Easter Pizza Rustica at Papa Perrone's Pizza Truck
Midtown-based slice fiends, an option for lunch today, from Papa Perrone's Pizza Truck. Easter pie: "It’s a meat pie made with sweet and hot sausage, proscuitto, pepperoni, mixed with ricotta, mozzarella, and provolone, baked in a dough. Also called pizza rustica." East 55th Street, b/n Madison and Park avenues....Dear Slice: Aperitivo in Midtown
Clicking in to the Slice inbox today, we've got some intel on Aperitivo in Midtown from Dustin, who checked in in early October with some dirt on Flatbread Co. in Maine. Enjoy. —The Mgmt. Ahoy Adam! Hope all has been well with you these days. Big downer about Co., right? Well at least for those of us who have yet to try it anyway :) Aperitivo 780 Third Avenue, New York NY 10017 (b/n 48th and 49th street; map); 212-758-9402 Anyhoo, since I first read about Aperitivo (the new brick-oven spot in Midtown) on Eater about 2 weeks ago, I...99-Cent Fresh Pizza Line
Midtown Lunch Check out the line at 99¢ Fresh Pizza. Zach Brooks of Midtown Lunch (and Serious Eats New York editor) captured this scene last Wednesday. That line's on par with Di Fara, though I doubt the place is as good. 99¢ Fresh Pizza 151 East 43rd Street, New York NY 10017 (b/n Third and Lexington avenues; map); 212-922-0257...Dean's Pizzeria: Semiserious Pizza
You've heard of semisweet chocolate, right? Well lately I've been encountering a lot of what I call semiserious pizza, most recently at Dean's Pizzeria, yet another pizza "concept" from the folks who have given us the Patsy's mini-chain, Angelo's, and Goodburger. What is semiserious pizza? It's pizza that has many of the characteristics of serious pizza—made with good (if not great) ingredients, baked in an oven that can hold temperatures as high as 800 degrees (either gas-, wood-, or coal-fired), and served as whole-pie only. The only thing missing from semiserious pizza is the presence of a passionate pizzaiolo owner,...A Slice of Heaven: In Defense of Gourmet Pizza
Editor's note: My friend and neighbor Brian Koppelman (writer of Ocean's 13, among others) loves pizza with designer toppings, for which he gives an impassioned defense here. It's an excerpt from my book Pizza: A Slice of Heaven. Words by Brian Koppelman | MY FATHER, WHO FIRST INTRODUCED ME TO PIZZA, IS A PURIST. To him, a pie isn't legit unless it's built like the ones he ate during his high school years in Far Rockaway, Queens. Out there, among the row houses by the Atlantic Ocean, the neighborhood joints served it straight up: crisp crust, tomato sauce, fresh mozzarella....That's Amore: 'Tell Me What You Had in the Box'
It's been awhile since Slice has waded into the plaintive muck of Craigslist's Missed Connections section. So come with me, my loves, to the swamp of love that spawns That's Amore. —The Mgmt. At New Park Pizza on CrossBay Blvd today with your friend - m4w: If this work's I'll not only be really happy but amazed! At New Park Pizza on Cross Bay Blvd in Howard Beach Queens this afternoon. You are light skinned and you were sitting with your girlfriend who was darker. You were wearing what I think I remember was a pink Tee shirt with something...99¢ Fresh Pizza Opens Location Near Grand Central
99 Cent Fresh Pizza, Midtown NYC, blogged to Slice from the Flickr photostream of MidtownLunch The 99¢ pizza place near the Port Authority Bus Terminal that the New York TImes profiled back in October [sorry, it's behind the TimesSelect paywall] has opened a second location: $2.75 gets you two slices and a can of soda. It doesn’t get any better than this… (unless you like your pizza great, and don’t mind paying the money for it). Seriously… I only say it’s not great pizza so I don’t get a million comments questioning whether my taste buds still function. The...Any Good 24-Hour Pizza Joints in NYC?
Reader comment and response is still pouring in thanks to yesterday's New York Times story. So many great comments and recommendations. And questions. Reaching into the proverbial mailbag, we have ... Dear Slice, Do you know of any good late night or 24 hour pizza places in NYC? —Bilal Dear Bilal, Slice is a homebody, more prone to lying prone on the couch at night, remote in hand, watching Battlestar Galactica. But our favorite late-night (if not 24-hour) place is Vinny Vincenz. Great squares here. Sunday through Thursday till 1 a.m. Friday and Saturday till 4:30 a.m. Late enough for...Where Is the Midtown Pizza Truck?
A reader emails us: My office is on 51st and Lex, and lately my coworkers and I have been missing the Pizza Truck. Has he changed locations or something? If you have any updates, please respond when you can (I think my boss has a craving for a Sicilian). Thank you so much! :-) I just tried calling both the numbers listed on the truck (pictured above). The first one is disconnected. The second, well, I'm not sure if I can make it out from the photo, but it seems to be a dead end, too. Anyone know what...Slice is part of the Foodblog Ad Network.
