New Orleans’ New York Pizza—Not Living Up To Its Name
As he approached his second pizza stop in The Big Easy, the Pizza Snob wondered if these NOLA places read my “Naming Your Pizza Joint” blog. Like Metairie’s Brooklyn Pizza, Uptown’s New York Pizza also employs the biz-wiz of name-checking a location famous for good pizza. Unfortunately, in my opinion, the latter takes that liberty […]
More Music City Pizza – Nashville’s Pizza Perfect Kebob
Pizza Perfect Kebob sits on Granny White Pike across from David Lipscomb University. Located since 1983 on a lone city block devoted to retail, I only recently made my first trip there. If the name surprises you, I am told that their owner is brother to Pizza Perfect’s owner who sports two Nashville locations! (I […]
More Music City Pizza – Angelo’s Picnic Pizza in Antioch, TN
My friend Frank the OT lives on the east side of Nashville near Antioch. He is a pizza lover who after reading my Nashville blog entry told me about Angelo’s Picnic Pizza. This was his go-to place along with Sal’s Pizza, and he thinks the owners of these joints are somehow related. So, on a […]
More Music City Pizza – Sal’s Pizza in Brentwood, TN
The Pizza Snob has a simple goal: To visit and review as many of the USA’s pizza places as fast as possible. During times of less travel, I check out Nashville area pizzerias. Luckily for the Snob, the music industry has created a New York to Nashville axis which brings good pizza-makers to town. I […]
Lost in the Supermarket – Eating Pizza at Whole Foods Market, Publix and Costco
“I’m all lost in the supermarket, I can no longer shop happily I came in here for the special offer, guaranteed personality” From “Lost in the Supermarket” by The Clash (1979) When the Snob was a kid, you went to the grocery store to buy groceries–that meant food. You went to the drug store […]
Ringwood Pizza (NJ) – “Psst! – Ask for the Grandma Pie”
Ringwood, actually referred to as a borough, is a lovely little place in beautiful Northern New Jersey’s Passaic County, just a stone’s throw from the New York state border. If you are asking yourself how in the world the Snob got there, here’s how the dots connect. Planning my recent Springsteen trip back to the […]
Jersey City NJ Redux – Paulus Hook Brick Oven Pizza
It is a gross understatement to say that Jersey City has changed from my high school days in the Seventies. Once a predominantly rough and tough urban locale, a large section of the city near the waterfront has been totally transformed over the last few decades. It’s as if lower Manhattan drifted across the Hudson […]
Still Great After All These Years: Pizza at Jersey City NJ’s Three Guys from Italy
It’s time to admit that the Snob was once a preppie, having attended St. Peter’s Preparatory High School in Jersey City, NJ. I somehow managed to overcome those trying years and become the interesting albeit eccentric person that I am today. Four years of my life, nevertheless, were connected to the northern New Jersey metropolis […]
Florida’s 30-A – Pizza on the Panhandle
The Snob can never take a total vacation, so when he and Mrs. Pie headed south to the Florida Panhandle for a week’s stay, he naturally saw it as an opportunity to explore the local pizza joints. After 15 years of vacating to this beautiful place, we are convinced that there are no finer beaches […]
