....but i've never miss connected before! email me - we'll go out - without my friend, 'the suit'"
