    One thing I miss about when I lived on long island is all the AMAZING pizza. Having grown up with it there, I didn't realize that it would not be as good anywhere else, including here in Richmond VA where I moved to 10 years ago.

    Levittown NY
    -Two Brothers: Amazing Sicilian slices. Crust is delicate and fresh, but thick. That's a hard balance to find around her. Also their Baked-Ziti slice is great.

    Westbury, NY
    -Mama Theresa's: They used to have a great Baked-Ziti slice, but now they changed the recipe, and it's actually a little better! They now make it in a pocket, similar to a calzone, but with baked ziti inside... and the outside of the pocket is a little "glossy", so it's just a nice unique "slice".

    Garden City, NY
    -Garden City Pizza: Great Baked-Ziti slice, Grandma slice (like Sicilian but flat), and the other standards. Always have tons of options ready to go.

    Richmond VA:
    -Cozzoli's Pizza in Short Pump is really good, for the area, with a regular and mediterranean slice.
    ADD 5,200 to the post count you see, thank you. :)

    Gino's East in Chicago. If your ever here it is the Deep Dish Pizza of all Deep dish Pizza. What makes it great is they use a corn crust. I think you can even have it shipped/FedEx to you.

    http://www.ginoseast.com/flash.html


    In the Burbs (Bolingbrook and Woodridge) of Chicago PaPa's Pizza. Someting about their tangy sauce to the cheese and crust. There is no pizza even in Chicago that tastes like it.

    I live near a ton of pizza places.

    Chicago>New York

    Pepperoni/sausage combos are great and once in a blue moon I'll get a chicken Parma pizza. It's simply amazing.

    Yeah, Rustica is the only place I really order from. Definitely the best I have had. Don't think they cook it enough though at times.

    I'd agree with that. Almost better left over than fresh. Still great though

    For sure. Definitely the best pizza available.

    Tomato pie and water ice are two things I don't get about Philly.

    Did I ever tell you my *Pizza story*

    I was about a year old. I loved pizza so much that I ate it until I fainted because to me eating pizza was more important than breathing. Although it probably only happened one time, after that time my mom had to instruct any babysitters . . . If Mary faints just put her on her side . . . .

    I still love pizza. PIZZA PIZZA PIZZA HOW I LOVE THEE PIZZA!!!

    For those in north eastern mass ...

    Tony and Ann's - Dracut, MA

    http://www.tonyandannspizza.com/history.html

    It resided in North Chelmsford for about 30 years, but closed after the founder (Tony) passed in the late 90s. After many attempts to get them to reopen, of offers in the millions dollars for the recipe ... the kids finally reopened the place up last year.

    For the first month, lines were up to 1 - 2 hour long!

    One of the animators from the Simpson's was from Chelmsford and the old T&A has been in a few episodes ...

    FP_003a.jpg

    tonyann1.gif

    And as always, only open 3 days a week.

    It's a cult following. It's a unique taste. It's all about the sauce and the cheese. The sauce is *really* sweet and there is a ton of it ... and the cheese is a blend, at least 4 - 5 kinds in there with almost a bitter or sour taste. But the harmony of the two is beyond fantastic. And yes, the only pizza I'd ever want with NOTHING on it, plain cheese for me, thanks!

    tn-tony-and-anns-pizza.jpg

    978 - 251 - 3311 - Same number for the past 30 years ... this number rolls off my brain easier than my SS# or my phone #.

    I'm picky about pizza...pizza is just bread with red sauce and cheese to me.

    UNLESS it's from:

    check out their menu...awesome!
    owned by Italian guys
    they use local ingredients (pepperoni is from Salumi-Mario Batali's dad's place

    I don't get to eat there often...not one near where I live :(

    I gave an 'unless it's from' exception!

    we don't have the plethora of 'good pizza joints' like you do...

    Papa John's
    Pizza Hut
    Dominoes
    Little Caesar's
    :( -that's NOT 'good pizza'

    there is a place that has really good pies...can't remember the name of it right now...right by the montlake cut...it's a hole in the wall place.
