Pizza Belt North: The I-95, Merritt Parkway Pizza Guide

Whoops!! Please ignore the previous message. I was talking about Joe's Fleetwood Pizza, which is right of the Cross County parkway, NOT the Cross-Westchester. This place has a nice, thin crusted, well balanced slice and looks pretty much like the pie you showed from Johnny's. Anyway, seems like Mt. Vernon has it's share of good pizzeria.

Funny I was at Johnny's a few weeks ago ans was gonna tout this place. They turn out a great pie but the service, at least in the pizzaria half, can be a little surly. definitely worth a vist, though, if you're in the area. It's right off the cross-westchester expressway.

My favorite store-bought cookie is _____

Surprised nobody mentioned Mallomars. made by nabisco, they only come out in the cooler weather becaused the dark chocolate coating (over a marshmallow topping to what probably is just a nilla wafer) melts in the summer.
My alltime favorite though was the dark chocolate covered graham crackers, also made by nabisco. They only came 15 to a package.
I would bite a tiny piece off diagonally opposed corners and suck the ice cold milk through as if using a straw. The cookie would then be milk saturated and ready for eating. Alas, Nabisco apparently has discontinued them.

Lunch: New York Pizza Suprema

There used to be a small chain in Florida, called Dino's, that made their Sicialian pie this way. it was actually quite good, though their regular pizza was not. it was soon taken over and renamed Brooklyn's, at least the main location we used to frequent. Brooklyn's, sorry to say, is a disgrace to their name.

I was at Roseland a few years ago and was a little disappointed. I've never been to Marty's.

Also forgotten were Marty's Pizza and More in Black Rock (part of Bridgeport, and near Pepe's Fairfield) and Roseland Pizza in Derby (about 15-20 minutes north of Bridgeport on Rt. 8).

Oooo. I love Colony in Stamford. That is the only thing I miss about the area though.

I grew up in Miami eating Mike's Pizza at least twice a week, and he always made his sicilian slices this way, I think it's the best

Vienna Fingers

My favorite store-bought cookie is _____

Cinnamon Teddy Grahams! Delicately sweet and crunchy, but not hard and a substantial texture (I love that kind of rough, grainyness of graham crackers)!
Never underestimate this humble little cookie...

I actually never had these as a kid, but in college, I was in the market for munchies because of long hours and irregular meal times...and I developed an addiction to Teddy Grahams...

My favorite store-bought cookie is _____

When i lived in Malta, i developed a fondness for vanilla creams and would entrie packages of them in a single sitting. I also have a fondness for digestives with tea.

Ont eh US front, going back to my early childhood visitng my grandparents on their farm, they would always ahve a package of the Keebler soft chewy chocolate chip cookies, and the chocolate-covered grahams. They may not taste the best, but the memories that they bring back are wonderful!
