*”I believe there’s good pizza everywhere. You just gotta find it.”* -Paul DiAgostino @5:18 👏 Preach, brother. Finally. Too many people try to claim otherwise.
I grew up on House of Pizza & Calzone. Fried calzones are the best! When we moved from south Bklyn we found DaVinci’s. Also delish. Now I live in Florida and can’t find anything close.
i feel bad for anyone watching this not from nyc. i can hop on the subway or walk to an any of these places right now and be eating delicious pizza in less than an hour.
I liked this list i want to try new things tbh I was surprised L&B Spumoni Gardens in Brooklyn wasnt on here cause theyre def known for their square slice too. However, it was nice seeing some places I’ve never been to before
that first place was not messing around, they were taking on the big boys and to be honest, fair play to them. they were all better slices than ive ever had in my life, time to book a flight to new york lol
There is an art to making pizza. That is what tastes so good about it and doesn't get old. It is simple ingredients put together the right way. The people who make it just to make money don't make it right. You have to really appreciate what you are doing. All those slices looked really interesting and like they had something in favor of them. Some places buy the fanciest equipment and get certified in Italy and whatever but their pizza isn't great. I think it is the time and care that makes it special.
Sicilian, grandma, detroit, pan... whatever style it is, nothing beats that thick square slice with the cheese and sauce mixed together in multiple layers... it's kinda like how lasagna works, imo
Other states say NY Style Pizza.... No Way!! NY Pizza can't be duplicated in other states.. No others have that NYC Water... It's what makes our bagels and Pizza one of a kind!!
That's kind of weird to keep you here saying that you don't want Char on the bottom of the pizza. One of the best Sicilians I've ever had was from a pizza place in Williston Park and my friend that shared it with me loved it for two reasons. The first was the cheese Incorporated in the dough and second was the nice char on the bottom. If the pizza is not at least 2 in thick then it's just a regular pizza in a square shape. A dense square pizza is not Sicilian. Sicilian needs to be baked for 25 minutes to get that big fluffy piece of delicious dough with all the air bubbles.
This info is a Godsend. I literally had the worst Sicilian slice yesterday. Ugh. (Far Rockaway). Thank you NBR and Delish for this. I will take the drive and seek out Atleast one of these spots!
And take that on top, milennials: his grandmother was even meal-prepping before him, and her grandmother before that! Very enjoyable video, celebrating the love of food tradition.
I absolutely adore Spumoni Gardens and throw a birthday party there every summer. sadly we only had the time and budget to do a top 3 and I felt everybody knew about Spumoni so I wanted to highlight some under appreciated gems. But if we get to do more episodes, it would be my dream to just do one long one at L&B!!!!
Yes, it looks more Detroit than Sicily. But really, few people make true Sicilian sfincione in NYC, which uses caciocavallo cheese and a different set of ingredients.
It does have that similarity and you’re probably right. I’m thinking that it might be better than Detroit style because of the higher quality ingredients
@Ilznidiotic First of all Detroit style uses a smaller rectangular pan. More importantly the sauce doesn’t touch the crust. The sauce should only be on top of the cheese.
That first pizza from upside pizza looked exactly like detroit style (coming from someone who lives just outside Detroit). Its that High sided, butter coated pan that gives you those incredibly crispy edges and corners. That 2 inch wall they mentioned. Those are a Detroit style staples. The second and third locations looked more like typical Sicillian. They were sqaure with thicker crust but none of that deep color/browning/crispiness you saw on the first one. The pans were also much wider and shallower than typical detroit style pizza.
@@secbro16 I grew up in NY eating plenty of Sicilian slices and the best ones were always browner and crisp, similar to the 1st one, just perhaps a little thicker like the latter. Not a fan of undercooked pies!
Lots of different pizza styles across the country. Sadly, most of them are gross. The good news is, you can tour NYC and it will take a lifetime to get through all the pizza.
Dude. You would look so cute with a skin fade, keeping the top longer to show off the natural curl pattern of your hair. Don't cut the beard. I have waited for the day that facial hair became cool again.
