WE'RE HITTING PIZZERIAS THROUGHOUT THE FIVE BOROUGHS TO CAPTURE THE DISTINCTIVE PEOPLE AND PLACES BEHIND NEW YORK'S QUINTESSENTIAL FOOD.

THIS IS OUR BLOG.
THE BOOK IS IN THE WORKS.
 
“This is part of New York. You cant take away the slice of pizza from the city of New York and the culinary history of this town. It’s part and parcel of who we are. And its non-discriminatory. Gimme a slice of that, gimme a slice of that, gimme a slice now! This is the world that we created. So there are the guys that say ‘I’ll have ten pizzas to go,’ and the guys that say ‘Gimme a slice!’ A little poor urchin like in David Copperfield, but instead of porridge, its ‘Gimme a slice, please.’ We’ve satisfied the need, and Patsy was the master at this, of what the people needed.” - John Brecevich, owner, Patsy’s Pizzeria, East Harlem
