The Latest Pizza List

10. Krunch grandma slice
9. Lucali
8. Fascati and Joes
7. Keste
6. Grimaldis
5. Motorino
4. Lombardis
3. Johns
2. Artichoke (though if I was awarding a posthumous award, it would still go to Anselmos)
1. DIFARA...really, who could knock the king from his pedestal. But what is all of this talk about his son franchising!?

Saddened to see Lucali so far down your list. May I make a suggestion? Go to Lucali LATE. Like, 10pm late.

Noting a decline in quality myself, I talked to Mark, the owner. It turns out that he has to crank the oven temps WAY up to keep up earlier in the night and that means the crust is cooked before the toppings have really mellowed and melded the way I think is best. Late at night, the oven's cooled down some, pizzas take longer, and they taste a LOT better.

Give them another try -- it's a pleasant walk down the street. :-)

hi Peter! Thanks for the advice. Yes, I will definitely give it another try. Captain Carnivore still puts it way up on his list too! Nice to see you and your wife this morning.

AB, I'm a NYer now...stay up much later...at least until 11pm;-)
