New Jersey pizza beats New York for best pizza in America
Fox News
New Jersey is named best pizza state in America by Food & Wine.
"New Jersey is the best place to eat pizza in the country right now. The state is one in an elite group remaining true to their heritage, through long periods of time when others were too busy crashing ahead into the future to care about theirs," Food & Wine senior editor David Landsel reported in his ranking published earlier this week. Landsel, a native New Yorker, sang the praises of Jersey City’s Razza, known for its wood fire pies and craft Italian beer. The Grove Street destination features menu highlights like its signature Margherita pie using ingredients straight from the Garden State. The food writer also championed Bread & Salt, another Jersey City staple boasting thin-crust, Roman-style pizza. Nabbing the No. 2 spot on the list of doughy supremacy is Connecticut. New Haven, known for its coal-fired pizza, has become a tourist destination for its thin-crust, well-done, crispy pies with more sauce than cheese at institutions like Frank Pepe Pizzeria Napoletana and nearby Sally’s Apizza, founded in 1930.More Related News
