Reporting for straight up ignorance.
For real though, let me break this down for you newbies to NYC Pizza.
Best Value and Quality: Literally any Dollar Slice.
Best Traditional Slice (w/toppings): Joe's
Best Boogie Slice: Artichoke
Best Pure Pizza Experience (no slices, cash only, Final Destination): Lombardi's
I'm going to the UK in August and she's making me try it, if only so I'll stop making fun of it. We'll see...
In Washington Heights it's goat.
people who say dollar pizza in NYC haven't had real NY pizza.
Just an example. Plenty of amazing places that are doing their own thing.
Nah you guys are being facetious. Lots of people love Artichoke Pizza. I bet you noobs hate pineapple on pizza
You're spoiled man. :) Let me tell you as a San Franciscan: for off-the-street, cheapo, walk-in-and-grab-a-slice, I would *kill* to have something Koronet quality.
Go to Saccone's in New Rochelle if you want good NY style pizza. I would rather get Artichoke in NYC than a dollar slice
I get where you're coming from. Here in Chicago people will cut you if you try putting ketchup on a hot dog and you're over the age of 10.
Pinapple on...man I can't even with this dude...someone take over, I gotta get a decent slice to cancel this travesty out
what if you get everything on it? Ketchup, mustard, relish?
"What if you just throw the hot dog in the trash?"
I don't mind pineapple on a pizza, but I agree with this, it only belongs on a Hawaiian pizza, and that's like a once-every-year-or-two type of pizza to me.
so are you supposed to eat hot dogs plain?
Ham and Pineapple is gross. Pineapple and onion on the other hand..that's delicious.
filthy degenerate
I'm a line cook/chef de partie and I have consumed and even made several times bitter chocolate demiglace for a beef steak, but even I draw the line at some things. Pineapple and ONION? ONION?! This is some fresh hell I was not prepared for.
Oh god... Chicago dogs, my man.
That looks really good. A New York dog is anything from a stand with whatever toppings they have available. Also, any dog that's over priced.Oh god... Chicago dogs, my man.
"Dragged through the garden." Basically every topping you can think of BUT ketchup (and sauerkraut).
T
Yellow mustard, chopped white onions, bright green sweet pickle relish, a dill pickle spear, tomato wedges, pickled sport peppers, and a bit of celery salt on a poppy-seed bun.
Heinz came out with a "Chicago Dog Sauce" once to convert Chicagoans (it was ketchup).
Is there a "New York Dog"?
It's so damn juicy and sweet
A New York dog is a dirty water street dog with mustard and maybe some kraut.Oh god... Chicago dogs, my man.

Ain't no one but tourists buy that overpriced stuff.
Closest would be Nathans over on Coney Island, but lets be real, its nothing special. Hot Dogs aren't exactly our forte.Oh god... Chicago dogs, my man.

That's the thing. I don't mind onion on pizza, I love it. Caramelized? Even better. But it needs the right amount of contrasting savory flavors because sometimes the sauce can have a tinge of sweetness to it as well. Pizza shouldn't have an overbearing sweetness to it. Onion and pineapple jumps overbearing and heads straight to overkill.
Exactly! Although I'm fine with a street vendor italian ice, a slice from your local store and a cup of Marinos is the right amount of comfort food.Get a slice and then....
Throw some garlic powder on and you'll be fine. Give it a shot. Pizza sauce shouldn't be overly sweet. It should have some sugar in it when you make (I've made it at multiple places) but it should not be something immediately noticeable.
My friends don't get me either. Also, give it a shot. It's really (imo) pretty good. My friends have always liked it when they tried it (after making fun of me)
Thin crust, big slice is technically NY style.
I'm not saying it should be sweet, just that if you have the right taste buds it can be noticed. I mean, tomato by default has enough acidity to it that you can feel it in your cheeks(I have no idea how to explain this in English), so if that sense lessens then you can notice the sugar content of a sauce.
Jesus Christ okokok point taken. I yield. Don't go there, Quixzlizx!
Do me a favor and give it a shot. Let me know what you think. Maybe my taste buds are out of whack but everyone I've had try it likes it.
Every place I've worked at hand stretches it and makes sure flour is on the bottom when placing it in the oven. I've never worked at a place that uses a roller or machine roller for thin crust. Nothing really ceremonial about it. You don't have to toss it in the air if that's what you're getting at.
