Roman-style pan pizza ("pizza al taglio") at Taglio in Massapequa Park
Rob Cervoni’s second Taglio pizzeria has opened in Massapequa Park and
based on the crowds that descended on Day One
it looks like it will be easier the second time around
employees were having a tough time keeping the display cases stocked with the shop’s two styles of pizza
Roman-style "pizza al taglio" — baked in rectangular pans and cut with scissors into square slices ("taglio" means "cut") — and round New York pies sold whole or by the slice
Both types of pies come in more than 20 variations
with toppings ranging from classic (tomato and mozzarella
$6.25 / $39) to Only On Long Island (sausage
opened the original Taglio in Mineola in 2018
the odds were stacked against them: The little pizzeria around the corner from the LIRR was obscured by the Mineola Boulevard overpass and it’s hard to say whether there was less foot traffic or less parking
this is where the two joined the movement that was challenging Long Island pizza conventions
introducing "pizza al taglio" and upgrading the classic
high-hydration doughs that they fussed over as if they were newborns
The chic decor combines Ninja Turtles with Ancient Rome and there’s a free municipal lot out back
the ground floor is a bit bigger than in Mineola
but there are another 1,700 square feet of basement where Cervoni set up a prep kitchen and a temperature-controlled dough room with filtered water
a state-of-the art mixer (that promptly broke in time for the opening) and an automated dough baller
This is also where Cervoni stores his Caputo flour
contains neither bleach nor potassium bromate
which strengthens the dough and enhances rising but has been banned in the EU

The Massapequa Park location serves the same pizzas
But there’s also a small dessert menu of tiramisu and maritozzi (cream-stuffed brioches)
More significant are the new beverage options
You can have a freshly pulled Caffe Kimbo espresso or a "Kimbo Crema," (think creamy coffee slushy) or
a bottle of Veuve Clicquot ($150) or Dom Pérignon ($350)
everyone told me I was going to fail," he said
"My whole pizza journey is reflected here
I wanted to show everyone what a slice shop could be."

A Long Island pizzeria that boasts glowing reviews from visitors and national critics is expanding
Taglio Pizza at 85 Mineola Boulevard in Mineola
Taglio Pizza
will open a second location in Massapequa Park later this year

Owner Rob Cervoni said the new location at 115 Front St
is being renovated to convert it from a former sushi restaurant to an artisanal Roman pizzeria
He hopes to open the new location in early December
Taglio Pizza has a 4.3 out of 5 rating on Yelp with reviews calling the slices "delicious," "mind-blowing," and "best I've ever eaten."
It's not just fans singing his glories. Cervoni was crowned a champion on the cooking show "Chopped" in 2022, and Taglio Pizza was named the third-best pizza in the county and the top 100 in the world by Top 50 Pizza
a common refrain in the restaurant's reviews is the difficulty of getting to the pizzeria
The new location should address those complaints

‘Department of government efficiency’ to terminate 793 leases as poll says 60% of voters disapprove of Musk agency
Donald Trump and Elon Musk face increasing headwinds in their attempt to brutally slash federal budgets and staffing
after two judges ruled against the firing of probationary employees by Musk’s so-called “department of government efficiency” (Doge) and public polling revealed strong disapproval of the Tesla billionaire’s work
the gathering effects of the cuts were illustrated by news that federal agencies will begin to vacate hundreds of offices across the country this summer
Citing internal documents from the General Services Administration (GSA), the Associated Press reported that dozens of federal leases were expected to end by 30 June, with hundreds more ending in the following months.
But the AP reported that some agencies and lawmakers had appealed to exempt specific buildings
as several face 20 or more lease cancellations
Department of Agriculture and US Geological Survey
Lesser-known agencies facing problems include the Bureau of Reclamation
which oversees water supply and deals with disputes across the west
which provides benefits for railroad workers and their survivors
“Some agencies are saying: ‘I’m not leaving
a former GSA official who now represents building owners with government leases
“I think there’s going to be a period of pushback
they may start working on the actual execution of a move.”
Doge says GSA has notified landlords it plans to terminate 793 leases
mostly those that can be ended within months without penalty
Doge estimates such moves will save roughly $500m over leases which in some cases continue into the 2030s
A fraction of Musk’s publicly stated $1tn cost-cutting goal
the $500m figure does not take into account the costs of moves and closures
“My initial reaction is this is just going to cause more chaos,” Jim Simpson
an Arizona accountant who sits on an IRS panel that advocates for taxpayers
“There’s a lot of room to help with government efficiency
but it should be done surgically and not with a chainsaw.”
The billionaire tech mogul Musk has posed with a chainsaw – a trope borrowed from Javier Milei
the rightwing populist president of Argentina – presenting himself as a merciless opponent of government waste and inefficiency
True to form in gleefully stirring offense – not least by giving two Nazi-style salutes during Trump’s inauguration – Musk on Thursday reposted a message that blamed government workers for atrocities carried out by 20th-century totalitarian regimes
Mao and Hitler didn’t murder millions of people,” the post said
Musk did not add comment. But a new Quinnipiac University poll suggested he may have cause to consider if his gleefully abrasive behavior is helping him achieve his aims
“Sixty per cent of voters disapprove of the way Elon Musk and … Doge are dealing with workers employed by the federal government
The poll also reported a “wide partisan divide”
with 77% of Republicans in favor of Musk and Doge and 16% disapproving while 96% of Democrats disapproved
The poll also showed that 54% of all voters think Musk and Doge are damaging the country
Quinnipiac also found a public split on who will be blamed for a government shutdown if one occurs after a Friday midnight deadline for passing new a spending measure
Free newsletterBig thinkers on what we can do to protect civil liberties and fundamental freedoms in a Trump presidency
Quinnipiac said: “If a government shutdown does occur
32% of voters say they would blame Democrats in Congress the most
31% say they would blame Republicans in Congress the most
22% say they would blame President Trump the most
Senate Democrats hold the key to avoiding a shutdown, as Republicans who control the chamber 53-47 must meet a 60-vote threshold. Chuck Schumer of New York
attracted widespread opprobrium from his party when he said on Thursday he would vote to pass the funding package
because in his judgment a shutdown would allow Trump and Musk to do more damage
Schumer said: “Under a shutdown, the Trump administration would have full authority to deem whole agencies
furloughing staff with no promise that they would ever be rehired.”
two federal judges ruled against Musk and Doge
In the US district court for the northern district of California
the judge William H Alsup ruled that fired probationary employees must be offered their jobs back
At least 30,000 such employees have been fired so far
In a case concerning Doge firings at the Departments of Defense
Alsup said the process used by Doge was a “sham”
Our government would fire some good employee
In Maryland, the district judge James Bredar issued a temporary restraining order blocking firings at 18 agencies including the Department of Education
which Trump has vowed to close and which said this week would cut half its workforce
“The ‘E’ in Doge is efficiency,” he said
We are trying to make the government do better for the American people and right-size it – the government can do a better job for the American people at a better price.”
But Bredar took aim at Musk’s tech-influenced approach: “Move fast

