The key to great vegan pizza? It's exactly the same as the key to great cheesy pizza: it comes down to the pieman's craft, the tools being used, and the quality of the individual components, the most important of which is the crust.

With minutes to go and another long, dark meeting ahead of me, I did the unthinkable:
I pulled out a pre-fab frozen vegan pizza from the fridge, tossed it in the toaster oven, and—
gulp—ate it.

There's an
excellent snacking culture in Amsterdam, fueled, no doubt, by the equally excellent drinking and consuming-of-other-legal-narcotics culture. Snack bars line most of the major shopping and socializing districts, while kiosks, stands, and carts can be found serving everything from chicken sandwiches and
bitterballen (Dutch croquettes) to hot dogs and
Vlaamse frites (Flemish fries).

I was having a hard time coming up with what I should be eating for lunch when I remembered reading about this low-cal pizza place that had opened up directly crosstown from Serious Eats World HQ.
Revd up π claims to be leading the pizza revolution. Between the π and the revolutionary rhetoric, I should have known better.
But I was desperate. It was Thursday and I had to jump on Thinner and report to all of you the next morning.

New York is a legendary pizza town. New Orleans has some serious sandwich credibility (
po' boys and
muffulettas). Check and check. But when searching for the best bites all over the country this year, we found some surprises—mind-blowingly tasty foods thriving in regions we didn't really expect at first. Breakfast pastries in Salt Lake City, hot dogs in Tuscon, and more.

I was going to have one slice of pizza for dinner, and
I was determined to make that one slice last a minimum of ten minutes. How would I do that?
By taking a minimum of 15 bites. How was I going to do this? By photographing the slice after every bite. It was going to be my own version of stop-action animation
(pizzanimation!).

Lately I've been obsessed with making pizza. It began with (I'll admit it)
a Boboli renaissance," but has graduated to
pizza crust mixes. Free from worries about yeast, arduous kneading, and second rises, nothing is more fun than hanging out in the kitchen, sipping wine and scouring the fridge for inspired toppings. Recently, I picked up a box of
Ecco La Pasta's Parmesan Pizza Crust Mix (available in select
Williams-Sonoma stores for $12), hoping it would deliver something like Pizza Hut's stuffed crust—but be a bit more, ahem, refined.

Take a lightly toasted rice patty, top it with spicy mayo, chopped maguro (tuna), green onion, and tobiko (fish eggs), and voilà: you've got
sushi pizza (er, "pizza"). The crew of a Japanese TV show that features wacky "Japanese" food served at Japanese restaurants in America visits
Edo Sushi in Hyde Park, New York, to try the restaurant's sushi pizza. Although the hosts initially seem skeptical of the nontraditional dish, they end up liking it.

What happens when Jessie Oleson, aka
Cakespy, goes to Paris? She eats many butter-based pastries—in fact, she hit up at least one pâtisserie in each of the 20 arrondissements! But to prevent insanity, she had to squeeze in a few non-sweet bites too.
Read about her savory escapades, from the best Croque Madame and Monsieurs to falafel on "Falafel Row" to burgers from a kosher deli, and great pizza from a cheap takewaway.

[Photographs: Williams-Sonoma] More Gadgetry Yogurt Maker by Waring Pro » All Gadgets reviews » All the pizza talk around here has really intensified now that the Super Bowl is coming, and I'm jumping in full force. Though I'm sure most of you know the benefits of using pizza stones for your homemade crusts (they suck out moisture giving you that awesome crunchy browning), I wanted to try a rather unconventional approach. Williams-Sonoma makes this crazy pizza stick pan ($24.99). Would it work well without a ceramic base or coating? I made my dough and used the provided cutter to get it into the right shapes. This part worked like a charm—the edges aren't sharp so there's no danger in...
