What does TONY know about Pizza???
I don’t eat a ton of Pizza for lunch, so I haven’t written about too many pizza places. In my view, it’s hard to go horribly wrong ordering a slice of pie in this city. Sure there are better slices than others- but there aren’t too many horrible slices- even in Midtown. And if you think that isn’t true- try living in L.A. for two years. One of the only decent slices I had there was from a place that claimed to fly their water in twice a week from New York City… and it wasn’t even that good. Of course, if you are crazy enough to fly your water in from another city just to make pizza, you are creating expectations that are going to be too great to overcome. (“Really? They flew in water from New York and it tastes like this???”)
Well, if you are one of those people who only eats the “best” pizza this city has to offer Time Out New York has just released their Pizza issue. Ironically enough, I was planning on writing about Two Boots today- the New Orleans/Italy (hence the “Two Boots”) pizza place with locations all over NYC (and two in Midtown)… but it wasn’t even mentioned (not even in the “Oddball” category). Anyway, New Yorkers love arguing about what’s the best pie in the city. In fact, the “Best Hamburger” argument that has been raging lately is probably just people who got sick of arguing about the best slice. Rather than re-hash it all, I’ll just point out the Midtown slices worthy of Tony’s mention.
The list, after the jump…