it can be difficult to choose the best nail clippers for you and your budget
I spoke to Rose and ten other experts — including nail technicians
and our own writers — about which ones they recommend and tested out some for myself
2025: Added Revlon’s Deluxe Nail Clipper as an even cheaper option; updated prices and checked stock for all other products
Stainless-steel blades were a must across the board when I spoke to experts
with Rose mentioning that titanium-steel clippers work too
They’re easy to clean and rust-resistant to help avoid infections and extend a clipper’s life
a board-certified dermatologist specializing in nail health
suggests investing in clippers made with good-quality steel as opposed to less expensive tools that tend to dull and need to be replaced
The rest of the nail clipper might be made of a mix of metals or plastic
but it’s most important that the blade that cuts your nails is stainless or titanium
Nail clippers generally come with two different edge shapes: straight and curved
Stick with a straight-edged clipper if you like your nails more squared and a curve-edged clipper if you like your nails more rounded
experts suggest a nail clipper with a straight edge because angling the sides of the nail with a curved nail clipper can encourage the nail to grow into the skin
Picking the right size of your nail clippers is dependent on the person
If you’re someone who has smaller fingernails and toenails
you’re probably fine with a fingernail clipper for both
it’s probably best to have a set of both fingernail and toenail clippers
or you might be able to get away with just toenail clippers in some cases
because they provide more leverage for anyone with mobility issues or trouble reaching their toes
There are just as many nail clippers with added features as there are plain ones
If there are any features that are actually useful
It’s worth noting that some of these clippers come with nail files
That’s because almost all nail files on clippers aren’t good enough for normal use
and you’re much better off just getting an emery board instead
Blade material: Stainless steel | Edge shape: Curved | Size: Fingernail clipper | Extra features: Ergonomic ridges
The Seki Edge SS-107 is crafted by the same company as the Green Bell clippers, a longtime Strategist favorite
thanks to their slightly wider design that I found easier to grip
The Seki Edge slices through all of my nails seamlessly with little effort
I’ve never torn or cracked a nail while trimming with these
It’s worth noting that Tweezerman was the most touted by experts (more on that soon)
the ease and seamlessness while using the Seki made it stand out as truly the best
The only potential drawback is that this clipper seems to go out of stock often. In that case, I’d recommend a very similar clipper from the same brand, the Seki-Edge SS-112
It clips just as seamlessly but has a slightly slimmer design and costs a couple bucks more
Blade material: Stainless steel | Edge shape: Straight | Size: Toenail clipper | Extra features: Free sharpening service
Blade material: Stainless steel | Edge shape: Curved | Size: Fingernail clippers
Strategist writer Ambar Pardilla has been using this Revlon clipper since college
mightiest nail clipper.” She rarely gets an uneven edge when cutting her fingernails or toenails since it cuts “like a good pair of scissors.” And because it’s smaller than most nail clippers
she can get into the corners of her nails to cut her desired shape
These clippers come with a foldaway nail file
which Pardilla uses mainly to clean a fresh coat of nail polish rather than buff away rough edges
I haven’t had the chance to test the Revlon clipper out myself against the Tweezerman or Seki Edge
but the low price tag and Pardilla’s strong recommendation were enough to add it to the list
Blade material: Stainless steel | Edge shape: Curved and straight | Size: Fingernail and toenail clippers
this Tweezerman one is just a couple dollars extra
It comes with the toenail clipper above and a smaller fingernail clipper with a curved edge
While most of our experts don’t think having two different-size clippers is absolutely necessary
“Fingernails and toenails are very different in size,” she says
“The analogy would be comparing an adult fingernail to a young child’s — you would use two different-size clippers.” When I tried out the set
it was helpful having a smaller set of clippers
I could more easily shape my nails as I clipped them
and it cut down the time I had to file and shape my nails
but the clippers feel slightly less substantial since both are a bit lighter
Blade material: Stainless steel | Edge shape: Curved | Size: Toenail clipper | Extra features: Cushion grip
who tend to have thicker (and often ingrown) toenails
curved blade that easily slices off any toenail
no matter how strong or hard or gnarly it has gotten
you barely need to squeeze them for them to work perfectly.”
Blade material: Stainless steel | Edge shape: Straight | Size: Fingernail clipper
This set of two clippers may look like the standard fare found at drugstores, but they’re able to cut through thick fingernails. When Viera-Newton spoke to experts about safely removing SNS, gel, or acrylic manicures at home
so if you also want to cut your nails short to make the removal process a little easier
and the smaller size is more ideal for trimming fingernails than the above
Blade material: Stainless steel | Edge shape: Straight | Size: Toenail clipper | Extra features: Swivel blade
she was hesitant about using podiatry nail clippers at home
“They’re designed to be used on someone else,” she says
adding that it could lead to cuts and infections if the user isn’t careful
which has a long plastic grip that’s much larger than that of a standard set of nail clippers and a blade head that swivels 180 degrees
Both of those features make this clipper much easier to use for anyone with arthritis or mobility issues
since they have more control and an added range they can reach
Blade material: Stainless steel | Edge shape: Straight | Size: Toenail nipper
And since this specific Mundial nipper has a straight edge
use a straight nail clipper to cut the nail
but do not cut or file on the sides of the nail,” says Romah
Blade material: Stainless steel | Edge shape: Straight | Size: Fingernail clipper | Extra features: Leather storage case
Blade material: Stainless steel | Edge shape: Curved | Size: Baby nails | Extra features: Spy hole
and it’s important to keep them short so they don’t accidentally scratch themselves (or you)
Clipping a baby’s nails can be a difficult task
Strategist writer Lauren Ro uses these intuitive clippers
these use a “kind of slicing motion that’s better for soft baby nails” and even have a “viewing” window to help get a better look at what you’re clipping

