Good Slice of Pizza (Raleigh, Cary: appointed, hotel, university)

[quote=NewUser;26446446]OK. I'll just come out and say it.

New York style pizza sucks! There. Got that off my chest. Let's move on to the next thread



Oh boy, another hater...shocker!

You can get better pizza by accident in NJ than you can in most states following a thorough search.

It would seem pizza from Italy is also terrible compared to NYC pizza

Love these pizza threads that pop up about every 3 months!

There is a place on Six Forks Road, near Newton Road...used to be called Furgettaboutit. Folks from NY own it. I think they changed to Cosmo Brothers or something like that. Anyway...my mom is from da'bronx and she swears it tastes just like NY pizza to her. I'll agree.

There is also a place off Hwy. 70 near the Garner/Clayton line called...New York Pizza! Tastes good, as well. Also run by New Yorkers.

My mom also says the reason NY pizza is better is due to the water. She says the same thing about the bagels!

And...my mom still has pickles shipped to her from NY!!!

Thank you! Implying that something that isn't NYC style is not "real" pizza is patronizing, even for New Yorkers. If you want "NY Pizza", call it that, not "real" pizza, because not everyone agrees with your definition!

"Where in the triangle can you get a slice of pizza that most resembles what you are used to getting in NY?" (that is really your question without the associated condescension).

Yes, this is apparently what the OP meant.

I would think that All matters of taste are subjective.

I feel like I'm in Lake Wobegon, where all the children are above average---

Nope, that's Chapel Hill

I think if one of the the pizza places that is considered some of the best in NY would open a shop here they would make a killing.. Ship the water down here if necessary.

I do think the water thing is funny since most of NYC's water gets pumped in from NJ aquifers. Maybe it's all the extra groundwater pollution that makes it taste so good.
