More Midtown Manhattan Pizza Adventures—Previti Pizza
Continuing on my mission to “try and save the world from bad pizza,” I followed up my trip to Little Italy Pizza with a visit to another Midtown joint I located through my IPhone. After making the dumb mistake of heading west when I needed to go east, I eventually found Previti Pizza, another joint […]
Midtown Manhattan Pizza Adventures—The “Not So” World Famous Little Italy Pizza
After a morning business meeting in midtown Manhattan, I became unexpectedly free for lunch. Being the lovely early summer day that it was, I thought I would wander about and continue my mission of “trying to save the world from bad pizza.” The source of my pessimistic sentiment was the fact that this part of […]
The Pizza Snob Visits the West Village Two Boots Pizzeria: Flavorfully Fabulous
Sometimes I forget just how much I love Two Boots Pizzeria. It’s been almost three years now since they opened one up in my home turf of Nashville. I have paid it many visits, and some of their special pies even made it to my recent “I’m now really old” birthday party. After a recent […]
Sharkey’s Square Pizza– Good Squares and Rounds on Staten Island
The Sunday afternoon matinee show at Hamilton Park House Concerts was over, and it was time for another new Staten Island pizza adventure. For the uninformed, the Island is a big place evidenced by its 14 zip codes—so there’s a lot there to seek out. My web wandering found a worthy-sounding place called Sharkey’s Square […]
Val’s Pizzeria – Staten Island Joint Gets It Right
Readers of this space know that I originally hail from the fine city of Bayonne, NJ. What some may not know is that my home town is just a short hop away from New York City’s oft-forgotten borough of Staten Island. It’s a costly place to visit with the only current way of getting there […]
New York City’s Champion Pizza on Essex Street–The Best Slice in Town….not!
I’m confused. There are three pizza joints with the name “Champion” that are in close proximity to one another in Lower Manhattan. The Snob previously scored a decent slice at Champion Pizza Soho over on Cleveland Street. While the one on Ludlow Street remains unexamined, I was recently lured into the Champion Pizza on Essex […]
Nonna’s L.E.S. Pizzeria—Manhattan Home of the “Magic Squares”
As I watched the singer-songwriter at the Mercury Lounge wind down his show-ending encore, I realized that I lacked a new pizza destination for an after-show slice experience. Bad planning aside, I was also thinking that by now I may have also exhausted all of my pizza possibilities on the Lower East Side. So, at […]
Thin Crust Pizza in Greenwich Village —Cheap Slices and Beer at a Place with No Name
With apologies to the band America, at the end of a recent night in Manhattan I found myself singing “I just had a slice at the joint with no name.” It was near midnight in Manhattan, and I was looking for a new slice. On my mind was the notion that following only good pizza […]
Rossetti’s Pizza in Greenwich Village—I Agree with The Slice Harvester: “It’s Awesome”
Heading into downtown Manhattan for a night of musical mayhem, I knew of no pizza joints where I could test a new cheese slice. Fumbling around on the Google, I turned to the website of The Slice Harvester, that crazy dude who tried every place on the island that would sell him a slice. Well, […]
Sal & Carmine Pizza—New York Slice Perfection on the Upper West Side
The Pizza Snob is a master at the art of working a pizza stop into almost any situation. With this having so far been a low-volume pizza trip to New York, a Saturday slice adventure was a must. In addition, with back-to-back Margherita experiences, it was time to return to the basics with a New […]
