    As much as I love Jon Stewart, NYC has the worst pizza in the country. Don’t get why people love a limp pizza with the wrong ratio of bread/sauce/cheese. I’ve had better school lunch pizza than your average New York slice. Chicago style thin crust or Midwestern thin crust, or neapolitan are all worlds better pizza.

      WTF is “Chicago style thin crust?” Or have you mixed that city up with St. Louis?

      If what you’re looking for in a pizza is bread, sounds like you’d prefer Sicilian.

        Chicago style pizza was originally tavern style thin crust. This deep dish nonsense is a modern thing. And I prefer Neapolitan over Sicilian because thinner crust is usually better.

            Not in taste, not in texture/airiness, not on quality what exactly do you believe is similar? They are both pizza! Just to clarify, I walked into this argument fully aware it is subjective. Maybe I’ve just never had good NY pizza when I’m there. If you let me know your favorite NY pizza you swear by, I’ll give it another shot when I’m there. In all honesty I’ve only had it as a tourist as I have family there. Locals usually have a more developed sense of where the best example of something is.

              If you’ve got locals there, ask them next time you visit! I couldn’t tell you where I’ve gotten slices there, as it’s been a while, but it’s always been under the guidance of a local.