New York
For the third year in a row
the Lower East Side's Una Pizza Napoletana
a culinary gem by Anthony Mangieri, was named best pizzeria in the U.S
an online guide focusing on the best Italian pizzerie across the world
The announcement was made at event space West Edge in Chelsea Market yesterday
during a ceremony that also spotlighted the 16 other local restaurants that made the guide
New York City reigns supreme as the pizza capital of America
boasting the highest number of entries on the list
New York State was also the most represented state
it's worth diving into the methodology behind the survey
50 Top Pizza dispatches anonymous inspectors all over the country to assesses each potential entry "in accordance with our guide policy." Evaluation criteria includes the quality of the pizza (duh) but also the attention given to the customer's level of satisfaction
In addition to the annual pizzeria list that 50 Top Pizza releases annually
the company also debuted a new ranking this year
which looks at the top pizza slices in the U.S
which boasts locations in the West Village and Brooklyn
topped that specific list—although it's unclear which one of the shop's many delicious slices is being honored

The Italian peninsula is home to several styles of pizza
pillow-soft dough bombs found in and around Naples to the thick
square slices that permeate the island of Sicily
feather-light round pizza and the perhaps lesser-known pizza al taglio
Translating to "pizza by the cut," pizza al taglio is baked in a large
cut into long strips or rectangular pieces
as it's typically sold out of hole-in-the-wall joints and frequently eaten on the go as a quick lunch or snack
Classic toppings include marinated zucchini flowers
thinly sliced potatoes drizzled in ribbons of olive oil and sprinkled with flecks of rosemary and sea salt
and a rich tomato sauce paired with dollops of mozzarella
some places also sell the timeless sweet-and-savory pizza bianca con Nutella
lightly salted plain pizza generously stuffed with the chocolate-hazelnut spread
the pizza al taglio scene has gotten bigger
and bolder thanks to a burgeoning class of experimental pizzaioli who are revamping the style with innovative ingredients and flavor profiles — think fried artichokes
Tasting Table spoke with six local experts
from respected food writers to popular online food bloggers
about their favorite places to get pizza al taglio in the Eternal City
Gabriele Bonci is known around Rome as the man who revolutionized pizza
becoming the first Roman pizzaiolo to use only organic products and quality ingredients
following his raging success in his native city
Bonci opened two establishments in Chicago and one in Miami
Bonci's pizzas have developed a cult following among locals for their unique toppings. "Bonci is the history of pizza al taglio," Jacopo Mercuro, the head pizzaiolo and owner of 180 Grammi Pizzeria Romana
"He was the first to change the approach to pizza." Bonci's toppings often change based on seasonal offerings
shows and has earned nicknames like "The King of Roman Pizza" or "The Michelangelo of Pizza." He has also trained many of the city's new experimental pizzaioli
are changing the rules of the pizza al taglio game

The crust is soaked in a rich Chianina meat and tomato ragù sauce and sprinkled with parsley and grated Parmigiano Reggiano
Ruver further stands out from the crowd by selling his pizza in pre-cut rectangular slices rather than by weight
Instagram
Tucked away in a residential area of the Prati district
just a stone's throw away from Saint Peter's Basilica
is the understated Lina – La Pizza in Teglia
This spot is a standout for its pizza dough
as well as its menu that changes based on seasonal offerings
This is a favorite spot of Lucrezia di Pancrazio, a local food blogger who runs the Instagram profile @italyfoodprnroma
The pizza with pumpkin lard and gorgonzola cheese is her favorite winter menu offering
while the caponata pizza with roasted aubergine tartare
and marinated red onion is her go-to choice for the summer
But that's not all; as she told Tasting Table
"I cannot fail to mention the latest release
Lina – La Pizza in Teglia also sells supplì (fried rice balls with mozzarella and tomato sauce)
and olive ascolane (fried olives stuffed with meat)
linapizza.com
as Lucrezia di Pancrazio told Tasting Table
All [of its] pizzas are incredible and super special." The family-run establishment is located just outside of Rome in the seaside town of Fiumicino
where fresh sea air and lovingly baked pizza go hand-in-hand
The restaurant is a favorite of many pizza lovers, such as Giovanni Puglisi, a food writer and the founder of Conza Food Lab
He ranked Pizzeria Sancho as one of his favorites for its "ability to conjugate a level of utter mastery in the technical management of the dough with a playful and sinful attitude
both on the choice of toppings and toward the customers."
the pizza at Pizzeria Sancho dal 1969 is worth the traffic you must endure to escape the city
"Every Roman who loves pizza al taglio heads to Fiumicino for the Sancho family
The pizza with porchetta in a potato crust is poetry," he told Tasting Table
Di Pancrazio seconded Mercuro's opinion on the porchetta and potato pizza
adding that visitors should also try one of its many stuffed pizzas
such as the one stuffed with a breaded veal cutlet and greens tossed with mayonnaise

Forno da Milvio has been feeding Romans since 1930
the family-run establishment is located on Via dei Serpenti
a road shadowed by the impressive silhouette of the ancient Roman Colosseum
has over 500,000 followers — explained to Tasting Table
"[Forno da Milvio] is right in my neighborhood
While it's perhaps primarily known for its pizza al taglio, Forno da Milvio also cooks and sells pasta and desserts such as classic tiramisù
and it's an ideal place to grab a quick bite for lunch
what's better than eating delicious pizza in front of the Colosseum or while strolling past the ruins of the ancient Roman Forum
Instagram
and — of course — its crown jewel: the Antico Forno
Located just steps away from the bustling Campo de' Fiori in the heart of Rome's historical center, Antico Forno Roscioli set up shop in a 19th-century bakery in 1972. The restaurant is primarily known for its bread, baked cakes, and 5-foot-long slabs of pizza al taglio. Its arguably most popular pizza is also its simplest: la pizza bianca
a fluffy white pizza seasoned only with ribbons of olive oil and flecks of sea salt
Roscioli's other pizza offerings include pizza rossa
another simple pizza lightly flavored with a brush of tomato sauce
and Elizabeth Minchilli's favorite: pizza con patate
pizza garnished with thinly sliced potato medallions aromatized with rosemary and salt
Although lines form often and early outside of Roscioli
the delicacies inside are surely worth the wait
anticofornoroscioli.it
Forno Campo de' Fiori enjoys a prime location right on the bustling Campo de' Fiori square
It's jam-packed with tourists and locals buying their groceries and enjoying a quick nibble at all times of the day
so don't expect a leisurely experience when you visit
Often cramped and hectic (the real hallmark of any old-school Roman establishment)
the bakery's lack of seating means that tourists must eat their pizza al taglio on the go
The restaurant's pizza al taglio standouts are surely its pizza rossa and pizza bianca
She told Tasting Table that she'll often snag a slice or two for a snack or quick lunch while out running errands

