South Slope's Lucali Spin-off to Be Called Giuseppina's
[Photograph: eater.com] The blog Eater brings word via photographic evidence (above) that "Lucali II," the spin-off pizzeria from Mark Iacono's brother, Chris, will be called Giuseppina's. Wow. Doesn't quite roll off the tongue the way Lucali does, does it? Giuseppina's (aka Lucali II) 691 6th Avenue, Brooklyn NY 11215 (South Slope, at 20th Street; map)...Openings: Williamsburg's Vinnie's to Drop Second Location in Greenpoint
[Photograph: Adam Kuban] Vinnie's Pizzeria, on Bedford Avenue in Williamsburg. Known for its vegan and vegetarian options as well as for its more outré slices (mac-and-cheese slice; breakfast slice, described on sandwich board above). And for its T.hanks trash can. Word is they're opening a second location just a bit north in Greenpoint. At Nassau and Kingsland. No date yet. [via Pizza Rules!]...Closings: The Pizza Shop on Avenue A
EV Grieve has the lowdown: We closed the Pizza Shop because the rent was too high. We struggled every month to make it... someone gave me an offer on the space and i decided it was best to take it.... Former owner Kevin Cole tells EV Grieve he's looking for a new location and urges fans of the place to get in touch via email for notification if and when he reopens. The Pizza Shop is the place that did fun, limited-edition boxes of punk rock icons like The Clash and The Ramones....Openings: Paulie Gee's, Greenpoint, Brooklyn
This has been in the works for some time, but it's now official: Paulie Gee (aka Paul Gianonne) has signed the lease on the former Paloma space at 60 Greenpoint Avenue in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, and is hoping to open Paulie Gee's by December. Anyone familiar with the Paulie Gee mythos won't find it surprising that his place will be a wood-fired Neapolitan-style joint. The oven is being built in Naples now and will be shipped over soon. Gianonne says he'll be the sole pizzaman at Paulie Gee's but will have an assistant trained and ready to step in at...Deal: Any Pizza, Plus 2 Beers, $22.50 at Emporio

[Photograph: Adam Kuban] Well, it only took me a week, but I've finally processed the photos from last Saturday and Sunday's Pieman's Craft events. You'll find the slideshow after the jump....Openings: Artichoke Basille's West Side and New Grimaldi-Helmed Operation
The Eater NY has a couple good pieces of intel today. First, that Artichoke Basille's will open a West Side operation in the old Red Rock West Saloon space on Tenth Avenue and 17th Street. It'll be a sit-down restaurant, which is a little scary, seeing as how the original location on 14th Street near First is notorious for service—and that's take-out only. Second, that Patsy Grimaldi is looking to open a new coal-oven place to be called Juliana's. The Eater item doesn't mention where Grimaldi might open, only that he's looking for a space....Mac-and-Cheese Pizza Available at Hell's Kitchen Pizza
Perhaps the most famous purveyor of the mac-and-cheese slice is Ian's Pizza, based in Madison, Wisconsin, but the (literally) cheesy idea has invaded NYC in some spots, including Hell's Kitchen Pizza on Tenth Avenue (47th/48th streets). The blog Lemondrop has a taste. Whether it's as good as Ian's is purported to be, only a expat Wisconsonite could tell us. We got one in the audience willing to give it a go? Email me. Hell's Kitchen Pizza: 691 Tenth Avenue, New York NY 10036 (map); 212-765-8565...Slice is part of the Foodblog Ad Network.
