Back in the 80s we'd smash the hell out of little Ceasars pizza pizza on a cardboard tray wrapped in paper. Crazy bread and crazy sauce that shit is inedible now. Seems all food went to shit!

It depends on what kind of pizza you want, and where you are in the city. It's not like Ottawa is renowned for its pizza, but Italian pizza is wildly overrated, unless you want to eat nothing but Margheritas.

What are you talking about? There's WAY more options for pizza than traditional Marg pizzas all over Italy.

That's the only thing about Italian pizza that's remotely interesting. Good food is good food, where it's from is irrelevant.

NY water isn't the trick, the trick is making dough in the same room for a century and getting natural yeast in the air. It's why Pizza in Naples beats the fuck outta NYC and Connecticut.

Theres a few niche pizza spots in Texas that were actually good, but theyre harder to find than a good Mexican joint in Canada.

It's better in Naples because of the density of Specialists. And yes all the supporting ingredients and industry are part of this. New York has good density as well obviously with pizza dating back 100+ years in New York and a couple million Italians.

NYC is top 3 food city in the world.. But.. This isn't just pizza right? It's stretches across dozens of cuisines.. You might have one of the top 5 restaurants in 2 dozen different cuisines but it's not a specialist food city the way some others are.

Anyway feel free to tell me I'm wrong lol.

I don't think that's wrong at all. Don't get me wrong NY has some damn good Pizza and great good all around. Specialists is 1 thing but ingredients matter. You see transplants shipping NY water to Florida to make pizza and it's not as good as the original, even using the same techniques. I know there are a TON of variables to good foods, I just think the NYC water thing is way over played. There's tons of places throughout the world with better water and worse pizza.

OK I'm on a 5 week paid sabbatical from work so going to try some of the place he went to. Just got back from Pane Bianco which is the NY slice shop by Chris Bianco of Pizzeria Banco fake. Got the Pepperoni slice which was fucking incredible 9.1! Got the prosciutto pane which was fucking incredible. Aldo since he rated the cookie got that as well as fucking best ever!

If I remember they have two locations? I was in Phoenix a couple years ago and ate there. I'm no pizza aficionado but it was really good

I just remembered why I went there
There was a Netflix episode about it and a bunch of people on it said it's arguably the best pizza in America and certainly on the shortlist of best spots

Never seen the Netflix show but it's been voted best pizza in the US. Their OG place is in downtown Phoenix at Heritage Square sounds like you went to the uptown location. Pane Bianco is their sandwiches and slices shop.

Decided to give Trevor's a second chance it's good but far from the best in the PHX!

Got a Fortaleza Anejo and pepperoni pie and added chili oil1000007584.jpg1000007585.jpg1000007586.jpg!
