I love thin crust pizza there are 2 places on LI that serve it: The pie in Port Jefferson and Sal's in Bayshore. I believe both places are the same family. I am not fond of thick doughy pizza except for Sicilian style.

Thin crust is the only way to enjoy it, IMO! Lets the toppings/sauce shine.

YUM!

I drive by Joe Boccardis all the time. I've never eaten there though. I'll have to remember them next time I want pizza.

And after reading this thread I kind of want pizza tonight for dinner.

Yeah, I think this thread must be an evil plot by pizzeria owners, sucked me right in to pizza for dinner.

Yeah definitely try it. I grew up around Eureka so we'd go get carry out pizza from there a lot.

Quintana Roo. It's full of good Italian Restaurants.

Thanks for the replies. So I gather six thread pages later that the CPK thin crust pizza is actually more the standard in Europe, where as the standard crust thickness in the U.S. is unusually thick over there.

Gotcha.

I thought thin crust is standard here, too. Might be a regional thing. Never had California Pizza Kitchen but crispy looks strange. Is it actually hard?
