'Miami Herald' South Florida Gourmet Pizza Guide
If you thought South Florida was immune to the pizza craze sweeping the nation, you were wrong. (Of course, if you've been paying attention to the Slice Coal-Oven Pizza Map, you'd see that the Sunshine State is now leading the U.S. in number of coal-fired pizzerias.) The Miami Herald checks in with a great guide to "gourmet" pizza around the Miami-Dade area. And it seems like Bertoni Brick Oven Pizza could only exist in Florida: "The quirky Argentine-owned pizzeria attached to a carwash looks more like a South Beach club with its stunning mosaic murals, sleek furnishings and mood music."...Coal-Oven Alert: Fired Up, Palm Bay, Florida

If you attended my Year in Pizza talk in early January, you know that 2008 saw a surge in the number of pizzerias using coal-fired ovens in the U.S. Since November 2007, Slice has kept a map of coal-oven pizzerias in the U.S., and in that time we've added countless new coalers. Not only has the rapidly increasing number of new coal pizzerias surprised us but where they're located has been interesting as well.

Firstcoastnews.com: "Joseph Milano, the owner of Goomba's Pizzeria, has been charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and released on bail." The customer wanted a refund for a botched calzone. I think the name of the pizzeria says it all here. [via James S.]...Pizza Used in Self-Defense
"A Florida pizza delivery man who was challenged by armed robbers in the city of Miramar got in first with his own weapon—a large pepperoni pizza.

I've been workin' in the coal mine, digging up some more coal-oven pizzerias to bring you.

More Times collateral. This time, a question from a new reader in Miami: Hi there Adam: Learned about you from the nytimes.com article on Totonno’s vs. Domino's. I moved here to Miami two years ago, and as a third-generation Manhattanite, I must tell you that I really miss good pizza. I loved Totonno’s, but since I lived in Greenwich Village for the past 15 years, I really loved a slice from Joe’s off of Sixth Avenue near Cornelia Street as well as the pizzeria on University Place near 13th Street (my old neighborhood). Those were my weekly haunts. The reason...'Times' Readers Recommend ...
Here are some tips that New York Times readers are sending in: Next time you're planning a trip to Connecticut, don't miss a great pie (no slices) at Roseland in Derby.

[Roseland Apizza: 350 Hawthorne Ave., Derby CT 06418; map] Came across your site in the Times today. I know Mount Vernon is not New York City, but I saw reviews of Jersey pizzerias.
