/ck/ - Food & Cooking

I don't like the cornmeal on the crust, it's like eating pebbles

>>20279152
You come across as a connecticut cunt and nobody cares about your bullshit

>>20279889
It's a NYC/NJ place and they have one in Nashville

>>20279152
That comes across as so faggy that you dont quite understand, that's very connecticut

>>20279893
What the fuck does nashville have to do with ny?

>>20279895
Samefag
>>20279903
What does it need to? It's just a coincidence, I don't know

>>20279893
What the fuck does nj have to do with ny?
It's like you people are retards or something.

>>20279908
You know it tells me that you're the same person replying multiple times right?

I'm just listing the places where the locations are. None of those places have anything to do with each other except that they all have Two Boots Pizza. I'm not really sure what part of that statement is upsetting you.

>>20279920
Two boots pizza, that shows that you're a total faggot likely from san francisco totally from california.

>>20279920
Do you wear sketchers and vans?

>>20279152
lol. we have one of these in my neighborhood and nobody goes there except clueless tourists or people that are just hungry and don't care. it's average to below-average pizza and I'm sure the only reason they're still open is the location, they're right on 7th ave.

Joe's and Bleecker Street Pizza are also in the area and a thousand times better

>>20279152
>2 bigots pizza

>>20279907
I suspect that nobody needs to know about crappy connecticut pizza, it could be worse it could be chicago or new jersey pizza.

>>20279950
Have you even gone in there and tried the Grandma Bess? I'm not a tourist and it's the best pizza ever, I've tried them all a million times and I'm just telling you the truth. It sounds like you're turning up your nose because of the style being inauthentic to the region and not really judging it fairly on taste.

>>20280059
I’ve tried a few of their slices. Don’t remember if that was one of them. But they didn’t impress me and the plain cheese slice — my barometer for whether a pizzeria is worth my time — was underwhelming. I turn my nose up at them simply because I have better places nearby

>>20279950
That looks so faggy that it needs to be near a coffee shop in connecticut.

>>20279950
I've only ever been to a two boots because I was dragged there by a couple of deep brooklyn nuyawkahs who thought it was the coolest thing ever, I think you might be trying too hard because you are trying to prove you're not a transplant

When I was a kid I used to have a cat that would turn it's tail up and then walk away from connecticut freaks.

>>20280151
Similar for me with five guys, I went there once because for work. Never again, a few others also, but never more than once.

>>20279152
Fuck you, post a picture of the food or kys. I won't eat there now just out of spite.

>>20280172
What kind of faggot takes pictures of fast food?

>>20279920
The best places are local joints in Manhattan, usually lower east side. If it's some chain place then it's guaranteed to suck shit and made for tourists.

>>20280172
It’s honestly not that great, you’re not missing much

>>20280192
Even a rat wouldn't carry that away.

>>20279152
>misread this as "two bigots' pizza"
brb, gotta write a businessplan

>>20280192
That looks like some horrible shit from sbarro

>>20280190
yup, although even some of the local places are trying to do multiple locations.

Joe’s is still legit
Bleecker Street Pizza
Patsy’s (the one in East Harlem)
Scarr’s but you have to get them on a good day
Pop’s on 57th
Funzi’s
L’industrie opened a location in the WV, good stuff
NY Pizza Suprema by Penn
Prince Street Pizza

>>20280203
and for whole pies

John’s on Bleecker
Arturo’s
Lombardi’s is touristy yes but still excellent
Denino’s (there’s one in the village, no need to go to SI)

>>20280203
That's all bullshit from movie crap and clearly you never grew up in NYC.

>>20280208
Lol most of those places haven’t even been in movies. Quit talking out of your ass

>>20280209
No they get written about in "the new york times" which is even worse, they're paid for for that shit. Are you daft or something?

>>20280216
Sigh

Just telling people about some good pizzerias in my city, turn the info over in your diseased antisocial brain and do with it what you will

>>20280209
Clearly you've never worked for a publishing company and don't realize that they get paid to write articles that work for their advertisers.

>>20280221
The best pizza joinrts are in NYC, Manhattan. Debate me all you want and you'll loose.

>>20279152
the sloppy slices I used to buy at Grand Central Station and shove down my throat on the train? I dont think so.
I've tasted most pizzas in the country that routinely get called "the best" and most of them are all good in different ways but I think the one that truly stands out is Lucali.
Also RIP Great Lake in Chicago the true GOAT

>>20280229
I.. don’t care? I’m just telling people about the places I personally like. You can ramble on about whatever else though

>>20280239
Lucali is legitimately great I just wish they were less of a PITA to eat at

>>20280239
Jesus christ I'd make sweet love to that pie

>>20280239
I used to go around 2014 all the time and if you showed up almost anytime you'd usually have to wait an hour or so and then you were good. I've heard its an absolute nightmare now.

>>20280241

>>20280274
Yeah I only ever go to well-known places like that on like Tuesdays or Wednesdays now, as early as possible after they open

>>20280190
It's not a chain

>>20280046
that's what i thought too lmao *shits*

>>20280192
Try posting a picture that isn't intentionally manufactured to look bad

>>20279152
Two Boots fucking sucks in either city

I used to eat at the one in Grand Central every time I went downstate. I always thought they were just the one location. OP is right, they have solid Cajun pizza toppings.

>>20281253
and yet they can’t do a plain cheese slice worth a damn

>>20280575
You should try it too

>>20279152
anyone who uses the word pie in reference to pizza automatically has their opinion discarded

>>20281287
It's literally a pie though

What a coincidence, I'm here rn

>>20282021
a bowl of cereal is literally a salad though

>>20279161
it's semolina but an understandable mistake

>>20282062

>>20282068
ok I made an assumption and that made an ass out of me

>>20280046
Now that’s somewhere I’d eat

>>20282028
Lick the piss off my shvantz, you Jersey piece of shit

>>20280239
I was thinking and I bet Lucali was a fluke and the origin story is bullshit. Dude opened a pizzeria as a mob front and he just lucked in to making a good pizza and here we are.

>>20279152
>crawdad
it's a Crayfish you imbecile. I don't give a fuck what a bunch of bayou-dwelling retards call it. It's a crayfish

>>20279152
It's absolutely delicious and wonderful and perfect. I'm so so so glad to live near a Two Boots.

Also, their garlic knot sliders are excellent.

>>20279161
You're a fucking idiot. Die.

>>20279950
Joes is floppy sloppy trash and Bleeker is nothing special. If you were going to name another place in the area, name John's.

>>20282028
What's up fellow Jersey City anon

I'm moving to Connecticut soon. What other restaurants should I try?

>>20279152
>best pizza
>pies
Which is it? Pizza or pies?

Sounds delicious OP but I'll be enjoying a yummy Dollar Fifty slice (formerly known as a dollar slice) when I go into the city.

>>20279152
I lived above one of them in the East Village for a year. It was alright.

>>20283196
Let's hang out. Are you Indian?

>>20283549
that's a 99% no, and no.

I threw up Two Boots everything pizza while on a college tour in binghamton the next day after staying at my friends place and playing Risk for 4 hours. I've had their pizza since then and it's just okay, as someone else said, they really overdo the cornmeal on the crust and I don't care for that. RIP Luigi's on 8th avenue between 55th and 56th next to the wendy's (it's now some bullshit gyro place or another fucking smoke shop idk). They had the best chicken salads.

>>20283196
>Joes is floppy sloppy trash and Bleeker is nothing special
opinion discarded

>>20279903
We get a bunch of y*nkee transplants who are fleeing the state/city they ruined to come down here and ruin our state/city
The pizza is mid by the way, I work two blocks away from it.

>>20280239
>the one that truly stands out is Lucali
Going by that picture, they might actually have something. Can't tell from the pic how far up the scale towards GOAT it is, but it's not pathetically dull like most US pizza (and most pizza in the rest of the world too, Toby Faire).
Great pizza requires travel unless you're really lucky.

>>20284145
Have you been recently? I think Joes has fallen off a lot. We used to order several pizzas from there weekly for an event so I'm familiar with the freshest, best Joe's pie. It's not what you get if you order a slice in 2024 (that'll be 5$, cash only)

I have probably the most educated opinion on NY pizza having lived here for such a long time

My favorite places:

Gotham Pizza on 76th and York
10th Avenue Pizza
Percy's Pizza
Best Pizza on Havemeyer
Carmine's on Graham
Saba's on UWS

And rest in peace to my favorite place which closed, PQR

>>20285501
Percy's is not that good and the guy is a dick. You're delusional.

>>20285508
Formerly the best dollar slice in the city. It is a nostalgia place now for me. I once dined in and ate a whole pie!

>>20285511
We didn't ask for your broken dreams.

>>20285520
It's too late for that. My favorite Chinese restaurant is the old Cottage on UWS before they moved locations. Free boxed wine with every meal!

>>20285524
Meanwhile La Caridad on UWS got shut down for abusing their staff... good times
At least I still have the duck sesame pancakes at Vanessa's Dumplings.
