I lived in Little Italy on Hester St just down from Umberto’s. Is Luigi’s on Mulberry between Hester and Canal still there? It has been 25 years, but I can still taste the droplets of garlic floating in the atmosphere as I walked in the door.

il Forno on the corner of 20th and 3rd in Manhattan is by far the best typical “New York” pizza that I’ve had i’m from NYC. Its simple tried and true crust and toppings are the best. Its prices reasonable and quality predictable. I don’t know if this pizza places normality is out of fear as the local Police Academy is adjacent and frequents the venue or what, but I can say that I’m never disappointed. Nothing Fancy, just good. The way pizza should be.

correction: it’s ventoto (28) on 28 carmine street. I promise the only reason you haven’t heard of it is because its too new for word to have gotten out yet.

You forgot the best pizza in Manhattan: Ventuno (21) on 21 Carmine street in the village. It’s the most like the real Napoli pizza I’ve had in Manhattan. John’s Pizzeria on 278 Bleecker is worth noting. Also, Fascati pizza in Brooklyn heights is my favorite by-the-slice place I’ve been to so far. 80 Henry Street.

When you get to Chicago, I’ll have to take you to Spacca Napoli in the Ravenswood district. Jonathan Goldmoth, the owner, is a pizzaiolo as well and a wonderful one at that!

Franks on 23rd between Lex and Park — a little thicker crust, sugary sauce and the guys where red and white striped shirts. It is small and it is a hole and the CUNY kids are all over the place but if I am walking by, I’m stopping and I am always happy I did.

But Lucali in Carrol Gardens is a blast for a more dining experience.

I recently tried Fornino on Bedford Avenue in Williamsburg for the first time, which was pretty excellent by New York standards. It has a garden which reminded me of New Black Cat in Arezzo, possibly my favorite pizzeria in the world, run by a hyper-active man named Valerio (my Dad calls him “The Great Valerio” after a Richard Thompson song).

For authentic Italian-style pizzeria chaos, I prefer Luzzo’s on First Avenue: they have Italian MTV and bottles of Menabrea (my all-time favorite Italian beer and perhaps easier to find in New York than it is in Italy)!
