New England Mod & Meetup Thread:

I love pizza but honestly I'm from Massachusetts so I wouldn't know what "good pizza" tastes like.

 

How. Dare. You.

I don't even like pizza, but I loooove burnt cheese mmmmm

 

Uh uh.

New York. Dough on stones. Thin and crispy the size of my face. Don't make me get John Stewart up in here.

 

Rob you are this close to pepes - not the Warwick shenanigans, the real deal. Come to Providence you got nice slice, Napolitanos, you got Antonio's in Pawtucket (I think they closed Thayer but I could be wrong), you got a sleeper agent in Seekonk named Provolones does it by the slice, you got Fellini's down by the Providence river.

You're in Boston regularly - mass Ave, little joint called New York Pizza. You go through Utica, you got Johnny's Pizza in Utica.

We are 100000% spoiled being this close to NY.

When I was in Houston I wanted to get a slice. When I'm used to here I can just Google "new york pizza Manchester" and turns out there's a passing pizza shop in Manchester, or anywhere. Down in Houston they're so far away they (a) F it up, and (b) can do whatever they want and everyone around thinks it's the bees knees. It was not even close. The ONLY thing they got right was the pepperoni (which they used the wrong one) slices going on after the pie comes out of the oven. The dough, the sauce, the cheese, the ratios, it was all jacked up.

 

South Shore Bar Pizza > all.

Anything else is Wonderbread, ketchup and Kraft singles.

 

I'll have to check these places out.

I'm up that way often, but much rather enjoy the delicious Asian food when I'm up that way.

 

I wish I was into Asian food. Outside of an occasional General’s Chicken anything else is meh.

I have the food palate of an 8 year old, though.

 

Vietnamese food is so good. I almost didn't eat American food for months after trying it. An authentic Chinese restaurant is really good too. (You won't find the General's chicken or crab Rangoons at these places). It's funny how much more respect you'll get for simply knowing how to use chopsticks at many places too.

 

Seeing that we are on this pizza discussion. I live 10 minutes away from Little Italy (Wooster Street, New Haven). Some of the best pizza in the world but I like like Modern Apizza on State Street.

 

I’ve actually been to China for work. I had to learn chop sticks, but after unknowingly eating donkey and being served chicken feet and heads, duck heads and some random rib cage with meat on it and having to come up with reasons to eat none of that, I’m good.

 

I think we have better standards here . I've been to places here that have served pigs feet and chicken feet and chicken hearts. They taste ok, but it's a lot of work for so little meat.

 

Come on a soup dumpling run sometime. It's like a rapid fire relay race of food

 

No cheese burned into the pan under the crust, no cares

 

I haven't been to Jahanger in Providence yet. Keep forgetting I need to get there. Maybe I'll finally commit to it this week.

Thai food doesn't use chopsticks. I learned that recently. Or a mix of them. They used forks to convince the British they were modern and didn't need to be colonized.

Tell me more. Seen them but never gone.

I will fight you.

 

@Brownmatthall change the meeting location were going to Frank Pepe's

@DoubleRGirl

 

You can go to Quincy. Easier than Boston. We usually go super hungry, order way too much, chaos

 

Only thought there was one. Now I see Burlington, and Watertown.

 

I support it
