Pizza a Casa to Open 'Pizza Self-Sufficiency Center'

Mark seems to be a really nice guy, and I'm keeping my fingers crossed his shop and concept do well. Plus, it's right next to where Isabella's used to be.

Grilling: Butterflied Herb Chicken

I make a very similar bird cooking it under the broiler. Living in Manhattan has some limitations, one of which is not having access to a backyard or a grill.

But it still comes out delicious, albeit without the woodsy flavor that you get from a grill.

In some places, they call it spatchcocking. I wrote about it here...

Opening Soon: Brick Oven Pizzeria in Chinatown

That's sorta my neighborhood, and it could be a brilliant location if the pizza turns out good. Look at all the cops with Police Plaza right there, as well as the hordes of tourists, some of whom may even want to duck in for a slice instead of the sublime wontons at Great New York Noodletown - or at least a slice to shut the kids up.