Pantera, meaning "panther," is a relative newcomer to Rome's increasingly trendy Garbatella district, known for its slew of inner courtyards, urban gardens, and distinct architectural styles. Opened in late 2023 by the two brothers behind the nearby natural wine bar Circoletto
Pantera is a no-frills joint freckled with soccer memorabilia
Pantera's pizza al taglio tastes and feels like a treasured memory straight from the late '80s," Giovanni Puglisi described to Tasting Table
"With the slight difference that the toppings are farm-fresh and top-tier."
and wedges of potatoes are traditional standouts
and customers can also grab a local craft beer from its small fridge and supplì to go
"It's a new opening in Garbatella and a return of the rustic pizza
The red pizza with the salsa verde is a must," Jacopo Mercuro said
Puglisi recommended trying its Coratella pizza, made with mixed lamb offal stewed with onions; its Trippa alla Romana, ox tripes cooked in tomato sauce and sweet mint and sprinkled with Pecorino Romano cheese; and its pizza topped with moscardini
Instagram
Casa Manco is one of the 100-plus stalls that make up the Testaccio Market
located in Rome's old-school Testaccio district
The family-run stand is a go-to pizza al taglio spot for Elizabeth Minchilli
who visits for its "fancy toppings and really good dough." While its flavors change based on the fruits and vegetables available each season
a couple of signature toppings are usually available year-round
"They do a pizza bianca [white pizza] with sesame seeds
I'm glad they're not closer,'" Minchilli told Tasting Table
Casa Manco's pizza is a favorite not just among locals but among tourists — it was even included in TripAdvisor's 2022 Traveler's Choice Awards
The stand's pizzas can be delivered around Rome via food delivery services such as Uber Eats
But that's not all — Casa Manco also sells a selection of beers
so you can wash down your pizza with your beverage of choice

The small establishment in the Appio-Tuscolano district of Rome recently underwent a renovation
"So now the ambiance does justice to the magnificent pizzas displayed over the counter on daily rotation," Luciana Squadrilli told us
She added that most of its ingredients are sourced from small
Squadrilli recommends sampling its pizza with zucchini
Facebook
Spearheaded by young pizzaiolo Francesco Arnesano
Lievito Pizza Pane offers a more refined take on the traditional pizza al taglio
It's the kind of place you go when "you want to taste something unique," Pamela Panebianco explained
"The millimetric balance between a dough with an unbeatable texture and a topping that makes you hungry even by just looking at it is the key to its success."
Arnesano's establishment is small but sophisticated and located in the EUR borough of Rome
a business and residential district known for its Fascist-era architecture
Arnesano's dough is feather-light and has just the right amount of crunch
the restaurant's toppings rotate both daily and seasonally based on seasonal vegetables
and fresh fish such as mazzancolle (aka caramote prawns)
A standout for Squadrilli was Arnesano's pizza with veal terrine
But Arnesano's talents don't stop at pizza. In 2023, he launched a bakery where he also makes and sells bread, cookies, and seasonal pastries including Panettone and Colomba
which Squadrilli said "are not to be missed."

Tucked behind Rome's iconic Piazza Trilussa in the nightlife district of Trastevere
the family-run establishment is dominated by a slew of ovens and a long glass display case featuring its many mouthwatering pizza al taglio options
"I feel like they're an old-fashioned Italian pizza place," Elizabeth Minchilli told Tasting Table
A popular spot on weekend nights for both locals and tourists seeking a delicious (and affordable) meal to soak up the night's revelries
La Renella is undoubtedly a Roman stalwart
It does old-school pizza al taglio toppings like potatoes and zucchini flowers the best
but don't forget to try one of its many homemade breads
which can be delivered fresh from the oven to your door (or hotel)
Instagram
Although it's primarily a supplì spot (as evidenced by its name), Supplì Roma also makes pizza al taglio so good that it's one of Elizabeth Minchilli's favorite spots. She told Tasting Table that whenever she's in the Trastevere area, she stops by for a slice of its Marinara pizza
but it's a little more saucy," she explained
The restaurant's other pizzas — which include funghi porcini
Supplì Roma also makes calamari fritti (aka fried calamari rings)
the undoubted stars of the show and the perfect complement to any pizza al taglio
you'll be spoiled for choice at Supplì Roma

The former Bar Taglio space is transforming into Bar Solea
and roasted meats and seafood in the heart of Seattle
Seattle restaurateur and chef Brendan McGill announced today that he’s opening a trattoria serving neo-Neapolitan pizza
and vegetables in the former space of Bar Taglio on 1st Avenue in Downtown Seattle
in 2019 to cater to the downtown office crowd
and Bar Taglio went through a series of pivots to try to stay afloat
the most recent of which was a Roman-style slice shop
in a similar shift away from the pandemic-era focus on quick service and takeout
“Bar Taglio was exactly what I wanted it to be for four months in 2019,” McGill says
“I want a clean vision and start over with a whole restaurant the way it was the first time I opened that space.”
a chef who’s worked for McGill at his Bainbridge restaurants Bruciato and Seabird
and he and McGill wrote a menu based on classic Italian flavors
The pizza at Bar Solea will be Neo-Neapolitan
fairly similar to classic Neapolitan pizza
but with tweaks like using some local whole-grain flour in the dough and cooking it at a slightly lower temperature for a crispier crust
Each pizza will be stretched and baked to order
The tomato base of each pizza will be made with Solea tomatoes
the variety used at the best pizza restaurants in Naples
The toppings include classic Italian ingredients like prosciutto
along with some seasonal PNW ingredients like lobster mushrooms
McGill says Walter is one of the few chefs he knows who’s as good at making pizza as any other type of food
Antipasti will include salumi that McGill and Walter recently cured using meat from the mangalitsa hogs McGill’s raises on his farm on Bainbridge Island
as well as other snacks like meatballs in tomato sauce
The forno (oven) menu will include roasted rockfish
lamb chops served with anchovy vinaigrette
and locally raised rabbit dish with mushroom-tomato ragu
is also using Bar Solea to nerd out about ancient Roman cuisine
which was developed before Italian colonizers brought tomatoes and peppers back from the new world
a time when fish sauce was widely used to season food in Europe
An example on the opening menu is a roasted carrot dish with anchovy garum (Roman fish sauce)
the beverage director of McGill’s restaurant group
compiled a list of Italian wines (mostly from the Campania and Veneto regions) to pair with pizza for the bar
and Bar Taglio’s Negroni on tap (which McGill calls a “Nitroni”) is still on the beverage menu
While Bar Solea is meant to be a dinner spot
McGill wants people coming out of the nearby Seattle Art Museum or going to a sports game to also be able to pop-in for an espresso
Restaurants in the neighborhood around Bar Taglio were among the hardest hit when the pandemic started
McGill says he sees a quiet renaissance as downtown slowly starts to awaken from its pandemic-induced slumber
“Hopefully the timing is right for this regrowth
because somebody has to do it,” McGill says
Bar Solea is located at 822 1st Ave. It will be open open 4 p.m. to 10 p.m., Tuesday through Saturday. Reservations will be available on Bar Solea’s website
A forthcoming pizza restaurant in Rosslyn plans to serve up Roman-style pies of the rectangular variety
Ravenna Pizza advertises a menu with 13 varieties of sharp-cornered pizza, alongside salads, homemade gelato and Italian desserts. Owner Mustafa Durran plans to open in the former spot of Capriotti’s Sandwich Shop at 1500 Wilson Blvd by early to mid-January
Ravenna’s pies, called “pizza al taglio,” undergo a much longer rise than a typical Neapolitan or New York-style pie — fermenting in two stages for a total of 72 hours before baking
and the end result is crusty in the bottom
with minimalistic authentic ingredients,” Durran said
you feel the crunch and it melts in your mouth.”
He felt inspired to open a pizzeria after a trip in Rome in May 2022
where he fell in love with a Roman method of making pizza
He said he hopes to bring similar flavors to the D.C
“I’m very disappointed in the quality of the pizza in the mainstream and the D.C
and then you see what pizza should really be like.”
In addition to making pizzas, Durran plans to serve homemade gelato with Italian equipment from Carpigiani that can make gelato base
Ravenna also plans to have a full-service bar with Italian beer
but the pizzeria will also offer takeout and delivery
currently the owner of a local insurance agency
he helped out his family’s restaurant as a teenager
Working alongside Durran at the new restaurant will be Chef Massimiliano Saieva, the owner of ASR PizzaLab Academy in Madrid
Durran said the business is currently in the process of applying for building permits
“I wholeheartedly believe that this would be a service for the people of Northern Virginia once we deliver this authentic
Italian province-style pizza,” Durran said
“We’re so excited to bring this authentic
different style of food to Arlington.”

