[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t even think people even know what the mean when asking for good NY Pizza. If Andy’s or Wiseguys were in NY people would be raving about and complaining they can’t get the same in DC.

I’d love to see all these NY Pizza experts do a blind taste test. [/quote]

My standard for a slice is the Rays at 6th Ave near 8th.  My standard for a pie is John’s on Bleeker.  I haven’t been to either in a few years, but haven’t had pizza that’s close to that here.  My pizza standards were also set in New Haven, so I liked Pete’s when I had it a few years ago, and haven’t yet tried Pepe’s.  I don’t eat pizza much, but I’m open to trying it if it’s good, and I’m not picky about the style. Yay: Timber.

PP, I’d be happy to do a blind taste test.  Lol. This thread actually reminded me that I did one with coworkers using Coke from different regional bottling plants.  We nailed it. [/quote]

do we know each other?  these were my pizza joints in the late 80s/90s.  I took my son to John’s a couple years ago.  He didnt get the charm, sadly…[/quote]

Maybe we do! The late 80’s through the mid 90’s were my prime pizza-in-the-Village years.  (After that I shifted to Rafetto’s tortellini and Ollie’s dumplings.) Is it awful that my first thought was: How wonderful that you took your son to John’s!  But my second was: Bummer, but more slices for you!   lol.   I have tried the pizzas more recently— but pre-COVID, and was happy to find that they were just as good as I remembered.

John’s - NO SLICES![/quote]
