The Dominator
Speaking of Dom DeMarco, the Financial Times profile on Slice's favorite pizzaiolo reminds me of the nickname for him that we sometimes throw down around Slice HQ: The Dominator. Said nickname inspired this (admittedly) extremely crappy Photoshop job of a Dom-Terminator mashup. This is officially THE DUMBEST thing we have ever posted on Slice....DiFara: Blissfully Inefficient
He is an old man. His work has not been kind to his body and he shows his 69 years. He has been going home with flour on his shoes for nearly half a century. He does not run a restaurant - he makes pizza because he loves it. Pizza with passion baked in [Financial Times]...Di Fara Pizza May Scale Back to 6 Days a Week
"I'll be back." So uttered The Dominator last week, albeit through the words of his family. And back he is, so reports the New York Daily News. While that's all well and good, we think the News buried the real lede toward the end of the story (emphasis added): [Dom] DeMarco won't get his stitches out for another few days, but he is eager to get back to his 12-hour days making his famed pizza — with its signature sauce of fresh and canned tomatoes, homegrown herbs and imported cheeses. His doctor is pushing him to take it easy, and...Di Fara Pizza Reopening This Weekend
Dom DeMarco From Flickr member Slice. Slice just got word—via a comment from Dom's daughter, Maggie—that Di Fara is scheduled to reopen sometime this weekend: "Hi! I am Maggie, Dom's daughter. He is getting out of the hospital today (Wednesday, April 5). We may be open on Friday night or Saturday morning. He had minor surgery on his foot, so I can imagine that the first couple of days we open it will take time to adjust and waits may be longer. I have set up a voicemail that will be turned on Thursday morning which will let you...Di Fara Pizza Closed Temporarily
Word has it that Di Fara is closed temporarily. Something's wrong with Dom's foot, according to Eater....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,...Fishing for Clues
Photograph by y_katsuuu Peter Kaminsky goes kayak fishing in Jamaica Bay and ends the day not with a meal of freshly filleted striper but with a sublime slice. Three guesses as to which pizzeria he's talking about: As we moved across the bay, the sun shone on the far shore. Riders on horseback from the nearby Jamaica Bay Riding Academy moved along the sandy edge of the bay. Cars whooshed along the Belt Parkway. Flocks of geese descended to their evening quarters. "Want to try a slice of the best pizza in the city?" [Sebago Canoe Club chairman Andy]...Book Report: 'Everybody Loves Pizza'
With a cover reminiscent of a retro pizza box and contents almost as tasty as the real thing, Everybody Loves Pizza, by Penny Pollack and Jeff Ruby, has earned a place on the Slice Bookshelf. Full disclosure: I know one of the authors. Mr. Ruby and I were in the same journalism program at university. Still, that didn't stop me from turning a critical eye on this book. In fact, my initial reaction when hearing about it was, "Oy! Another pizza book!? What more can be said?" Fortunately, Penny and Jeff find plenty new to say, particularly with some interesting...'Newsday' on Una Pizza Napoletana
One of Slice's favorite local food writers, Josh Ozersky, checks in with a story on Anthony Mangieri of über-traditional pizzeria Una Pizza Napoletana. Ozersky likens Mr. Mangieri to a young Dom DeMarco, oh he of Di Fara fame. In his way, this young guy with tattoos covering both arms is a soul brother to the city's greatest and most single-minded pizza maker, Dominic DeMarco of Di Fara pizza in Brooklyn. Neither man seems to have any interest in the world beyond the loving, lingering task of making perfect pizzas one at a time. Mr. Ozersky describes a UPN pie: "Pliable...Slice is part of the Foodblog Ad Network. To advertise on this site or across a network of food-related weblogs, click here.
