| - So my favorite pizza that is not New York or Chicago is Antico in Atlanta, which could be my only comparison. I was going to eat a slice and write my review but this pizza was SO good I had to eat half my pizza first.
I don't typically compare other types of pizzas but in ATL, Antico wins, in the Bay Area, Zachary's (Chicago style) wins. In Charlotte, Inizio wins.
Ordering a 12" Raffaele, I took my first bite and immediately was hit with the sweet pepper contrasting to a tomato sauce that had balanced acidity. Next bite had sausage with a hint of spice, enough heat right next to the crunch of the onion. The crust light yet toasted.
Washed down with a crisp Orange Sanpellegrino, and I was a happy camper. Variety of gelato but I went with the Cannoli, stuffed to order. The ricotta, vanilla, nutmeg center is fresh and AMAZING.
Guess I'll have to head home and recaffeinate with some Forte Legato Coffee, as this is an experience that could put you to sleep, warm and content.