Roman-style pizza slices at Taglio in Mineola
Rob Cervoni has been serving some of Long Island’s best pizza out of one of Long Island’s most obscure locations
Taglio, a partnership with Mimmo Tomoleo, is around the corner from the Mineola LIRR station and hidden from view by the Mineola Boulevard overpass. It introduced Roman-style pizza to the local scene and has been a fixture on Newsday’s top pizza list
Cervoni is setting himself an easier task: He has just signed a lease at 115 Front St
a location that comes with foot traffic and
“It’s even got front and rear entrances,” he noted
Cervoni said that the sushi bar is still there and that he will be doing “a complete gut” of the interior
“I want it to be a Willy Wonka factory of pizza,” Cervoni said
The new pizzeria will have 30 to 40 indoor seats and an outdoor dining area
It won’t be too much bigger than the Mineola shop
there will be fried appetizers and salads but
While you can get round pies (and wedge-shaped slices) at Taglio
Roman-style pizzas are baked in large sheet pans and cut with scissors into slices

Never had the chance to eat at Pizza al Taglio
Read on for our honest review of the pizza and sangria
Allow me to set the scene for you: It’s a lovely evening, a few clouds in the sky but no chance of rain, you’ve just arrived via Skyliner to EPCOT, and you’ve got big plans to eat around the world, enjoying the many global delicacies that the EPCOT international Food & Wine Festival has to offer
and the park is hopping with Orlando locals and foodie vacationers … and the lines are looking long
My wife, WDW Magazine CEO Stephanie Shuster, and I both found ourselves in this exact scenario on a recent trip to EPCOT
Never one to shrink from a challenge we pushed ahead
I noticed a new set of lights in the back of the Italy Pavilion
you will have undoubtedly walked past this window many
The hours at Pizza al Taglio are sporadic to put it mildly
The window seems to operate seasonally but also based on overall crowd levels
so it can be hard to plan on exactly when you’ll be able to enjoy these monster slices
Pizza al Taglio is a takeaway window located just to the left of the entrance to Via Napoli. For those of you in the know, or for anyone who remembers my in-depth article on the many styles and varieties of pizza at WDW (Issue 85
October 2020) you’ll know that Via Napoli makes some of the absolute finest pizza you can enjoy at WDW

you’ll find an assortment of pizzas that are authentic Naples style
although they do get a little experimental with toppings
Outside the restaurant at the Quick-Service window
you will find the more robust Roma-style pizza
Roma style pizza is a great big square of pizza goodness
The crust has a nice crunch on the very bottom but is fluffy and airy inside
Sometimes Roma pizza can seem a bit closer to a focaccia bread with pizza toppings than a thin crust Neapolitan style slice
There was only one real question when we visited Pizza al Taglio: Did we want pepperoni or margherita pizza
So we did the only reasonable thing and ordered a slice of each
we also decided to add on a couple of the frozen sangrias
and again we were presented with a simple choice between a white or a red
and at that point we were set for a delicious
Both the white and red sangrias were very refreshing and felt like an ideal choice for a warm Florida evening
The red version was more wine-forward in its flavor profile
The menu did not specify but I would guess a chianti or similar Italian style wine was the base for this concoction
The white sangria had a more tropical finish on the palate; I detected notes of mango and peach and felt a bit effervescent
and I would gladly recommend either should you find yourself with a thirst that needs quenching
The pizza was a real treat and absolutely lived up to the hype I had built in my mind after so many unsuccessful attempts to actually order it
No one could complain about these portions
they are tasty enough to want to keep it for yourself
The difference between the pepperoni and the margherita was simply that the latter did not have any pepperonis
the same vibrant and slightly acidic tomato sauce
The acidity of the tomato sauce cuts through the richness of the cheese and the textural balance between the crunchy bottom of the crust
The fluffy interior and cheesy topping is outstanding
Keep those napkins at the ready though; these slices are loaded with toppings
The addition of some fresh basil or a dollop of pesto would have really plussed the margherita
And if the pepperoni had been left in the oven for just a minute or two longer
the pepperonis could have reached their full potential getting those incredible charred edges and crispy corners
I was really just excited to FINALLY get the chance to try this pizza I had heard so much about
we had dinner and drinks and checked a brand-new (to us) experience off our Disney bucket list
This impromptu pizza date was a wonderful memory and a great addition to our trip
we continued our journey around World Showcase no longer concerned with the lines at the festival booths
instead taking the time to enjoy the sights and sounds of EPCOT

