Pizzeria Da Michelle in Naples, Italy

Grande Pizza Company Boca Raton

I scored a Groupon coupon for this place and although I didn't even try the pizza until the second visit I have been back for more three times.

This is not your typical pizza joint. You walk in past a tall counter behind which sits the pizza ovens. The place opens up into a large room with a big U shaped bar and several tables. Then when I tasted the food and I KNEW it was different!

"Grillin' a Frozen Pizza" by The Chuckwagon Cowboy

Here's a great video explaining how to grill a frozen pizza. Let me know if you learn anything from it!

Vito's Gourmet Pizza of Boynton Beach

Michelle and I took in a movie on Monday evening. It was a cute romantic comedy called "Friends With Benefits," at the Cinemark Boynton Beach. After the movie, at about 9:30pm, we wanted to find a place where we could get a pizza before going home. Most of the places we have frequented, including Dominic's right across Congress, would be closing around that time but I remembered driving by a place a few blocks away on the North side of Boynton Beach Blvd a block or two East of Congress.

Tucci's Fire N Coal Pizza

"Have you been to Tucci's?" One of my bloggers asked. "They've got the best pizza in South Florida," he continued.

So I made it a point to check out the pizza at Tucci's, located near Palmetto Park Road and Federal Highway in downtown Boca. It was a little tricky getting there since you can't go North on NE 1st Ave from Palmetto Park Road, so I had to circle a couple of blocks. Parking can be a challenge. Since it was after regular working hours I was able to find a spot in the lot next door.

John's NY Pizza & Pasta

We were meeting Illona and Steve someplace halfway between my home in Delray Beach and their place in Pembroke Pines. I suggested Commercial Blvd. "Just head west from the Turnpike and we'll go to the first interesting place we pass," I said.

Then Steve saw the sign, "Grand Opening," so we swerved right in and boy am I glad we did.

Villa Rose Pizza: What's Old Is New Again!

They don't even have a website but this long time Hollywood pizza joint has withstood the coming and going of thousands of other pizza places in the Hollywood area. Why? Because they still make the best pizza in town.

The Best Pizza in the World

I'm tired of it. Worn out hearing it. I almost choke whenever it is uttered. But it will never go away.

"It's the water," they say.
"New York pizza is the best pizza in the world!"
"You can only get good pizza in Chicago!"
"Little Italy, the best!"

The fact about it is that good pizza is everywhere. Good pizza is like music. Each person has their own specific preference for what is the best. One person likes thin and another likes thick. How can you argue?

"If it isn't thin with a crispy crust, piping hot with grease running down your fingers as you try to funnel the tip into your mouth, then it isn't REAL pizza!"
                                                  

Just like anything else, everyone has an opinion. And when I tell them,"I went to NY. I ate pizza. No big deal. Didn't taste any "better" than what I eat in South Florida at one of my favorite pizza joints."

"Well, then," they reply, "you didn't get it from the right place!"

Now, it's not only the right water, and the right city, but it has to be the right pizza joint!
