Wow, a real loss! i too grew up on sal and carmine’s way back to it’s 95th st locale. and when it moved uptown, i always faithfully walked uptown past many other pizza joints to get my slice on 102nd. the last time i was there ’bout a year ago Sal was manning the ovens and gave me a smile that made me feel like he remembered me. he was the best and that pizza- nothing better!!!

Unquestionably the thing I miss most from NYC is the pizza…it’s just impossible to get a real slice here!

[20] head to State College! i know there are like 5 Brother’s Pizza’s, and somehow, they’re all different establishments w/ different owners. but the “main” on College Ave., is unreal!!! if that fan is blowing outside when you walk by, you can’t walk past without going in – even if you’re on a full stomach!!!

[21] i don’t think i get it PJ! : ~ (you have to remember: i’m slow…)

For me, I include the whole state in terms of NY pizza. There was one place where I grew up in Middletown, Tony Boffa’s (IIRC) that had the best pizza. There are a couple of Italian restaurants in Newport News VA that come close, but aren’t 100% there. Haven’t set foot in the city in probably 15-20 years, sad to hear that good bagels are a rarity now as well. What’s next, the Disneyification of Times Square?

BTW, at the end of the month I’ve gotta go to Vermont, anyone know of a good pizza place in Glens Falls (Probably going to stop there overnight) or thereabouts?

Speaking of local pizza, I might add that New Haven pizza is (famously) delicious, but it’s not the same style as good old-fashioned NY pizza of my yout’.

My own little personal Top 5:

1. Grimaldi’s
2. L&B Spumoni Gardens
3. John’s of Bleecker St.
4. Lombardi’s (mostly for the clam pie)
5. Salvatore’s of SoHo (even though it’s in Riverdale)

a tip if you’re looking for great pizza in your local area – check out the minimalls. The rent is cheap, so little mom and pops will start there. I looked for good pizza in Portland OR for nearly a year before I found near-NY quality pizza in a crap-looking joint near the airport.
