Everyone chill out

[Snapolit1]

The word is officially out.

[Exhibitman]

Well, there goes the neighborhood.

Wine, art and cards? How about pizza, blow and hookers?

When has Nicole ever said anything? Whoops, maybe this post belongs in the new Hijack thread by the watercooler.

[Casey2296]

That is some really poor advice.

I would put money in chicago deep dish pizza. In 60 years it’s the first conceivable good use I’ve ever heard of for that abomination.

[Peter_Spaeth]

To tie this back to baseball:

Waiter to Yogi: Do you want your pizza cut into 6 slices or 8?
Yogi: Better make it 8, we're hungry.

Then again, you probably grew up on White Castle.

That thick crap isn't pizza. It is a pie of some sort. If you can't pick it up and fold it, it is not pizza. If a rat can't drag it down to the subway it isn't pizza

[Peter_Spaeth]

That’s about the fate that slice deserved.

[brianp-beme]

No one ever talks about medium crust pizza. Doesn't it have a fan base of its own?

[Brian Van Horn]

We're safe. Reported by CNN. No, I don't watch FOX.

Western NY definitely a medium dish area.

Detroit style has gotten quite popular in recent years. Thicker than NY, different cheese, comes in a square pan. Is not a 4 inch casserole made of 10% cheese and 90% sauce/soup/slop that Chicago deep dish is.

[Aquarian Sports Cards]

I'm a fan of traditional NY pizza having grown up in North Jersey. I do like an occasional Sicilian pie too.

[cannonballsun]

I'm definitely a fan of Sicilian pizza.
I think all pizza is good, just some is better. There's no such thing as bad pizza.

You haven't been to Shakey's. Cardboard with ketchup. But at least they made baseball cards.

Adam, Wayne did say bad pizza. Not sure I would call that pizza.
Remembering something about calling a dog's tail a leg and such.

Perhaps It would better be termed a "pizza-like substance"?

[bbcard1]

There was an excellent Freakonomics podcast on the art market. It's very thin at the top and if something doesn't sell, it just goes back in the vault. While this alleviates reduction of value, it kills liquidity.

[Peter_Spaeth]

In my youth, I frequently went with my brother to Shakey's all you can eat lunches and miraculously survived.

You could literally put money IN the pizza and in 60 years it will still be there bc it's gross

I spend 90% of my money on pizza, blow, and hookers. Waste the other 10%.

I did have the pleasure of eating Shakey's pizza a few times. I believe it was back in the 70's. I'm not going to say it was great, but it was definitely better than no pizza.
I did have an iron stomach when I was young. No longer.

[BioCRN]

This thread has gone in interesting directions. Anyway, another Shakey's card because why not?

As a New Yorker in California, I call the pizza out here "thick bread with a whisper of sauce on top." When my sister flew out a couple of years ago, she 'smuggled' half of a pie from Little Vincent's in Huntington, LI in her luggage...and that became (still is) the happiest day of my life. I gotta say, the closest thing to actual NY pizza around here is what you get at Costco. And it's frickin' cheap. Two reasons to love it!!

Try Prime Pizza (https://primepizza.la) or Mulberry Street (https://www.mulberrystreetpizzaofbeverlyhills.com/). Both do a first-rate thin crust slice.

Barone's http://www.baronesfamousitalian.com/ and their rectangular pizza (shaped like a 47 Bond Bread) tastes great. Have not been there in decades however.

Best thin crust pizza I had was in Brooklyn at this hole in the wall on Flatbush and something another. Has been there since the 40s. Ended up eating there once a day for the entire week I was in Brooklyn.

The costco za here in mn is gross! So greasy and heavy. Nothing like good east coast za.

[Exhibitman]

Barone's makes a decent grandma pie (ask for it well done) and as a bonus is in the restaurant where they shot the date scene in Fast Times At Ridgemont High, when it was a restaurant called The Matterhorn Chef.



We used to go to Barone's all the time, until Mulberry Street opened.

Best pizza I ever had was in NYC at Rocky Lee's Chu Cho Bianco (RIP).



Sinatra used to order his from there when he was in town. Right up there as well was Mimi's on Lexington between 84th and 85th (RIP).



Bobby Flay got his start working there and it was Paul McCartneys go-to pie. My daughter lives in the village and likes John's on Bleecker St. I like that too but it is too much of a rugby scrum to order. I want a slice, not an elbow in the kidneys.

How is https://mymidici.com/ I heard they make a good one. Never had Mulberry but when I am in that area again I will check them out.

[Exhibitman]

That looks like traditional Neapolitan, not NY thin crust. We have several very well-reviewed Neapolitan places here in LA but I am not a fan. Tastes soggy, bland and bready to me.

What can I say? My tastes are a product of my hometown...

Every place has its strengths. Street and fusion tacos are the bomb here in LA, but it is really hard to find a decent taco in NY and no one does adobado or guisado, just grilled. My cousins ordered from a supposedly top-caliber taqueria in Brooklyn when I in town last month and it had pre-made tortillas that it didn't even grill on the plancha before serving. Kludgy mess by the time we got them. Amateurs.

[Jay Wolt]

Love the pizza talk on a baseball card board, great combo

Here's a Pro's Pizza Ernie Banks (not mine)

Barones was also used in the recent Movie "Licorice Pizza", which was filmed all over the Valley. Let's not forget the place Frank used to eat at regularly on Magnolia, down the street from you. JOE PEEPS. Lido/Chi Chis has a great old school Italian pie too.
