Slice just ran into Nate Appleman, who, as you may know, is set to open Pulino's Bar & Grill with restaurateur Keith McNally. Appleman tells us two things: 1) That he's about three weeks out from opening Pulino's, and, perhaps more important, 2) That he's not doing Neapolitan-style pizza there....Motorino East Village Expands Delivery Zone to Houston Street
Looks like a lot of East Villagers are in luck. Motorino East Village has apparently expanded its delivery zone to stretch to Houston between Third Avenue/The Bowery and Avenue C. And good news for the folks between Irving Place and Union Square East and 14th and 21st streets; you're now in the zone, too. Bad news for folks just below Peter Cooper Road; looks like the delivery zone up there shrank a little. D'oh!

The brussels sprout and pancetta pizza at Motorino. [Photograph: Robyn Lee] I have to reveal something shocking about Girl Slice, the woman I am about to share the rest of my life with: She's not a big pizza-eater. In fact, she pulled a bit of a bait-and-switch on me when we first met. Before we started dating, she told me some story about how she loved the pizza at Joe & Joe in Kensington so much that she ate a whole pie of it one day and then a whole Patsy's pizza the next day. I was like, Whoa....Where to Get Free Pizza with a Beer Purchase in NYC
View Where to Get Free Pizza with Beer Purchase in a larger map The A.V. Club's Max Silvestri pens an ode to the free-pizza-with-a-beer joints in New York City: Cheers to the man or woman—but honestly, most likely a man—who invented pizza bars. They make this city great. (Are they the only thing that makes this city great? No, but they're close.) If you don't know, pizza bars, which is a term I just made up, are bars that give patrons a free pizza with every drink ordered. I know, right? Silvestri only mentions the Alligator Lounge, since he thinks...New No. 28 in East Village to offer all-you-can-eat pizza

EV Grieve has the lowdown: We closed the Pizza Shop because the rent was too high. We struggled every month to make it... someone gave me an offer on the space and i decided it was best to take it.... Former owner Kevin Cole tells EV Grieve he's looking for a new location and urges fans of the place to get in touch via email for notification if and when he reopens. The Pizza Shop is the place that did fun, limited-edition boxes of punk rock icons like The Clash and The Ramones....From Serious Eats Talk: 'Is Motorino Really That Good?'
A Margherita pizza from the East Village Motorino. [Photograph: Philip Given] On Slice parent site Serious Eats, sushiburger says: ... Then we went to Motorino on 12th Street. After hearing all the rave on SE/Slice (for the one in Brooklyn) I decided to try it. We ordered the Margherita. Since we had already eaten a pork bun and half a sandwich, we ordered just one pie (plus, it was like 5 p.m. so no one was there), but the guy working there gave us a weird look and said in the back, "They just want one... no, that's it......Slice is part of the Foodblog Ad Network.
