    2. Yessir. The best pizza is from NYC although I politely defer to those who have been to Italy since I never have and cannot compare.

  19. I read this as "the first time he's ordered a single slice" as opposed to ordering an entire pizza.

    ReplyDelete
  20. I didn't have pizza until I was in my teens. My Mom cooked a lot and we didn't do take out or delivery like it is now.

    My pizza is just cheese with lots of crushed peppers.

    ReplyDelete
  21. Sausage with onions, garlic and anchovies.
    (Yeah yeah, but they really are good on the right pie)

    ReplyDelete
  22. Pepperoni, bell peppers of any color and pineapple. Crispy, crumbled bacon is good too! And real cheese; the kind that strings waaayyyy out!

    ReplyDelete

  39. Must be thin crust because it's just a vehicle for the toppings. Otherwise it's bread. Light tomato, fresh mozzarella, garlic, basil and thanks to Gayeld fucking slivered almonds lightly toasted.
    We frequently have dinner parties where I prep the toppings and people gather in the kitchen, drinking wine and making their own. It's a great way to share food and time.

  40. Give the man a whole pie.

  41. I read this on DListed last night and saw it as Capt Picard's first slice of NY pizza, not necessarily pizza. Our local chain makes some awesome pizza - I'm not a vegetarian, but I love their veggie menu when I stray to the carb side.

    FOO FOO
    Marinated artichoke hearts, sun dried tomatoes, garlic & feta cheese

    GREEK VEGGIE
    Fresh spinach, roma tomatoes, red onions, black olives, garlic & feta cheese

    MARGHERITA
    Fresh basil leaves atop an olive oil & garlic base with roasted roma tomatoes and a light sprinkle of feta cheese

    POPEYE & OLIVE OIL
    Fresh spinach leaves on a bed of creamy alfredo sauce with roma tomatoes, garlic & feta cheese

    RUSTIC PIE
    Baby red potatoes, roma tomatoes, garlic, broccoli & a sprinkle of feta cheese

  42. Mushroom & black olives. Pineapple added occasionally. Pepperoni. All of this is back in the day.

    Turriello's pizza in Nyack NY for the GREASE that dripped off the cheese slice that cost a quarter. This was in the halcyon 70s. They are still in business, I believe, so anyone in NY can take a drive to Nyack On The Hudson and get a taste of REAL pizza. I think I last had it about 5-6 years ago. I can't say if it is still the same now, but it was then...

    I can't eat pizza any more due to the gluten situation. Will miss it forevermore.

    ReplyDelete
  43. Green Olives, Black olives, Feta Cheese, Artichoke, Eggplant,Onions, red peppers

    ReplyDelete
  44. I'm not a big fan o' the pizza generally, but if I do partake:

    Gourmet: balsamic reduction, whole garlic, and truffle oil

    Standard: pineapple & meatball

    ReplyDelete
  45. Feta, pepperoni and Banana Peppers. First time I ever had it was at Princes' club in Minn, back in the 90's. Big fan ever since!

    ReplyDelete
  47. I'll eat pretty much anything on a pizza, but I don't like a lot of meat.

    ReplyDelete
  48. And Grape, I wanna know where you get that gourmet pizza!

    ReplyDelete
  49. Growing up near Montreal it was "all dressed"-mushroom pepperoni green pepper
    Where I live now, pizza just isn't the same, so I don't really have a favorite.

    ReplyDelete
  50. Real pizza - Ginos, Cross Bay Blvd., Jamaica, Queens. Anything there Is awesome. They make their own cheese.

    Zios - Rockville, MD. They make their own sausage.

    And now I'm hungry!

    ReplyDelete
  51. Vegetarian Greek at my favorite Greek restaraunt. Otherwise......supreme.

    ReplyDelete
  52. Meatball from House of Pizza and Calzone on Union St in Brooklyn.

    ReplyDelete
  53. Nothin better than a Sweep the Kitchen(everything) from Johnny's, hold the 'fish'.

    ReplyDelete
  54. It depends. Sausage on a thin, dryer crust. Pepperoni on a deep dish. I also like bacon and red onion, pineapple and canadian bacon, and mushroom and black olive.

    ReplyDelete
  55. Thin crust white pizza with ricotta (not too much, please) mozzarella, fresh garlic. Favorite optional toppings: Eggplant, artichoke, jalapeno, olives, mushrooms.

    ReplyDelete
  56. Green and black olives, sometimes some peppers and other veggies.

    ReplyDelete
  57. Homemade - partial whole wheat crust with olive oil, fresh basil, ripe Roma tomatoes and fresh mozzarella. Ordering a pizza out, I like the supreme no olives. There is a place in Detroit called Bogartz on Mack Ave that has some really great pizza. If your in Sacramento, try Zelda's. It's a different crust, more like pie crust and deep dish. In Sierra Vista AZ, it is definitely Delio's Pizza. In Greenfield, Ma it's Village Pizza on Bank Row the best ever. A little hole in the wall and the beer is kinda flat but the best pizza ever!

    I have other recommendations for the towns and cities I've lived in. I love pizza! It's always been my favorite food. I am proud to say that my kids and husband always say I make the best pizza even though I experiment with crusts, sauces and toppings. When ever my youngest comes home for leave from the Marine Corps, he always asks me to make two things: Pizza and Roast Chicken with all the trimmings.

    ReplyDelete
  58. I am still focusing on his baby sized soda...

    For me though Chicago/Stuffed pizza with Italian sausage kalamata olives and mushrooms.
