No, basically what we're arguing over is an OP who apparently doesn't live anywhere near New York City (look at his public profile; he lists an Arkansas zip code!), but who has some fairly derogatory opinions about our hometown. If there's something New Yorkers care about, he pops up to tell us why we're so off base.

As we say, waddaya gonna do?

I am rather confused. What you are showing is Napoleon styled pizza. Not "Brazillian Style Pizza". Yes this type of pizza happens to be the norm in brazil, but it is not "brazilian pizza", they didn't start/invent it there.

Just like if you eat a cheese stake in anywhere that's not Philidelphia it's still called "Philidelphia cheese stake".

Except in Transylvania where it is called a Philadelphia Cheese Steak, to not scare off potential customers.

Haven't read all of the posts on here so I don't know if it's been mentioned yet but Rosa's pizza in Ridgewood on Fresh Pond Rd. off Metropolitan ave is one of the best pizzas i've tasted in a long time... The cooks are italian but the guys that take the orders are spanish. Mixed restaurant but from what I can tell gets packed at almost all times of day... And the place is huge to begin with...

I miss BullBoxer31 Pizza. I use to go there at least 3 times a week when I lived in Ridgewood.

Whoever thinks Grimaldi's pizza is good must have dead taste buds. That pizza is missing something and that absence leaves it almost tasteless. There is a pizzeria in Park Slope that has the taste Grimaldi's is missing. If only I could remember it's name.