Pizza by the slice isn’t just a New York City thing
Rome is famed for its big rectangular slices in a rainbow of seasonal toppings
Now you can get this ultra-convenient pizza on Brunswick Street
where Pizzette offers more than 20 “pizza al taglio” slices
Roasted eggplant parmigiana is an owner-favourite
while customers are flocking to the polpette featuring beef meatballs
and mortadella with burrata on a white base
Slices are pulled from the Moretti Forni electric deck oven

hides a gastronomic jewel that is revolutionizing the pizza scene in Barcelona: Fel-la
the small pizzeria that has brought to Barcelona the authentic Roman pizza ‘in teglia’
Pizza ‘in teglia’ is not just any pizza
is perfect for those looking for a lighter and more sophisticated experience than the classic Neapolitan pizza
which guarantees a crispy outside and soft inside texture
ideal to support any combination of toppings
with an overflowing creativity that will make you rethink everything you knew about pizzas
found in this technique a way to unite tradition and innovation
it is capable of holding everything from stews to more daring combinations
who was not only a pizza maker but also a cook
has managed to create a base that works as a perfect canvas for the more than 300 pizza combinations he has created in just one year
Among the most outstanding options is the Margherita Lenta
mozzarella and a variety of sausages that take your palate on a journey through Italy in every bite
If anything distinguishes Fel-la is its commitment to local products
cheeses and vegetables come from local suppliers
but with a clear influence of Italian flavors
The connection between tradition and sustainability is reflected in every slice
also has its history: with “h” it means peasant in Arabic
while without “h” it translates as piece or slice in Italian
A perfect metaphor for the rectangular slices that rest on its counter and are
some of the best pizza bites you can find in Barcelona
When you enter Fel-la (located at Sant Pere Més Baix
the first thing that catches your eye is the counter
A parade of rectangular trays loaded with more than ten varieties of pizza invites you to try them all
From the classic margherita to the daring Mortazza
pistachio snow and thin slices of mortadella
each option is a spectacle for the eye and taste
on Saturdays Marco prepares a pizza with Catalan-style Bolognese ragu
a fusion that blends the best of both culinary cultures
Fel-la is not just a pizzeria; it is a refuge for those looking to eat fast
well and without falling into tourist traps
Its light portions allow you to enjoy several options without feeling full
which turns each visit into an opportunity to discover new flavors
In a neighborhood where soulless fast food abounds
Fel-la stands as a sanctuary for pizza lovers

his goal was to introduce Long Islanders to Roman-style pizza
The result was a crust whose texture was both structured and airy; delicious on its own but heightened with such toppings as mortadella and pistachio
Taglio had a floor plan and a location (around the corner from both a train station and a hospital) that suggested “slice shop” not “artisan pizza.” As a new business owner
Cervoni did not want to turn away the customers who wanted a basic pepperoni slice
“We tried to give everyone what they wanted,” he recalled
Adding to his woes: Construction on the Mineola LIRR station started soon after he opened
then the pandemic effectively eliminated both commuters and locals taking the train to concerts or sports events
Cervoni admitted that he’d let himself down
“I wanted to be at the forefront of artisanal pizza on Long Island,” he said
he’d forged a friendship with Mimmo Tolomeo
an Elmont native (and scion of both Elmont's Sapienza Bake Shop and A & S Bagels in Franklin Square)
who had become an accomplished pizzaiolo and acted as a brand ambassador for the Naples-based company
he missed his "home island” and decided to join Cervoni in relaunching and expanding Taglio
adding such toppings as Amatriciana sauce and truffled mushrooms
Tolomeo concentrated on what he calls his “Neo New York” pie
are working to “New Yorkify” the classic 12-inch individual Naples-style pie which many American customers find too soft and floppy
Their efforts go into making a pie that is crisper and tighter
Tolomeo is moving in the opposite direction
using traditional Italian techniques (pre-fermented dough
imported tomatoes) to build a better 18-inch
The pie itself is topped with four types of cheese: Shredded low-moisture mozzarella
Pecorino Romano and an American-made grana
everything is looking up: The train station is busier now as Mineolans use the LIRR to get to concerts and ballgames; huge new apartment buildings are providing a new stream of customers
“The greatest thing is when someone comes in here for a quick lunch and they try the pizza and say
This is the best pizza I have ever had.’ I want to introduce people to these styles
there are plenty of other pizzerias around.”

A second Taglio Pizza is coming to Over-the-Rhine
It is expected to open in the old Lachey's Bar space in the spring.
Taglio is the second pizza concept from the owners of A Tavola Trattoria. A Tavola serves thin-crusted wood-fired Neapolitan pizza and other Italian classics in two locations
But when owners Jared and Nick Wayne and Jake Goodwin opened Taglio in Columbia Tusculum
they specialized in traditionally American-style pizza and thick-crusted Detroit-style
Now Taglio is getting a second location at the corner of 12th and Walnut streets with dine-in
with appetizers and salads as well as pizza
The app developed for the original store makes ordering from a phone very easy.
They're leasing the building from 3CDC
also their landlord at A Tavola on Vine Street
That location is in the process of renovation.

But for a city so comfortable with straight-edges
Roman-style al taglio — the Italian king of rectangular pizza — stays put right under the radar
Few restaurants have tried it out in Philly
and even fewer were successful when they did
But pizza al taglio is the hot, new thing in the States, what with Roman-style shops opening in big food cities like New York
Philly is joining the movement with a new shop called Rione opening at 102 South 21st Street in just a few short months

