New Pizza Truck Coming Soon
Our favorite pizza site, Slice, broke the news late yesterday that Midtown’s going to get a new pizza truck from Eddie’s in New Hyde Park. What we know: pizza will be made on the truck, pies only, special toppings including the beloved clam, Midtown three days a week, late May debut, and Ed Levine likes them. What we don’t know: how they will stack up to Jiannetto’s, Papa Perrone’s, or Vinny Vincenz. I promise to do some ‘research’ at the brick-and-mortar store and report back when we know more. Until then, check out their Twitter, the true sign that they mean mobile business.

Susan, apparently they will be making the pizzas on the truck. Word is it is being outfitted with four ovens.

When I said “travels” I meant from the truck to where you’re going to eat it.
Now I’m wondering how long it will take – are they going to be making the pizzas to order?

“beloved clam”? In my youth there was a clam pizza from a place calle “The Roadhouse” in staten island, and we’d drive out from bensonhurst just for their pizza. I have yet to find a clam pizza and can’t seem to convince pizzerias to make one.
Is the “beloved clam” specific to eddie’s / new hyde park, or is there a clam pizza lurking in manhattan/midtown that I’m unfamiliar with?

Beloved clam refers to something else entirely.

Definitely not midtown in general. They do have a clams casino pie, but I’ve never had it.
-
I say beloved clam because Ms. New Haven, Brownie, has introduced to the deliciousness that is a clam pie. And yes, there are clam pies in the city, but I believe none in Midtown.

A pizza oven at a true pizza cooking temp would probably immolate a truck…

The pizza @ Eddie’s is amazing! So excited to have it come to NYC. I know they ship it all over the country so i would imagine it will hold well once cooked on the truck.
Eddies from a truck? I wonder how well this pizza travels. People take it out, so it must be OK, but I’ve always eaten it there, and never take home leftovers because I don’t think they will hold up well.
The pizza is a very, very thin crust. They are generous with toppings – the Eddies special (sausage, meatball, pepperoni, onions, mushrooms, and green peppers) is hard to pick up as the crust groans under the weight of it all.
