Only in New York*: Get Papa John's By-the-Slice, 99¢
With the prevalent pizza culture in New York City favoring pizza by the slice, even major chains have to adapt. It's perhaps the only place you'll see Papa John's selling single slices for 99¢.NYC Wine & Food Fest Planning a Blow-Out Pizza Party Event for 2010?
An interesting tweet from Lee Schrager, the man behind the NYC Wine & Food Festival: @Lee_Schrager: "what are your fav pizza places in NY? we are lining them up now for Pizza Party at #NYCWFF this October..wouldnt Rocco be a great host?" Very intriguing. If you're familiar with the Wine & Food Festival (sort of a South by Southwest of food), this should bring to mind such hot-ticket NYCWFF events as the annual Rachael Ray Burger Bash (which also takes place at the South Beach Wine & Food Festival) and last year's Meatball Madness party. While there are hundreds of...Photo of Pulino's Pizza on 'ZagatBuzz'
ZagatBuzz manages to get a photo of a pizza from Nate Appleman's upcoming Pulino's Bar and Pizzeria. Of course you can't judge a book by its cover, and the photo from a Zagat reader is a little blurry, but the pie looks fairly interesting. If you recall, Appleman told Slice that he was going for a unique style of pizza. Pulino's will open Monday. Pulino's Bar and Pizzeria 282 Bowery, New York NY 10012 (at Houston; map)...Kesté Now Serving Gluten-Free Pizza on Monday and Tuesday Nights
[Photograph: Adam Kuban] From an email from Kesté Pizza & Vino: Starting [Monday, March 8] we will be serving gluten-free pizza. We will only serve it on Monday and Tuesday evenings. We will start with our Marinara, Mast'Nicola, and Margherita pies for now.We are using gluten-free Caputo flour.We're using a different oven to bake the pizza and a different workstation so as to avoid any kind of contamination with regular flour, as we will be serving both regular and gluten-free pizzas at the same time. Kesté Pizza & Vino 271 Bleecker Street, New York NY 10014 (b/n Jones and...Paulie Gee's Opening Tonight in Greenpoint
A reminder, in case you don't already know: Paulie Gee's is opening tonight at 6 p.m. We were able to go to a friends and family night on Saturday at the new Greenpoint wood-oven pizzeria, and our man J. Kenji Lopez-Alt snapped some photos. They're in the gallery above, if you should feel like previewing what you might find tonight. No word yet on what the opening-night menu might be. When contacted for comment, Mr. Giannone said, "Not yet. I'm up to my ass in alligators." Update: We now have the menu. It appears after the jump. Paulie Gee's 60...Openings: Eddie's of New Hyde Park Bringing Its Bar Pizza to the Streets of Midtown/Financial District
Rejoice, Long Island expats and Long Islanders who commute into NYC for work: Eddie's of New Hyde Park is bringing its renowned bar pizza to Manhattan. In May, Eddie's will dispatch a pizza truck to rumble along the city's not-so-mean streets. How do we know this? Twitter, of course. As Ed Levine wrote about Eddie's in Pizza: A Slice of Heaven: I was pleasantly surprised by how much I liked Eddie's pizza, which features a crust not much thicker than one of those pieces of cardboard sandwiched inside my laundered shirts. Though the crust is cracker-thin, it's surprisingly pliant. You...Scenes from a Pizzeria: Antonio Starita's One-Night-Only 'Secret Show' at Kesté
It was sort of like one of those secret rock shows where your favorite band comes to town and puts the word out via Facebook or Twitter that it's doing a one-night-only gig in an intimate setting. Only here, it was pizza. And the star was Antonio Starita, of Pizzeria Starita in Naples, Italy. Here, a beautiful photo set from his appearance at Kesté Pizza & Vino in New York City.NYC: La Pizza Fresca (or, 'How the VPN Is Like THX Sound')
Alejandro Rivas has been the pizzaiolo at New York City's La Pizza Fresca since it opened in 1997 and fired up its wood-burning oven. He has made tens of thousands of pizzas since, working lunch and dinner six days a week. He gets Saturdays off, when his boss takes over the oven, but I bet the pies are not quite as good on those days. I asked Rivas if he ever eats pizza on his day off. He looked at me like I was nuts.Photo of the Day: Party in a Box (or Several)
