anyone know where you can get roman style pizza in the NYC area? it's my absolute favourite kind, yet I can't find it anywhere!

Sophisticated wedding pizza?

i agree with the mini pizzas (pizzette) idea. in italy they're very popular both for catered events and just as snacks at home.

Poll: Is It Pizza If It Doesn't Have Cheese?

i can think of quite a few traditional types of Roman pizza a taglio (similar to those at sullivan st bakery) that don't have cheese on them

Cook the Book: Clam and Chile Pizza

I used to love the franny's clam pizza, but last few times I've gone there it's been waaaay too salty to the point of being unpleasant. And usually I love salty food but these pizzas were just too much

'New York Post' on Di Fara's $5 Slices

After 6 years in NY i finally went to Di Fara for first time this past thursday. Adam, I actually saw you walking by as I was getting dropped off at 5th and Union and thought to offer you one of my left over slices but by the time i got out the car you were already down the street. As for the pizza, we dropped over $140 there that night between 5 of us and it was worth every penny

Tap'd NY, New York City's Bottled Tap Water

I don't get why people hate this product so much. Sometimes you need portable water, and isn't it better to use water from Brooklyn than water from Maine or Fiji?

Salumeria Rosi Open (Sort Of)

Openings: La Pizzetta on Atlantic Avenue

Went here last night with some friends. It was pretty good, and at only $9.50 for a margherita, and a 5 min walk from my apartment, I'll definitely be going back soon.

They actually have wood in the oven, but from the looks of it there's also gas lines in the back.

Dear Slice: Where Can I Get Good Early-Morning Pizza?

the 99c slice place on 43rd st is open in the morning. before moving to a different office building i got into a bad habit of stopping there for breakfast

99-Cent Fresh Pizza Line

yeah, it's often undercooked, but if you ask for it well done, you'll still be out quicker than waiting in that line

There's a deli just around the corner on 3rd ave between 43rd and 44th that also sells 99c slices
