MAFIAoZA’S Franklin, TN–I Still Don’t Dig Their Pizza
One of my favorite places on the planet is the Factory in Franklin. Just a short hike from the brick house I call home, this converted building complex is a popular place full of great local places to eat and shop. In fact, I’m writing this there in a coffee shop before I go visit […]
Rocco’s Pizzeria—A Super Slice and Sicilian in Avenal, NJ
Getting ready to leave the Pizza State, I thought that on my way home from visiting Dad, I had room for at least one last slice. Near the middle of Jersey, my on-line intel led me to a nj.com piece that picked the best pie and two runners-up in each of the state’s counties. The […]
Rose’s Pizza & Pasta—A Great Underground Slice at NYC’s Penn Station

Piscataway’s Stelton Pizza—A Tasty Jersey Slice
My trips back home now involve visiting my Dad and brother in their current residence of Edison, NJ. This neck of the woods is a mix of heavy suburban and light urban living that like most Jersey areas has quite a few family-owned pizza places. The cities also blend together, and you never really know […]
Gloria Pizza—Great Pizza in Forest Hills, Queens
Continuing my short sojourn of pizza in Queens, my next targeted spot, Gloria Pizza, was a place I found on-line that was in Forest Hills. Just a short hop from my earlier slice experience in Flushing, Forest Hills is of course the home of the U.S. Open Tennis Tournament. As for Gloria’s history, they started […]
