Is New York style pizza really all that?

I hear native New Yorkers downplay anything outside of NYC or Jersey all the time. Personally, I think our CT Pizza places are pretty good, Frank Pepe's Apizza being one I'd put against any pizza in any state.

But I've never had this mythical New York pizza, so wondering if anyone here has some experience with it.

I will say this though:


i've had New York bagels. They are indisputably far, far superior to anything from CT. They just are.

pizza tastes better when it's not made poorly and with crappy ingredients and fake mozzarella. you can find good pizza anywhere if you're willing to go out of your way and pay more, but in the NY metro area you don't need to travel far or pay out the ass for good/real pizza.

We need more food threads in the GDF.

I'm from Jersey and can confirm we have top-notch pizza.

Especially our calzones or panzarottis, you have not lived until you've had that cuisine.

The ones that are covered in garlic and when you're done you get the sauce all over your fingers, MMM, damn good.

I could do one on ultra spicy foods.


The beauty of being a spice addict is no one ever steals your lunch.

Shouldn't this be in the off topic.

I really enjoy Domino's Brooklyn Style pizza.

The only pizza I eat is dominos and little ceasers. It's like 10 bucks for a large.

Little Caesars and Dominos are both very good and cheap.

On a couple of occasions I've heard that pizza from that area being superior is due to the water table there, it somehow improves the flavour of the dough. Not sure how true that is.
