With Pizza, Toppings Are Crucial
RECEIVED Mon., Jan. 19, 2009
Dear Editor,
Very much enjoyed your reviews of some of the smaller, stand-alone pizza joints [“Indie Pizzas,” Food, Nov. 14, 2008]. I would have added one more index, however. Did each mouthful, each bite, garner roughly an equal amount of toppings? I have found at some places that there is some topping here but not over there. I want each bite to have roughly the same taste. I grew up on the East Coast – guilty as charged. I also like to know what sort of oven – gas, electric, or wood – is used. Pizza has improved greatly in the last 20 years here in town. I discovered Niki's Pizza in '83 when I moved here. Still my favorite. Take care, and happy 2009.
