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...Turn Here: Fun Pizza Videos
Just saw Boing Boing mention Turn Here, a video site that features fun footage of places (hopefully) near you. And you and you and you and you. We did a search for pizza and found a couple neat shorts starring competitive eater Crazy Legs Conti. In Part 1, Mr. Conti visits Koronet Pizza in Manhattan's Morningside Heights neighborhood and Pizza Gruppo in the borough's East Village. Both choices make sense, given his eating feats. Koronet's slices are known for their HUGEness (as big as your head) and Gruppo is so thin that you could eat tons of it before...Ray's: The Question Remains Unanswered
In yesterday's New York Times F.Y.I. column, the question was raised: Where was the first Ray's Pizza, and what's the story behind it? A. Why don’t you ask something simple, like what happened to Judge Crater? Some New York culinary questions (just who invented the black-and-white cookie is another) are destined to remain shrouded in mystery. The evolution of Ray’s Pizza resists an easy explanation.... The Ray’s question is also bristling with lawyers. Rosolino Mangano, of Famous Original Ray’s Pizza on Columbus Avenue near 83rd Street, went to court in the early 1990’s, registered that name and branched out with...This Is Radio Slice
Freelance journalist, Columbia journalism graduate student, and Slice reader Cyrus Farivar offered us a radio piece on Koronet Pizza that he recently completed. Columbia requires its journalism students to take one class in medium that they don't usually work in. Since Mr. Farivar works primarily in print, he chose radio. Listen to Cyrus's report on Koronet. We had no idea they had special pans made to hold their giant pies! KORONET PIZZA Location: 2848 Broadway (b/n 110th & 111th) Phone: 212-222-1566 The Skinny: 32-inch pies mean huge slices. Plain slices go for $2.75 each....Would You Like Ranch Or Vinaigrette With Your Slice?
photograph by Joe Schumacher | Blogger Joe Schumacher visits Morningside Heights pizzeria Koronet and observes some strange behavior. Koronet, for those of you who don't know, is known for slices that can be described as "as big as your head." In his blog entry Extra Value Is What You Get, Mr. Schumacher says: While I was eating, three teenagers with southeast Ohio accents came in and also got slices. Koronet's slices are so large that you have to fold them in order to eat them. These guys weren't folding and it wasn't a pretty sight. I was about to show...V&T Pizzeria
I SAW THE SIGN: With its charming neon sign and stories of classicly gruff New York–waitstaff attitude, we wanted so much to like V&T. But the pizza just didn't do it for us.V&T Pizzeria is a Morningside Heights spot that often draws raves in many of the various "best of" stories that run in the city's various publications at various times of the year. We don't know why. On recent visits to this oft-spoke-of Italian eatery, we found the pies to be thin but soggy, laden with both too much cheese and too much sauce, and only a couple notches...Slice is part of the Foodblog Ad Network.
