That's Amore: Hot Times on Bedford Avenue
Because even grease-stained wretches need love, too, Slice wades waist-deep into the plaintive muck of Craigslist's Missed Connections in search of pizza-related longing. Such is the swamp of love that spawns That's Amore. —The Mgmt. [Photograph: Adam Kuban] you said I was beautiful..anna marias pizza - w4m - 22 (bedford ave): "This was on a Thursday night maybe 3 weeks ago, at anna marias on bedford across from the charleston. We sat down at the same time, and both made awkward glances at eachother the whole time. As you got up to leave you came over to me and said...Dear Slice: Vertuccio's Pizza on the Park
Clicking in to the Slice inbox, some intel from FoS Rachel W. about Vertuccio's, that new brick-oven place on North 12th Street (facing McCarren Park) in Williamsburg. —The Mgmt. The most striking feature of the place is its oven. It's a huge gargantuan machine in the center of the room. The pizza itself was pretty good. Sauce and cheese were great, but we thought the flavor in the crust left something to be desired.Mine was topped with sopressata, which was damn tasty—better than Motorino's. However, Motorino, as a whole, is still much better.The owner(?) also comped us a slice of...Openings: Vertuccio's, a New Brick-Oven Pizzeria in Williamsburg

The Margherita at Co. GQ's Alan Richman offers an entertaining take on two recently opened pizzerias, Co. and Motorino. (He says Mayor Bloomberg should stimulate the city's economy by opening more pizzerias.) On Co., Richman says: The pizza at Co. is produced by Jim Lahey of the revered Sullivan St Bakery and answers this question: If pizza is essentially crust, and if crust is essentially bread, and if Lahey is possibly the finest bread-maker in New York, shouldn’t the pizza at Co. be superb? This is not a trick question. The pizza is, for the most part, exactly that....Motorino Twittering: @motorino
Cool: Motorino in Williamsburg is on Twitter (@motorino. Not cool: They're bitin' my phrase, "Hasta la pizza." Step off, n00bs. I've been using that phrase for years....'New York Times' on Motorino
"It hasn’t yet offered me a perfect meal. But it improved enough between two visits to inspire hope that Motorino will eventually launch itself into the upper strata of the city’s pizzerias." [New York Times]...Fornino Pizza Delivery to Serious Eats Holiday Bowling Party
Last night, Serious Eaters booked it to Williamsburg to celebrate the holidays at The Gutter. While the alley doesn't serve hot dogs, chicken fingers, or other standard bowling fare—though I did spot beef jerky—they luckily have a BYOF policy. What would our "Food" be? Delivery pizza from Fornino. We weren't the only ones with this idea, either. Fornino is just a half-mile away, so they'll bring it right to the alley. Our four pies included: sausage, artichoke and tomato, mushrooms with truffle oil, and a basic Margherita. Sausage was first to go, and by far the crowd favorite. Truffles...Motorino Introduces Prix-Fixe Lunch Menu
Margherita pie at Motorino. Williamsburg pizzeria Mortorino is jumping on the prix-fixe meal bandwagon (it seems to be the recent trend with recession-fearing diners hungry for deals). Between 11 a.m. and 4 p.m., this two-course lunch menu for $10 features: soup (rotating every other day-ish; today's is brussels sprouts) or salad (the tri-color salad with radicchio, endive, and arugula). And, of course, pizza, with five options available: margherita, soppressata piccante, marinara, anchovy, and speck with brussels sprouts. [via kludt on Twitter] UPDATE: This deal only applies to weekdays. On Saturday and Sunday, Motorino offers a brunch menu from 11...Slice is part of the Foodblog Ad Network.
