It just figures it would take some out-of-towner's to point out the best restaurants in NY. If Tony weren't in Canada this week skiing, he'd add a thing or two.
There's a Pizza restaurant in Brooklyn called Grimaldi's under the Brooklyn Bridge that makes Pizza in a coal fired brick oven. They never let the oven go out. They only sell whole pies, no slices and sometimes the line is down the street. They claim to have the best in Brooklyn.
And they there's Dominicks in the Bronx. No menus, tell them what you want to eat, family style. The safest block in the Bronx. The Cadillac's are lined up and down the street if you know what I mean. We have some good ones here just like across the pond.
Bon Appetit!
Best,
Warren
