Manhattan’s Bleecker Street Pizza – Another Page from the Classic Slice Textbook
The time for another trip back to New York City had come upon me. While my pizza planning for the week was still underdeveloped, I had long decided that Bleecker Street Pizza in Greenwich Village would be my first stop. Despite this joint’s slew of “Best Pizza in New York” and celebrity accolades, my visit […]
Crust Pizza–Sewanee, TN’s Place for Cracker-Thin Crust
The Snob recently helped arrange an adventure bringing together the worlds of hiking and pizza. When Bassman Steve suggested we get a group together for a hike in the Tennessee hills, I thought we could tag it with a visit to Sewanee’s Crust Pizza. The “Hike and Pie” event was set on Facebook and 11 […]
Johnny Brusco’s in Birmingham, AL—Is This Really a Chain?
The annual Florida Panhandle vacation was over, and the drive back to Nashville again offered the opportunity for a lunchtime pizza stop in Alabama. This stop, however, would be in Birmingham rather than Montgomery. Based on the recommendation I received on the way down from my new friend at the great Capone’s Pizza and Subs, […]
Florida’s 30-A – Pizza on the Panhandle Update
Last summer on his annual vacation to the Florida Panhandle, the Snob set out to visit all the pizza joints on or around County Highway 30-A, the two-lane beach road stretching 10 miles from Santa Rosa Beach on the west to Rosemary Beach on the east. This update to last year’s report finds me at […]
Great Pizza and Fun at Millbrook, AL’s Capone’s Pizza & Subs
Looking for a place not too far off the interstate on our way to the Florida Panhandle (30-A) for Mrs. Pie’s and my annual beach vacation, the Snob selected a relatively new joint on the outskirts of Montgomery called Capone’s Pizza & Subs. Capone’s is only three miles east of I-65 just north of Montgomery […]
Cool Springs Brewery—A Reinvented Pizzeria in Franklin (TN)
It was a lazy Saturday night, and no one in the house felt like cooking. Ah! The perfect opportunity for the Pizza Snob to have a local pizza adventure. So, The Philosopher and I hopped in the car and journeyed over to Cool Springs Brewery, located in a strip center in the Cool Springs shopping […]
Caesar’s Italian Restaurant – Late Night Disappointment in Downtown Nashville
When searching for something to eat late at night in any major city, you can almost always find a pizza joint still open somewhere downtown. One recent Saturday night feeling a bit hungry after a Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds concert at the Ryman Auditorium, I thought I’d give Caesar’s Italian Restaurant a try. […]
A Snowy Saturday at Salvo’s Pizza in Smyrna (TN)
On a lazy March Saturday at my local Starbucks blogging table, I read a comment from one of my readers recommending Salvo’s Pizza in nearby Smyrna, a bustling little town southeast of Nashville. It piqued my interest since Salvo’s owner was founder of both Sal’s Pizza and the former Hickory Hollow Mall’s Pizza Picnic. With […]
Brixx Wood Fired Pizza – Staying Simple Can Be Appetizing
You would think that I’d pick pizza every time it was my turn to choose the restaurant for our family’s Sunday lunches, but I seldom do. Joints within reasonable striking distance are not up to The Snob’s standards. However, one of our frequent picks is Brixx Wood Fired Pizza. My family first became attracted to […]
Broadway Pizza Walk (Bayonne, NJ) Part Three: Mona Lisa Pizzeria and Mario’s Pizza
On my recent trip home, I had time for one last pizza adventure and decided to further explore the pizza in my hometown of Bayonne, NJ (see Part One and Part Two). I started out early on a Monday morning with Mona Lisa Pizzeria, a full service Italian restaurant located in the Bergen Point area. […]
