Coal-Oven Pizzerias in New York City
Adam, Any idea just how many pizza ovens in NYC are heated with coal? Mahalo, E.J.F. Dear E.J.F., I know you've emailed a couple times about this, and my apologies for the delayed response—things have been busy at the Slice–Serious Eats office. Anyway, off the top of my head, here are all the ones I can think of. Readers, if I've forgotten any, do let me know in the comments. Hasta la pizza, Adam...Daily News Pizza Roundup
This is another week-old one that we neglected to post about during our renovation. The Daily News did a roundup of New York City's best pizzerias last week. As we told Eater, the new foodblog from the folks who brought you Curbed: A nice roundup, I think. A lot of it is old hat to me, but there were some nice surprises in there, particularly a couple Brooklyn places (Graziella's, Laura's) that have been lurking one or two neighborhoods over from Slice HQ.Irene Sax knows her stuff, and I agree with most of her assessments, although I don't know why...Sac's Place Pizza in 'Newsday'
Newsday today has a nice, witty review of Sac's Place Pizza, the coal-oven joint in Astoria, Queens. We like the way the author, Josh Ozersky (aka Mr. Cutlets, "New York's Most Conspicuous Carnivore"), starts the story:...Sac's Place Pizza
A DISPATCH FROM SLICE PIZZA CLUB NO. 3On the beautiful day that was last Saturday, Slice Pizza Club No. 3 convened at Sac's Place Pizza in Astoria. Five people sat down to lunch that afternoon, including this reporter, who also served as the lone representative of this publication. This is the story of what they ate....Don't Forget: The Pizza Club Meets Tomorrow
Sac's Place Pizza + Bohemian Beer Garden Membership in the Slice Pizza Club is open to all those who simply show up. Details for Saturday's meet-up As always, look for this guy when you arrive. (He'll be wearing a Slice button on that same windbreaker.) About tomorrow's weather: Gosh-darn "isolated T-storms" are in the effin' forecast. But the Beer Garden will still be open and we'll still be going!...Slice Pizza Club No. 3: Some Pies Have All The Luck
Some pies get all the breaks. Case in point: Name all the coal-oven pizzerias in New York City ...Your list surely includes Lombardi's, (the East Harlem) Patsy's, John's, Totonno's, and Grimaldi's. But what about Sac's? Yes, Sac's. In Astoria. Never heard of it? We hadn't, either—not until a couple months ago. Which is odd, because a coal-fired oven is the holy grail of pizzadom in this town. So why is it that the legacy pizzerias get all the props while this Queens-based shop, located not more than two blocks off the busy Broadway stop on the N/W, doesn't get any?...Slice is part of the Foodblog Ad Network.
