I've had veggie pizzas that were surprisingly good. I always get my pizzas with extra sauce. My wife likes spicy hot, pickled jalapenos on hers.
Ranch is great on the right kind of Pizza. In fact, necessary on my fave - Pepperoni, Pineapple, Jalapeno, Feta. But if I want to keep it true, a NY style Marghareta is stupid awesome if done correctly.
I grew up going to Stark Street Pizza....that is their signature "Triple Play" pizza, and I was raised on it....whenever we didn't get Escape From New York. I actually prefer just a cheese pizza. I feel like you can get a good read on how good a place is just by their plain cheese pizza. Rovente is one of my favorites.
Cool. I realized I didn't say what my preference was. A slight crisp mostly chewy. Not the dough isn't done chewy but done just right chewy
How could anyone scoff at a NY style Margharita? It's the purest form of Pizza ever. You can freely disagree with my other choice, but you simply don't know Pizza if you don't masturbate to a NY Margharita like every other night
Last time I visited DiNicolas' I was disappointed, because their pizzas recipe is definitely not the same as it was 20 or 30 years ago. I grew up pretty close to there and they were our family's go to pizza place for years. They still had thick crust pizza, but the crust is lighter, and the toppings, including the cheese, were not as plentiful.
I have to admit I haven’t been there in 15 years, but it used to be my fav for sure. My wife loves American Dream, so that has become our main spot. Love them breadsticks.
When I was a kid in the late 50s, my father used to go to a place in Lake Oswegon called Pepi's. Pepi's later moved to Beaverton. Anyhow, he used to bring hom a pepperoni pizza that Pepi made in a toaster oven. I had never seen a toaster oven before nor had I had pizza anywhere yet. Later, we used to go to Shakey's where we would find signs inside that would say something like "If you think our pizza is weak, you should try our coffee" or something like that. We'd always get pepperoni, mushroom and black olive. I loved my dad's company so maybe that's why I love those pizzas today.
