| - Hello again Az foodies.....
I hope you are enjoying this beautiful Arizona weather :)
In my quest to find good pizza in my area I decided that I will have to go beyond the places that deliver....which are few pickins....and go to an actual pizza place.
Nicantoni's is pretty close, so we stopped by and found the place to be small yet very cute.
The girl who took our order was super friendly and the smells reminded me of those little N.Y pizza joynts.
I ordered a small (6 nice size slices) and made it a point to ask for "EASY SAUCE" and I also requested that they put the cheese all the way to the crust, so we can enjoy the cheese all the way down to the crust.
15 minutes later we picked up our pipping hot pizza and couldnt wait to experience what we hope would be a good pizza......
We opened the box and alas..... the cheese covered about 3/4 of the slices and the sauce was ample....now if you recall, I asked for EASY SAUCE.
Now, we enjoy a little grease on our pizza but when you pick up a slice and fold it over and the grease saturates an entire napkin(the thicker napkins, not the little one ply),,, I would have to say ..... thats just a wee bit too much grease!
The first 3 bites had nice flavor, then came that 4th bite and along with the bite what was left of the cheese.
That left a 1/4 of the slice, sitting there with all that sauce and crust and NO toppings.
So, I tossed that and on to another slice....same thing, a few bites and thats it for the toppings.
Although I am from Chicago and enjoy pan pizza and the Chicago squares...I also visited N.Y often enough that I love their pizza as well.
Would I go back? Probably not, but if I did I will make sure I tell them AGAIN exactly what I want and take my chances.
They do give you a token with each pizza and after 10 of them you get a free pizza, which is a nice gimick.....btw..... anyone out there want my token?
I dont think we will be there enough to ever get our freebie.
So as I always say...well usually always....go...try...see what you think.
And until you do....
Bon Appetite'
