    For me it’s Saverios in Massapequa new york

    light, thin wood flavor. I enjoy all varieties ( foldable Ny slice, thin crust, deep dish) but their style best imo. When I go to Croatia/Italy I get that thin personal usually with ham/mushroom…in heaven after a swim in the Adriatic 
    I had two amazing pizzas when I was in Croatia. I loved all the food I had there. 

    Wish I were there now, my mom, sister, nieces, brother in law all there now…. I got stuck looking after (2) houses and a Boston terroir 😬

    need to get over there next year, it’s a different life over there for sure compared to NY life

    they have amazing pizza , there is a place near where my parents grew up that keep milk crates of Pepsi/ coke in the river… when you order one they yank the crate out and serve you… it’s ice cold, it’s a nice touch. Up in the mountains near Split. Wood flavor pizza is the best

    Is it really a pizza in Croatia or a flat bread? I have had some amazing flatbreads (US and abroad) that I would not call pizza.

    Ok I trust those opinions. I grew up in CT and am spoiled by Apizza and greek style. I even found the pies in Naples to be sub par (but that was 10 years ago).

    Top three favorite pies for me. It s a tomato pie from  Maurcas in asbury park. I was a few hundred yards away from where pj played at sea hear now.  It was hot out of the oven with zero flop.   
    I'll ride the wave where it takes me......

    how is that different from a “plain” (i.e. cheese and sauce) pizza?

    Home - Saverio's Authentic Pizza (saveriospizza.com)

    This is my go to as mentioned a few times in this thread, I have no affiliation with this place. ...I just find their pizza to be above & beyond pretty much all else. Nice Family operation, they were on the food network a bunch, Use great ingredients, lil pricey but you taste the difference for sure. The owner has some fancy lil oven, they are in a pork store  ;) I use to live nearby and get on weekly basis, now here & there when visiting my mom

    I never remember to take a picture of my pizza, but this is the best thread on the board for lurking. Yum.
