Post Your Pictures, Part XIX: White Dreadlocks Edition

I like alot of pizza shops in NYC, but I don't find them to be better than the good places everywhere else (I read that Connecticut have some of the best pizza joints in the country).

I heard Chicago has some pretty good pizza.

Fuck that, no. Deep dish is ok but it's not pizza, and when I was living near there I only found two or three places that made really good deep dish, but it's another thing entirely.


Of course Manhattan has some shitty pizza, because just like Chicago a ton of places simply cash in on the stereotype (I can't think of the right word) when, in fact, the best places do exist and are truly better than anything else around.



Boston gets my vote for "Worst Pizza Everywhere."

KOF: Connecticut is part of the Tri-State, which = NY.

NY area has decent Japanese food, but horrible, horrible Mexican.

Good Mexican is hard to find in NYC, but there is one in lower west side (I think) and one excellent place in Forte Greene.

Have you been to southern Brooklyn? It's where the best pizza is.

I've heard CT has some great pizza as well. They're tristate brothers, so I'd believe it.

Pineapple on pizza? GTFO

When I was Illinois I saw blueberry bagels. Also, Tomato Basil. What the fuck? Get right the fuck out of my face with that shit.

mmmm pineapple and onion on a pizza is a good combo.

This is true.
The farther you get from any coast the worse the food gets.

I've never been to NY, so I can only make speculative comments, which (to the people who have been to, and live in NY) won't hold up. But I'm going to stand by what I said with NYers being way to elitist about their food.

This is exactly it. The quantity of amazing pizza places in new york are probably exponentially more abundant than they are in any other city, but the does not mean that you can't find that one place in another city that holds up to those standards.

My pizza is delicious.
You wouldn't know, you've never been to my kitchen.

the bagel store at U of MD has blueberry bagels.

Also, Old Bay Bagels.

They need to die.

If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, sounds like a duck, then it must be a...

I don't get how Chicago-style pizza isn't considered a pizza. It's not a Calzone or any other type of Italian food. In fact, Wikipedia seems to disagree with your theory.

The placement of the cheese and toppings on top make the pan pizza variety similar to a thin-crust pizza with a thicker and larger crust.

I have never eaten pizza in southern brooklyn, but the best pizza shop I have tasted (thus far) in Brooklyn is in Williamsburg (Mezzy's neighborhood).
