Before leaving New York City for Dubai, there was just one thing I had to do and that was to visit as many NYC pizzerias as I could…in one day.
So today, I gathered a troop of pizza lovers on a culinary journey to 6 of NYC’s best pizza joints: John’s, Grimaldi’s, Carmine’s, Lombardi’s, Patsy’s of Harlem, and Luzzo’s. And we also visited a smathering of bars because what else goes best with pizza but beer?
Having grown up in NYC, I can’t believe that I hadn’t been to a single one of these pizza places. But today, even though it took us 12 hours, we made it to all 6 and tasted them all!
Here was our itinerary with a pizza quiz that I created for all the Pizza and Beer Crawl participants (click below for a larger image):

I can now say from first-hand experience that all the places we visited had great pizza and I’m not sure if it was the beer but the pizzas kept getting better throughout the day.
I found Patsy’s to be my favorite “classic-style” pizza as its slices reminded me most of the pizza of my youth.
But the place that I would like to go back to right away would be Luzzo’s…or maybe Carmine’s. Mmm…pizza.
What’s your favorite NYC pizza joint?
