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!]...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...Whoa, Nella: Grassano's Return to Chicago's Pizza Scene Is Imminent
[Photographs: Franco Grassano] Nella Pizzeria Napoletana 2423 N. Clark Street, Chicago, IL 60614 (map); 773-327-3400; pizzerianella.com Getting There: #22 Clark Street bus to Clark and Fullerton, walk ½ block north Pizza Style: Neapolitan Oven Type: Wood Since Spacca Napoli opened in early 2006, it has been, hands down, the best Neapolitan pizzeria in Chicago. At some point in the next few weeks, I predict that will no longer be the case. The reason: Nella Grassano, Spacca Napoli's original pizzaiola, the woman who taught most of Spacca's staff how to make pizza, is opening Nella Pizzeria Napoletana. To say that...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....Emilia's Pizzeria in Berkeley Opens to the Public; Hours, Offerings Limited for Now
Ignore the sign above. Emilia's is now open to the public, though in limited capacity. [Photograph: Adam Kuban] Early last month I had the pleasure of getting an early taste of Emilia's Pizzeria in Berkeley, California. If the pizza I had during that friends-and-family event is any indication of what it is now that Emilia's is in soft open mode, Berkeley residents are in for a treat. The refreshingly unpretentious non-Neapolitan pizzeria started operating in a limited capacity on Monday night. After the jump, Keith Freilich, Emilia's owner-pizzaman explains....Openings: Vertuccio's, a New Brick-Oven Pizzeria in Williamsburg

[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:...New York Post Roundup of Pizzerias About to Open
The sign is up at the East Village Motorino location (formerly Una Pizza Napoletana). [Photograph: Paulie Gee] The New York Post's Carla Spartos rounds up a number of pizzerias in the city that are slated to open soon (or soonish). If you've been reading Slice regularly, you'll recognize many of the names (Pulino's Bar and Pizzeria, Grimaldi's Manhattan, Motorino East Village, and Lucali II), but there are some new (to me) venues on the list: No. 28 Pizza Romano, a Roman-style branch of Greenwich Village's Neapolitan-styled No. 28; and a West Side branch of grilled-pizza outpost Accademia di Vino....New East Village Motorino Opening September 14
According to the New York Times, the East Village Motorino (replacing Una Pizza Napoletana) will open September 14. Fun fact: Mathieu Palombino has retiled the oven, replacing Anthony Mangieri's white tiles with black ones....Slice is part of the Foodblog Ad Network.
