From the New York Post's Page Six: Steve Grillo has transformed himself from Howard Stern's onetime sidekick to pizza poo bah, opening Hell's Kitchen Pizza at 47th Street and Tenth Avenue with partner Russ Brunelli. Their "Hellfire" pie features sausage, cherry peppers, and pepperoni. Grillo said he'd invite Stern, "but he doesn't eat pizza." Howard Stern doesn't eat pizza? Asshat....Dear Slice: Pizza Variations from the Middle East and the South of France
Clicking in to the Slice inbox today, we've got some quick tips from Mark H. (aka famdoc). In the past week, I've had the opportunity to enjoy two fine variations on the concept of pizza. At Nizza, in the Theater District, I enjoyed a fine version of socca, a snack found commonly around the city of Nice in the South of France (also known as farinata in the region around Genoa in Italy), made with chickpea flour. Nizza: 630 Ninth Avenue, New York NY 10036 (b/n 44th and 45th; map); 212-956-1800 At Moustache in Lambertville, New Jersey, we had what...Two Boots Rock Center Closing; Two Boots Hell's Kitchen Imminent
The Two Boots location in Rockefeller Center (in the weird mall-like area belowground) is closing. But when a door closes, a (pizza) window opens. The mini chain will open a branch at Ninth Avenue and 45th Street. So sayeth Midtown Lunch....Lazzara's Pizza Hell's Kitchen Location Now Open
Midtown Lunch has some great photos of the new Lazzara's Pizza location in Hell's Kitchen. As the Eater blog would say, "CERTIFIED OPEN."...Openings: Lazzara's Pizza, Hell's Kitchen Location
View larger map Just got word from Scott Wiener on a new Lazzara's Pizza location in Hell's Kitchen (or Midtown West, if you're feeling generous): I just walked by some construction the other day and noticed that Lazzara's is opening a new spot on Ninth Avenue just south of 44th Street on the west side of the street. Not sure if they're leaving their other spot or just opening a second one. Permits were issued in July so it looks like we may have to wait a bit. Some easy checking on the Lazzara's website reveals that the Hell's Kitchen...Openings: Nizza
The New York Times's Peter Meehan on Nizza: It offers a wide variety of salads, pizzas that aren’t destination fare but are easy to scarf and a selection of main courses, the best of which — a fried lamb chop Milanese and a wild boar lasagna — are filling enough to get you through a four-act play. New Places: Nizza [NYT]...Mitchel London Pizza
Address: 456 Ninth Avenue, New York NY 10018 (b/n 35th and 36th streets; map) Phone: 212-563-7741 The Skinny: Good mozzarella on the Margherita; careful balance of crust, sauce, and cheese; crust could stand some more salt and some more crispness. The Provençal seems to be a sort of Mitchel London specialty, and, with its interesting mix of fresh mozz, Gruyère cheese, and herbs de Provence, was our favorite pie on each of our visits. Cost: large Margherita, $13.95; small, $7.95. Large Provençal, $13.95; small, $7.95. Premium pies run $1 to $2 more. From left to right, top to bottom: Mitchel...Judging in the America's Plate Pizza Competition
The following events took place last Tuesday, March 6, at the Javits Center in Manhattan, during the New York Pizza Show. I was on hand to judge in PMQ magazine's America's Plate pizza competition. Contestants came from Canada, Luxembourg, France, Spain, Italy, Australia, and the U.S. I had wanted to live-blog the proceedings, but I experienced technical difficulties early in the day. So, here is the tape-delayed version of last week's events. 9:31 a.m.: I enter the Javits Center. It's my first time here. Lots of tall glass and concrete. Doesn't seem very inspiring for a building that in many...Slice is part of the Foodblog Ad Network. To advertise on this site or across a network of food-related weblogs, click here.
