Amore Pizzeria in Flushing, NY—A Decent Slice on the Island
Manhattan is undoubtedly the center of the New York slice universe. This is of course no surprise since it was on this great island that the most magnificent food known to mankind was created. It is also no surprise that this delightful delicacy would eventually spread not only throughout the city, but to the vast […]
Lamonicas NY-Pizza—Trying to be NY in LA
Los Angeles singer-songwriter Randy Newman was singing “I Love LA” around the same time I heard New York City rocker Garland Jeffreys shout from The Bottom Line stage “LA sucks!” I guess that there’s always been a culture contrast and rivalry between the two coasts, and there probably will always be. Me? I’ll always be […]

But, it’s January and many of my music friends are heading south for the annual 30A Songwriters Festival, so this […]
R.I.P.—Franklin TN’s Pizza & Cream
Some half-dozen years ago or so, a pizza joint named Pizza & Cream opened in a strip center off Highway 96/Murfreesboro Road in my hometown of Franklin.
