Openings: Artichoke Basille's West Side and New Grimaldi-Helmed Operation
The Eater NY has a couple good pieces of intel today. First, that Artichoke Basille's will open a West Side operation in the old Red Rock West Saloon space on Tenth Avenue and 17th Street. It'll be a sit-down restaurant, which is a little scary, seeing as how the original location on 14th Street near First is notorious for service—and that's take-out only. Second, that Patsy Grimaldi is looking to open a new coal-oven place to be called Juliana's. The Eater item doesn't mention where Grimaldi might open, only that he's looking for a space....Are Artichoke Basille's Sicilian Slices Shrinking?
[Photograph: Kathy YL Chan] Wish I would have caught this earlier, but here you go. From September 15, Kathy YL Chan notices that the Sicilian slices seem to be shrinking at Artichoke Basille's: About a month ago, I started to notice that the slices (I can only vouch for the Sicilian) were smaller with each visit. I guess it's only something you notice if you order the exact same thing at the exact same place multiple times a week. Price remains the same of course. It's scary how quickly change has settled in—hopefully the shrinkage will stop in due...Motorino, Artichoke Basille's Win 'Time Out New York' Eat Out Awards
Motorino's Margherita pizza. Time Out New York held its Eat Out Awards last night, with a couple pizza categories. The magazine's web editors live-blogged it: Best new artisanal pizza: Motorino, "for its Neapolitan pièce de résistance: a charred crust that’s airy yet elastic, sweet tomato sauce, and gooey pools of fior di latte mozzarella." Best new pizza: Artichoke. "Said the Artichoke boys, 'We thought we lost. We want to thank our grandmother and grandfather. We thank our customers for making us No. 1. Pizza is in our hearts and in our veins!'"...'Time Out New York' Taking Votes for Best New Pizzeria
Artichoke, Co., Motorino, and San Marzano are the candidates. Vote here....More Artichoke Craziness, But the Truth Hammer Rests
The velvet bag where the Truth Hammer is kept. Red, naturally. Sometimes the mere threat of overwhelming power is more effective than the indiscriminate use thereof. This holds for the Truth Hammer, as well. Therefore, I'm only glancing in the general direction of this trusty Slice device as I write. The Truth Hammer will remain in its velvet bag as I point out the words of Village Voice guest blogger Haily Eber (my emphasis): The Artichoke Slice at Artichoke Basille's Pizza & Brewery was recently featured in Time Out's "100 Best..things we ate and drank this year" and hailed...Artichoke Basille's Expanding to Five More Locations?
Photograph from JordanaZ, from the Serious Eats Photo Pool on Flickr So sayeth the New York Post. So sayeth Slice: Artichoke's idea of expanding would be making the line twice as long. Artichoke 328 East 14th Street, New York NY 10003 (East Village; map) 212-228-2004...Artichoke Basille's Artichoke Slice a 'New Classic'?
Say wha, Time Out New York? It's hammer time! It's that time of year. The annual year-end round-ups are coming fast and furious. (Don't worry, homeslices, I'm workin' on them myself.) Today, Time Out New York drops its lists. For the most part, they're pretty solid. But I just had to reach in to the ol' Slice Bag o' Tricks and pull out the rusty but trusty Truth Hammer. See that nonsense above? The weekly magazine is naming Artichoke Basille's signature artichoke slice a "new classic." Please. We love the Artichoke regular and square slices, even if they are...Visiting New York City? 7 Must-Eat Pizzas You Should Try
Editor's note: In mid June, Slice reader Lance Roberts emailed me, asking if I'd help him complete his pizza itinerary. He was visiting New York City from Los Angeles, and he wanted to pack in as much pizza as he could—but only the best. I gave him some recs. He came, he ate, and then he wrote. What follows is a wonderful tale of 2.5 days of pizza mania. Buon appetito! —The Mgmt. An N.Y.C. Pizza Tour from an L.A. Perspective As a Los Angeleno who grew up in Detroit, it's a little odd that I love pizza so...Dear Slice: 'The Curious Tale of Artichoke Continues'
Clicking in to the Slice inbox tonight, we've got a field report from Nick "Beef Aficionado" Solares: The curious tale of Artichoke continues. I walked by today around 12:30 p.m., shutter was up, there was a guy inside, but they were closed—no pizza anywhere in sight. Walked back at 5:30 p.m. and one of those cute little paper-plate signs was posted saying that they would open "for dinner." Walked by again at 9 p.m. and the shutter was down completely. Here's a photo (from my pocketpc/phone, hence the poor quality). Cheers, Nick...Slice is part of the Foodblog Ad Network.
