Pizza in Italy is just something they do for the tourists, especially from America. The best pizza you can find isn't in Italy.

Could have fooled me - I thought pizza originated in Naples but I could be mistaken. I had some great pizza in Venice, Florence, and all over Tuscany. Maybe it seemed to taste better because of where I was, but it was consistently good no matter where we had it. We always got margherita pizza, which is nowhere near as heavy as some of the pizzas I've had here.

Lombardi's in NY is probably my overall favorite to date, although I had some pretty average pizza in NYC also.

I hate to be cliche, but the best Pizza i've had was in Chicago. I love a deep dish pizza.

No doubt it's good, but just too heavy. I was in Chicago over Labor Day weekend and went to Pizza Uno (average) and Lou Malnati's (excellent). About two pieces of that stuff and I'm done.

That's why a small works well for the Missus and I. I think we need to have a SC Pizza Throwdown with you, me, DD and eagleskins.

And Chicago deep dish isn't pizza. It just isn't. Don't get me wrong. It's not a bad dish. But it's not pizza.

Fortunately that's just one New Yawker's opinion. Most people throughout the country have better taste and thus a different opinion.

I've had pizza in NYC but not in Chicago. I have to agree with Joe, though, that shit is casserole, not pizza.

[CAA Flagship]

While I have rarely met a pizza I could not eat, "NY pizza", as I interpret the saying, is they style (i.e. not deep dish). However, the NY area has a flavor that is clearly different than anywhere else in the country, and it is because of the ingredients used. The dough, the sauce, the cheese, etc. Where I live in VA, there is one place where a pizza shop guy from Brooklyn (no sleep till) orders his ingredients from NY suppliers. The cost of this versus local supplier brands of ingredients is much higher. But the pizza is an exact match for traditional pizza found in the NY area. And it is spectacular.

Damn. All this talk about pizza has me in a light-headed state and I can't remember the fucking point I was trying to make.
Oooooh!!! Lunch time. Gotta go.

You know, now that I review my entire life I don't think I've ever had pizza that was bad enough not to eat. And I'm a huge fan of pizza straight out of the fridge in the AM.

I said "most" not all. You're obviously one of those east coast wanna-be pizza snobs with poor taste.

And you haven't had a Chicago-style pizza until you've had one in Chicago - Gino's, Uno's, Due's, or Lou Malnati's in the suburbs.

Thin vs. Deep Dish pizza is like Ale vs. Stout. They're both beers just different variations on the theme.

TampaJag has a place in Indian Rocks Beach that he uses as a front for some of his other activities. They make really good pizza, though.

I'd love to have a few slices of pepperoni pizza right now.


Btw, I remember in college a few NY guys asked if I wanted to go in on pie. I told them no b/c I hated pie. Boy was I shocked 30 minutes later when they showed up with pizza. I still hate that name...it's pizza not pie.

In Phoenix we have a chain called "Streets of New York" Pizza...they import their water from NYC. Claim the flavor is all about the water. Pizza is alright...nothing special in my book.

Many NY'ers believe this to be true, especially in baking. They will swear bagels and other breads are different there because of the water. But that has changed a bit over the last 15 years or so as NY has used alternative methods of disifection of the drinking water such as chloramines versus chlorine.

Pizza means "pie" in Italian.