A celebrated Long Island pizzaiolo competes Tuesday at 8 p.m
on Food Network's "Chopped," going up against three other pizza chefs for the episode's $10,000 prize
"Long Island pizza is its own scene," says Rob Cervoni
in Mineola specializes in Roman-style pizza
"We get overlooked because we're so close to Brooklyn and Manhattan," two pizza destinations
"but some of the best pizzerias and some of the best pizza makers are from Long Island," he says
"What I get out of this whole 'Chopped' experience is that I'm able to represent pizza on Long Island in a positive light and hopefully get some respect for Long Island pizza."
While there is no "Long Island-style" pizza distinct from the usual Neapolitan
he concedes — "Maybe Grandma-style is Long Island-style pizza?" he suggests — Cervoni is helping to popularize the relatively rare Roman-style
which resembles flatbread but is thicker yet simultaneously airier due to its highly hydrated dough that is given a long rise of up to 96 hours
Born in Lake Success and raised in Great Neck
a 16 Handles frozen-yogurt franchise in the latter village
He ran it for eight years before leaving to try something new
always loved making pizza at home," he says
having grown up with a wood-fired oven in his family's backyard
"But I didn't want to be like every other pizzeria on Long Island — I wanted to do something artisanal."
The 2006 Great Neck South High School graduate
who went on to a business degree from Lynn University in Florida
had eaten Roman-style pizza during summers in the second-generation Italian's ancestral town
But he only was inspired to learn to make it after seeing it at a pizza expo in 2016
The style had had its first major exposure in the United States not long before
via Roman restaurateur Gabriele Bonci's first American outpost
in Chicago; even today only a few Long Island restaurants
Mastering the recipe and the intricacies of Roman-style pizza's highly wet
Cervoni subsequently opened Taglio — a play on "al taglio," Italian for "by the cut" or "by the slice," as Roman pizza is known in Rome — in September 2018
After a false start as a regular slice shop that also served artisanal pizza
Cervoni and business partner Domenico “Mimmo” Tolomeo in late 2021 began to focus on the fancy
Cervoni quickly became one of Pizza Today magazine's seven Rising Stars of the Pizzeria Industry 2022
Newsday has also included Taglio in its roundup of Long Island's best pizza
Cervoni the younger was recruited by "Chopped" last year
he shot his episode in October at Food Network's Manhattan studio
and their 2-year-old son but not at home: As coincidence has it
the episode airs during the first night of the 39th annual International Pizza Expo in Las Vegas
"Which is a wild coincidence," Rob Cervoni says
I wish it wasn't the case because I'd really like to watch it with my [parents and extended] family and not just a bunch of pizza people that I barely know," he adds
"But it's fun either way."
Chef Brendan McGill’s mini-empire grows today with the opening of his new Roman-style pizzeria downtown, Bar Taglio
The Bainbridge Island chef serves his take on classics like square pizza
The pizzas will have toppings like lobster mushrooms
and arugula grown on McGill’s Shady Acres Farm
Entree options include double lamb chop with anchovy-vinegar-garlic-rosemary emulsion and roasted
and Manila clams in aqua pazza with focaccia
There’s plenty of Italian influence in the drinks
and cocktails making up the bulk of the menu
which means diners can order caffè corretto—espresso with a splash of grappa or amaro
The space (822 First Ave) skews mid-century modern
with features like a 30-foot bar of tambour oak and walnut
the restaurant is open Monday through Saturday from 11 a.m

Taglio is open Sunday through Thursday from 11 a.m
By AJ Rathbun October 2
opened by chef Brendan McGill of Hitchcock fame
and (naturally) dove into the drinks before the pizza
and a “When In Rome” selection of three mini-martinis and caffè corretto (coffee with booze)
the two-ounce mini-martinis were amazing and fun
featuring locally made gins paired with different vermouths and garnishes
The Copperworks Malt Barrel Aged Gin version
with del Professore Classico vermouth and an olive or twist
Other versions include a Counter Old Tom Gin with a prosciutto garnish and a Big Gin with a tomato garnish—both were hard to resist
I found these mini-martinis a perfect size
each easily consumed “while it’s laughing at you” (which I take to mean while cold) as legendary Savoy bartender and author Harry Craddock said around 1930
they pair with the taglio-style pizza divinely
The pizza is $5 to $8 for a large square slice or you can grab a whole pie with up to six options from the list of 11
All slices I sampled boasted a nice little crusty crunch balanced by good chewy-ness
slightly thicker than what most envision as Italian pizza
with savory chanterelle and lobster mushrooms cozying up with lush Taleggio and Grana Padano cheeses
including Italian classic lager Peroni and wine leaning Italian-y
Don’t let that sway you far from the slices and those martinis—at least on your first visit to this Roman café-esque spot
with marble-topped tables on ornate stands

I am here to tell you about a Roman-style pizza not available in Coronado
We have our fair share of places to buy pizza on the island; I count ten
Of the traditional Italian styles of pizza
You can find both styles in Coronado’s own ‘Little Italy’ on the 1000 block of C Ave (our Little Italy consisting of Nado Gelato, Garage Buona Forchetta, and Nado Republic)
Buona Forchetta crafts Napoletana-style pizzas
If you have yet to go to Nado Republic for their pizza
it is a significant departure from the rest as the crust is crispy and cracker-like
Pizza al Taglio, another Roman pizza style, is unavailable on the island. Technically, Buona Forchetta puts a few pieces of this style in their deli case. However, the selection pales compared to their North Park store, Gelati & Peccati
Pizza al Taglio means “pizza by the cut.” This pizza cooks in a large rectangular pan before it gets cut into squares or long strips
like arugula or a drizzle of balsamic or olive oil
they cut the pizza with scissors and weigh them to determine the price
The counter at G & P has board after board of pizzas on display
a sea of gorgeous toppings from which to choose
The presentation allows the customer to see what they are ordering and also enables them to mix and match rather than commit to a whole pizza
The visual aids should make the decision more accessible
but they don’t; they make it ten times harder
which ones; maybe just one piece and some Gelato
I went with the Melone and the Ricotta E Mortadella
The Ricotta E Mortadella features mortadella ham
If my description of this little shop has not piqued your interest, then you have to watch Chef’s Table: Pizza, episode two, Gabriele Bonci. This episode explains how Rome’s esteemed pizzaiolo Gabriele Bonci and his restaurant Pizzarium in Rome took this style of pizza to a new level. This man whom Vogue Magazine’s food critic called the ”Michael Angelo” of pizza now has a location in Chicago apply named Bonci
The website for Gelati & Peccati is currently being updated
They no longer have a food truck in the Target parking lot in South Park and the hours of operation are as follows
I hope the Pizza al Taglio at Gelati & Peccati makes your list of fun things to try
I recently picked up a few different pizzas
and re-watched the Bonci episode; it was a real indulgence

