Openings: Williamsburg's Vinnie's to Drop Second Location in Greenpoint
[Photograph: Adam Kuban] Vinnie's Pizzeria, on Bedford Avenue in Williamsburg. Known for its vegan and vegetarian options as well as for its more outré slices (mac-and-cheese slice; breakfast slice, described on sandwich board above). And for its T.hanks trash can. Word is they're opening a second location just a bit north in Greenpoint. At Nassau and Kingsland. No date yet. [via Pizza Rules!]...Openings: Paulie Gee's, Greenpoint, Brooklyn
This has been in the works for some time, but it's now official: Paulie Gee (aka Paul Gianonne) has signed the lease on the former Paloma space at 60 Greenpoint Avenue in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, and is hoping to open Paulie Gee's by December. Anyone familiar with the Paulie Gee mythos won't find it surprising that his place will be a wood-fired Neapolitan-style joint. The oven is being built in Naples now and will be shipped over soon. Gianonne says he'll be the sole pizzaman at Paulie Gee's but will have an assistant trained and ready to step in at...Roberta's the 'Best Naples-Style Pizza'? Really, Village Voice?
[Photograph: Robyn Lee] The Village Voice has named Roberta's in Bushwick 2009's Best Naples-Style Pizza. Look, I'm going to say it: Roberta's makes inventive pizza. Roberta's makes great nonpizza food—amazing nonpizza food, even. Roberta's laid-back atmosphere makes you feel at home. But Roberta's does not make the best Naples-style pizza in the city....Pizza Deal: $5 Margherita Pizzas at Williamsburg's Fornino
From an email from Fornino's Michael Ayoub: "Slice is not the only one with an anniversary. Fornino is celebrating its fifth anniversary on October 20... I am offering $5 Margherita pies for five days, beginning October 19. Available for lunch and dinner, in the restaurant and for pick-up." 187 Bedford Avenue, Brooklyn NY 11211 (at North 7th Street; map); 718-384-6004; forninopizza.com...That's Amore: Hot Times on Bedford Avenue
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.

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...Dear Slice: Vertuccio's Pizza on the Park
Clicking in to the Slice inbox, some intel from FoS Rachel W. about Vertuccio's, that new brick-oven place on North 12th Street (facing McCarren Park) in Williamsburg. —The Mgmt. The most striking feature of the place is its oven. It's a huge gargantuan machine in the center of the room. The pizza itself was pretty good. Sauce and cheese were great, but we thought the flavor in the crust left something to be desired.Mine was topped with sopressata, which was damn tasty—better than Motorino's. However, Motorino, as a whole, is still much better.The owner(?) also comped us a slice of...Openings: Vertuccio's, a New Brick-Oven Pizzeria in Williamsburg
@SkeeterNYC: "PHOTO: Noticed a NEW brick oven pizza joint bordering McCarren Park in The Burg, N12th Street: Vertuccio's (http://www.twitpic.com/huyan)" Vertuccio's Pizza on the Park 232 North 12th Street, Brooklyn NY 11211 (b/n Driggs/Roebling; map)...My Pizza Oven: Mark Wilkie, Windsor Terrace, Brooklyn
When I put out a call for people to be featured in the My Pizza Oven series, I never thought I'd get a response from someone who lived a mile away from me in Brooklyn. I mean, it's New York City—not that many people have their own yards here, and of those who do, how many are crazy* enough to put in a backyard pizza oven? Nice to see an oven grow here. —The Mgmt. Mark Wilkie's oven—just finished over the weekend. [Photographs: Mark Wilkie] You put a pizza oven in the garden of your Brooklyn home. First question, then:...Goin' Mobile: In Which I Finally Get My Ass Out to Pizza Moto at the Brooklyn Flea
Clockwise from top left: Dave Sclarow builds the pies at a hectic pace before passing them to Pizza Moto's stickwoman. The menu lists Margherita and white pies, with the option to top either with pepperoni. My Margherita pie, fresh from the oven; I brought it into nearby Empire–Fulton Ferry Park to wolf it down at the tree-shaded picnic tables there.
