I believe this email (received early last week*) is made redundant by the recent talk going on about the Munchmobile's exploits, but it's still worth making into its own post for folks who might not read through to the comments. It's from one Lou T. — no doubt the same Lou T. you know from the comments here on Slice. —The Mgmt. Reaching in to the Slice mailbag, we've got ... You should head over to Arturo's in Maplewood, New Jersey. It's a stone's throw from Manhattan (closer to Newark) and they do everything fresh. Sauce from fresh tomatoes, house-made...Munchmobile Pizza Patrol Finds Best Pizza in New Jersey

This comes to us by way of someone who was shilling in the comments, but it's some hot info so I'm going to take the bait and highlight it ... [Photograph: Undici Restaurant] Tonight in Rumson, New Jersey, for one night only, famed and former UPN pizzamaker Anthony Mangieri will be making pizza one last time on the East Coast before heading to San Francisco. Mangieri has been consulting for Undici Taverna Rustica in this tony Jersey Shore borough (The Boss lives there), supposedly going as far as "tearing apart their kitchen and building an authentic, Naples-style, wood-fired oven." Mangieri...Nomad Pizza Co. Photo Gallery
[Photographs: Adam Kuban, except where noted] A few weeks ago, a pizza field trip essentially organized itself in the comments of a post about Nomad Pizza Co. On Saturday, the field trip finally happened. Among those on hand: Famdoc, Philip Given, Jason IDOP, Stacey Snacks, Ciao Chow Linda, Nick Sherman, Scott Wiener, Sean Taylor, Paulie Gee, Brownie, and Cary and Lillian Steiner. (Wow. Did I get everyone with a URL?) Slideshow photo gallery, after the jump....Nomad Pizza Co.: Notes from the Field
Friend of Slice and Serious Eats New York contributor Tam Ngo recently emailed some field notes from a recent visit to Nomad Pizza Co., a newish Neapolitan pizza operation in Hopewell, New Jersey, that's been getting some love from the pizzerati as of late. Here are her quick impressions of the place. —The Mgmt. [Photographs: Tam Ngo] I haven't had heavyhitter Neapolitan-style Motorino yet, so I can't compare it. But Nomad's crust is crisper, more pliant, and has a more developed flavor than that of Keste's. (Even though I dug the texture, Keste's crust was surprisingly monoflavored to me.)...Openings: Nomad Pizza Co., Hopewell, New Jersey
[Photographs: Nomad Pizza Co.] While I was skipping the light Francisco on the west side, New Jersey pizza madman Paulie Gee was scouting the Garden State checking in on a place he had read about on NJ.com: Nomad Pizza Co. Nomad Pizza Co. started as a truck-based operation and opened an actual restaurant a couple weeks ago in Hopewell, New Jersey. After the jump, I've got a picture of the oven at the new Nomad restaurant, courtesy of Paulie, but before that, I want you to check out their truck:...Comment of the Day: We Tease You 'Cause We Love You

Dunno if you're tapped out on reading any more reactions to the Alan Richman Top 25 Pizza List, but I haven't yet seen someone from New Jersey get in on the pile up—until now. Here's Caroline from the blog Devil & Egg defending the Garden State's cheesy honor: Now for my complaint, where's the Jersey representation!? What the friggin frick! I mean, come on. Providence, R.I., gets 2 pizzerias! New Haven gets 2! NYC gets 5 (and didn't include the original Patsy's in East Harlem)! Michigan gets 4!!!! San Francisco 3? Philly gets 2! And Jersey ... 0Come on.