PHOENIX — A recall has been issued for some cheeses made by Old Europe Cheese
The CDC says the brie and camembert cheese is being recalled due to possible listeria contamination
The agency so far is reporting six people falling ill because of the contaminated product
The cheeses are sold under multiple brand names
The products affected include those with best-by dates from September 28 to December 14
They were sold at multiple stores nationwide
The CDC urges those who have the product to not eat it and throw it away
They also suggest cleaning your refrigerator
and surfaces that may have had contact with the recalled cheese
as Listeria can easily spread to other foods and surfaces
and convulsions on top of a fever and muscle aches
Listeria can also cause pregnancy loss or premature birth in those that are expecting
It can also cause serious illness or death in newborns
Investigators are working to figure out if more products may have been contaminated

where you can’t walk more than a few blocks without stumbling across a small shop offering rectangular trays of pizza al taglio
some topped simply with tomato sauce (pizza rossa) or olive oil and sea salt (pizza bianca)
Use your hands to convey how big of a portion you want
and the pizzaiolo cuts the dough with scissors (al taglio means
is aiming for 100 stores in the US throughout the next few years
there’s an entire school in Miami dedicated to teaching chefs the right way to make al taglio
called the Roman Pizza Academy and spitting out alumni who are opening pizzerias in Arizona
What sets al taglio apart from its pizza siblings is the dough
meaning that you stick it in the fridge to rise
This combination results in some pretty fun science we’ll no doubt oversimplify here: The chilled temps slow down the yeast’s job without halting the work of the enzymes that break down the gluten during fermentation
so more gluten proteins are broken down -- yielding a less dense
more airy dough -- by the time your dough blob achieves the desired rise
which is a really long time in pizza years
The high moisture in the dough helps amplify what pros call a honeycomb
referring to the web of air bubbles formed
That puffed honeycomb layer in a rectangle of al taglio is anchored by a thin
thanks to a dual-temperature oven that can direct different heat levels to the top and bottom of the pie
There’s no way this can taste better than it looks,” says Roman Pizza Academy co-founder Alex Manzo
Courtesy of BonciWhen you survey the glittering landscape of pizza-behind-glass at an al taglio shop
all of that baking -- roughly 15 minutes a pan -- has already happened
You can either warm your chosen pizza at home
or have the pizzaiolo pop it into the shop’s front oven
so you can more quickly stuff the carbs into your gullet
If you’re taking friends out for al taglio and trying to drop some knowledge, two names you should know are Angelo Iezzi and Gabriele Bonci. The latter runs a place your Rome-visiting buds have likely bragged about going to, Pizzarium, where he makes not-quite-traditional al taglio, using more dough per pan to get a sky-high rise with crazy honeycomb action. Anthony Bourdain loved the guy
Bonci partnered with former Buca di Beppo CEO Rick Tasman to open his first pizzeria in the US -- the aforementioned Bonci in Chicago -- and people went crazy for slices topped with everything from scrambled eggs to meatballs bathed in cheese
who runs a pizzeria called Angelo e Simonetta in Rome
is credited with inventing the high-hydration
slow-fermentation process in the ’80s -- considered controversial then
“Angelo changed this [style of] pizza,” says Fabio Casella of New York’s San Matteo Pizzeria

Casella says the shop is already scouting its second location
Courtesy of BonciBut when it comes to pizza al taglio in the US
Massimiliano Saieva sits as a quiet pioneer; he’s been making the pizza for six years at his own spot called Pizzarium (not affiliated with Bonci’s spot in Rome)
Saieva joined forces with Manzo to open their growing pizza academy
which offers classes for industry and laypeople alike
complains that as tourism has grown in Rome
so has the number of pizzerias trying to take advantage of tourists by offering bad pizza al taglio
“You have a lot of people coming in trying to make a buck
their pizza looks great and the average tourist doesn’t know better
What I see in the United States [right now] is quite the opposite
People are focusing on quality.” In other words
these beginning stages of pizza al taglio are
and you may be seeing cut-rate pizza al taglio at the mall
“It presents itself well to what we want as Americans -- you stand in line
high-traffic.” Just remember: The day Starbucks adds a plastic-wrapped al taglio square to its coolers is the day this pizza has jumped the shark

with slices costing $8.99 to $18.99 per pound
Here’s hoping one of Rome’s best pizza makers can make it happen

CINCINNATI -- Brothers Jared and Nick Wayne know their way around a pizza.
As the longtime owners of A Tavola (with locations in Over-the-Rhine and Madeira), the duo opened a snug little takeout parlor, Taglio
the Waynes have been hard at work on both an expansion and a menu upgrade for Taglio
including the hyper-regional cult classic -- Detroit-style pizza.
and we're adding a 30-seat bar and at least 40 more seats
bringing our total to about 96," said Nick Wayne
"We'll have plenty of craft cocktails and 12 additional taps
some of which will be collaborations with local breweries for house beers
we've talked to Streetside and we're also meeting with 50 West
We'd like to keep it in the neighborhood."
They currently serve wine and beer by the bottle at Taglio.
I'm sitting in the restaurant on a quiet afternoon with the Waynes
as well as their Taglio collaborator (and director of operations for the A Tavola restaurants)
Chef Dan Messer prepared a few of Taglio's new pizzas for me to taste as construction workers hammered away on the other side of the wall.
Taglio 2.0 also will be the first Cincinnati pizza parlor to serve Detroit-style pizza
and supposedly they started using these motor-part pans to make pizza in," Jared Wayne said. "It creates a really caramelized crust
we bought some pans and started playing around with it
and then we traveled to Detroit to try some of the pizza."
9-by-14-inch rectangular pans with angled edges
The steel gets extremely hot during the gas-fired deck-oven cooking process
forming those crave-worthy crunchy corners associated with rival Italian comfort-food classics like baked ziti and lasagna.
When the brothers Wayne traveled to Detroit for research, they made sure to hit the big three -- Buddy's Rendezvous, Loui's and Cloverleaf -- in an effort to understand the Detroit pizza tradition. According to Nick Wayne, not to mention Detroit pizza lore (via an in-depth article from Eater Detroit)
Buddy's Rendezvous is "ground zero."
"What's so cool is that it can all be traced back to one guy," said Nick Wayne
owner of the 1930s speakeasy Buddy's Rendezvous
decided to expand the joint's hospitality ethos by adding food -- specifically his mother-in-law's Sicilian-style pizza -- in '46
and Guerra sold the business in '53.
Guerra quickly purchased a farmhouse bar called Cloverleaf
Although he chose to retain the name in the hopes of maintaining his Irish clientele
he also started serving his signature Sicilian slices to great acclaim.
a disgruntled Buddy's employee who had spent years honing his craft decided to go out on his own
French-born Louis Tourtois opened Loui's in '77 in Hazel Park
all three parlors trace their success directly to Guerra's mother-in-law's soft and airy Sicilian crust and the stripped-down toppings (at least by modern standards) that accompany it.
It's so unique that you don't need to mess with it," explained Jared Wayne
It's the real Italian expression -- the dough
and we are replicating it as close as we can
Although both brothers claim that Detroit-style crust is best enjoyed with the basic pepperoni
diners will be remiss if they don't sample it with the Spicy Italian or the Spinach and Ricotta options
All Taglio pizzas soon will have the option of Detroit-style crust
Detroit-style pizza and the expanded bar seating will be available at Taglio in early April
