Yep, dig it a bunch and choosing BP's owner to do it was a great choice. The New Haven episode is awesome.

I typically stay in Midtown, although I'm in Lower Manhattan this time around. Honestly, anywhere below Harlem is fine with me, whether they deliver or I need to travel to it. I've tried Joe's Pizza, Baker's Pizza, Underground Pizza (decent, but rarely go over near Wall Street), and a couple other places that were forgettable.
Gotham Pizza is a good spot and they have a few locations, including one not too far from Suprema. I don't like Suprema as the sauce is too sweet for me but YMMV obviously.

Lower Manhattan along that stretch of Bleecker on the other side where the original Joe's is (You may have gone to the 14th street shop) I like Bleecker Street pizza more, John's is kind of a landmark too I guess. Keste is good for a bit more traditional Neapolitan.

Grimaldi's has an outpost in the Limelight. I like their White slices. Prince Street pizza is something worth the time to get there to try, more bakery style pizza's but very nice.


If you end up anywhere in the Upper West Side (Above 79th street) Caesar's Palace Pizza is a bit deceiving as it's kinda dingy inside but they serve larger, very good slices at a nice price for NYC.

Best pizza in NY - IMO. Last time I was in NY, I ate there everyday for lunch...

I'm a Chi-pizza kind of guy, but I would take Artichoke Pizza over almost all Chi-pizza

The hype has some merit for sure.

Also the place I recommended in the UWS, had a feeling this was looming for some years now. The city is slowly becoming an endless stream of drug stores, banks and starbucks.

I drove (or rather was driven) through NY yesterday, but didn't get a chance to stop for pizza. :cry:
