Thanks for the recommendations...
I'll try them this weekend. I think that Mozza is popular due to the hype and association with Batali and Silverton. The stuffed zucchini blossoms were great. I guess we really should do a Purist Foodie taste test day in Los Angeles...... -MW
Favorite pizza places?
What's your favorite pizza of all time? I just came back from Chicago, IL for a business trip and had a chance to sample some deep dish Chicago style pizza. I've been to the usual places like Giordano's, Gino's East, and Pizzeria Due but this time I decid...
YUMMY!
Your picture almost makes me want to fly to Chicago just to eat the pizza, heh. I have to say that one of the best pizzas I ever had was at Tra Vigne in Napa Valley. But I will always love the big thin slices from the little mom and pop shops in New York.
Here in Los Angeles...
Hi Ping, Here in L.A. Pizzeria Mozza by Mario Batali and Nancy Silverton is supposed to be the best pizza. I thought it was good but not great. Out in the valley is Antonio's pizza and of course I love Melrose Bar & Grill's thin pizza. I went to Akasha in...
Pizza in LA
Hi Ming! We tried Pizzeria Mozza too not too long after it opened and I agree with you, good but not spectacular. Osteria Mozza next door was ten times better. We sat at the mozzarella bar which I think is the best seat in the house. We were able to watch...
Little Toni's in North Hollywood
is great pizza--if you like it thin. I have yet to find Truly Marvelous Pizza in LA, but Georgios in Studio City is also excellent for thick crust. Bon Appetit. BTW, agreement here that Mozza is only so-sozza.
That looks really yummy.
Deep dish is getting too greasy for me as I get older I have to agree with Ping about the NYC mom and pop stores. I'll always remember Ben's Pizza on Spring Street in Soho.
Irresistable pizza...
...from small town of Monteveglio Italy. Traditional thin crust pizza in Italy is delicious too. I guess baked dough with tomatos, and cheese is good in almost any form. This message has been edited by pingtsai on 2008-05-24 21:51:38...
When I ate my first slice in Venice Italy...
it put all slices before it to shame... and it was just 'some place' in Venice. It was very thin and seemed to have very little cheese and sauce on it, YET the flavor was sublime and at the same time, filling and comforting... Ah Italy is Heaven.
Ahhhh Venice
My wife and I love Venice, and I can't wait till my daugthers are older so we can take a family trip there. Cheers, Anthony
