Just wait until you’ve heard about the war crime that is Ohio Valley-style pizza

    The only places I’ve heard of that have the balls to speak their names in proximity to NYC and Chicago are Detroit and New Haven, CT.

    Detroit Pizza is fucking great, especially with extra sauce and I haven’t had New Haven pizza but have been told it’s too big of a range to say that it’s all good pizza.

      Why’s everyone snubbing St. Louis?

      Also, what’s New Haven pizza supposed to be? Hot honey? Fuck off with that shit

        New Haven is generally thin crispy crust cooked in a coal oven and a bit charred on top. Basically a NYC pie cooked in a hotter oven. They might do the sauce a bit different, IDK.

        Essentially it’s coal fired at very high temperatures so the crust has a distinct consistency.

      Frank Pepe’s (located in New Haven, CT) is easily the best pizza. I haven’t had a slice in New York that can beat it.

          Nothing, it’s mediocre af.

          I’ve had dollar slices in the Bronx that beat Frank Pepe’s in quality.

              It’s floppy, dry (like not enough sauce), and the crust is too thick. I’d rate the sauce itself, but there wasn’t enough on my pizza to give it a proper rating.

            Why? You neither made a case against Frank’s nor for Zuppardis. Based on your reply, I don’t think I want to touch any place you might go to.

              Frank Pepe and Sally’s have the same general dry floury carbonized crust which some people will fight to the death over. I prefer an olive oil crust, without the black charred air pockets. It’s all preference.
