Slice Mentioned In Bon Appétit!
Slice's editor in chief (that's me) just got an instant message from his friend Laren, something to the effect of "Did you know you're in the January issue of Bon Appétit?" "Huh? No! No way!" I said. Raiding petty cash, I went to the nearest newsstand to pick up a copy or two. Sure enough: There in the "Starters" section, on page 20 of the January 2005 issue, is an item about food blogs: Bloggingthe internet phenom in which people write diary-like website entries about their personal obsessionshas hit the food world, and now anyone who eats has something...Get MUGged
A late-in-the-day Thanks! goes out to Charlie Suisman and his great website Manhattan User's Guide. Mr. Suisman's MO is to pick a New Yorkcentric topic and then serve up the best info he can find on it, coming up with links, businesses, services, and happenings that are often useful, obscure, and fun all at once. We encourage you to check it out. MUG's topic today was food blogs, and Slice, your favorite pizza blog, made the list. Given the careful consideration with which Mr. Suisman compiles his lists, we are honored to be mentioned on the site and are in...Review: The Sun Shines On La Villa, Franny's, Peperoncino
The New York Sun, which "shines for all," sheds some rays on the recent pizzification of Park Slope, a subject we examined not too long ago on Slice. Unfortunately, the Web version of the Sun shines only for those who have online subscriptions to read it. For the rest of you, Slice, like Prometheus stealing fire from the gods, has scanned the article for your elucidation. The fire analogy is particularly appropriate for this pizza story. That's because Sun writer Paul Lukas examines three wood-fired-oven pizzerias in the neighborhood: La Villa, Franny's, and Peperoncino. We first became aware of...The Post On Joe's Closing: 'Sad Slice Of Life'
Not much time this morning to write much of an entry here, but here's the New York Post on the Joe's closing: When your rent hits the sky, like a kick to the eye — that's finito. Joe's Pizza, a world-renowned Bleecker Street fixture on the corner of Carmine Street, is closing after 29 years because of an enormous rent hike, the owner told The Post. "It makes me sad," said Joe Pozzuoli. The landlord is "asking too much. I offered him $11,000. He said no, he said he's renting it for $15,000 plus tax." That's quite a jump...Slice Pizza Club In The Post
Slice got a nice mention in the New York Post today in a story about various food clubs in New York City. Food writer Andrea Strong gives readers the buzz on dining groups Foodie, the Brooklyn Food Club, and the eGullet-based New York Pizza Survey, among others. What she says about the pizza-eating clubs: Pizza, too, has a fan club the New York Pizza Survey, which grew out of on-line discussions on the foodie Web site eGullet.com. The club meets about once a month to eat (and dissect) pies at spots like Totonno's, Di Fara's and Lombardi's, examining the...Slice Gets Props From ABC7 Tech Guru Sree
ABC7's tech guru, Sreenath Sreenivasan, perhaps more widely known as Sree, mentioned Slice in his Useful Sites column today. We don't know if he also mentioned us on air, because his segment airs Thursdays at 6:45 a.m., and this morning Slice editors were either sleeping, on a train, or monkeying with a motorbike. So here's a big WELCOME! to any new readers coming from the ABC7 site. And a bit THANK YOU! to Sree for giving us a shout out. And can anyone tell us if they did indeed learn about Slice from TV. If so, I'm so sorry I...Slice In The Voice
The August 18 Village Voice mentions Slice as part of a laundry list of GOP conventionrelated oddities: NY slice of life The editors of Slice (sliceny.com), an NYC weblog of all things pizza, have created a catalog of pizza protocol for visiting conventioneers. At GOPizza.net, Bushites will learn, in scrupulous detail, the fine art of ordering and holding a slice, along with the history of coal ovens in New York. Slice has even created an iPod-based handbook to the choicest pies in the city. AKIVA GOTTLIEB The editors of Slice thank Akiva Gottlieb and the Voice for the mention. And...Slice In The Post
