Thread: Pizza., mmmm

My fresh baked pizza is almost out of the oven and will soon be on its way to my arms and empty stomach. This is what happens when my wife is not here to make dinner.

Just go to The Pie!!??? Send me one while you're at it. While The Pie does rock, NY has the best.

Pizza... mmmmmm. Very nice to cut loose from time to time.


I've had pizza in chicago, in NY and all across our great united states (even Hawaii) and I have to say that I prefer NY style.

Now for the a-bomb..... My favorite pizza of all time is a pizza I used to get all the time when I lived in Brazil (didn't seem to matter which state or city, they all made it the same way) Frango Com Catupiry!

This makes me sad. You can't buy good pizza here in Thailand and I don't have an oven.

We have a pizza chain locally called Pontillos and it's the best pizza I have ever had. The crust is even tasty. The crust and the sauce make the pizza.

O.K. now I'm hungry. Time to eat.

Are there any "French" style bakeries?
You can make a tolerable reminder with
French bread, basal, tomato slices and a
l'bit of olive oil (salt, oregano would be OK too).

Mmmm, I would love some pizza. That said though, it's my turn to make dinner tonight, and I'm going to be feeding my flatmates extremely well tonight - I've stolen my mother's recipe book, and will be making her famous beef stew, with dumplings and mashed potato. I love being a decent cook - means I can eat well for little money.

+1 on that. Unless you like corn and mayonnaise on it.

They think if it is white and on a pizza it must be cheese. It isn't even good mayonnaise.

This is a funny story. Back in the 1970s I spent alot of time traveling throughout Japan when I was in the Navy. One weekend I was in Tokyo with a friend and we were having dinner in a little restaurant in the Ginza area and there was this Japanese family sitting at the next table and they were eating some vile looking stuff that I know was supposed to be pizza and they were using chopsticks to eat the stuff.

We were eating some vile stuff that was supposed to be Chinese Food. We were using knives and forks. We were staring at that family and they were staring at us. It was the funniest thing talk about culture shock. I would have loved to have known what they were saying about us and I'm sure they would have loved to have known what we were saying about them.

I'm in New Mexico and though you can get edible pizza here it ain't like the stuff in N.Y or Chicago. I usually make my own.
