Judging Pizza – New York Pizza

By Prince Of Petworth

New York Pizza is located in the old chicken spot (either Popeyes or KFC, can’t remember which) on North Capitol Street, NE not far from Florida Ave. A buddy of mine lives nearby and says it’s decent. For folks that live in Eckington/Bloomingdale have you tried it out yet? Is it better than fast food chicken?

For folks that live in this area, please also let me know if there are any other restaurants nearby that I should check out. And in other North Capitol news, I was recently emailed the North Capitol Street Cloverleaf Feasibility Study.

Newest Adams Morgan Pizza Option – Piccante Pizza

By Prince Of Petworth

Piccante Pizza is now open at 2120 18th Street, NW in Adams Morgan. I walked by in the late morning as the place was opening up so I didn’t get to try the pizza but the space, while small, looks pretty cool. Anyone happen to try the pizza yet?

Vote Red Rocks for Washingtonian Pizza Poll

By Prince Of Petworth

From a reader:

“Red Rocks is against Flippin Pizza neck and neck for Washingtonian’s best pizza in washington competition. Never eaten at flippin so they could be perfectly good pizza, but it is important to note that they don’t actually have a store within the DC city limits, and they are a California-based chain operation who mobilized members of their club by offering them a free pizza if Flippin wins. So they are most likely getting votes from people outside the DC area. The voting ends tomorrow at noon, and they are ahead right now by a slim margin.

This isn’t to say that their efforts aren’t “fair” since all’s fair in pizza wars… but two can play at that game! So I was hoping you could plug Red Rocks and mobilize your readers to participate in the vote and maybe RR can pull it out.”

Coming Soon – Piccante Pizza

By Prince Of Petworth

Piccante Pizza is coming to 2120 18th Street in Adams Morgan. 18th Street is a pretty competitive pizza spot with over a half dozen spots already. It’ll be interesting to see if this spot can differentiate itself from the others. But look how happy it’ll make you:

Judging Restaurants – Italy Pizza and Baffetto

By Prince Of Petworth

One of my favorite topics for sure. So this past weekend I was discussing pizza with some friends and two spots were mentioned that I was unfamiliar with. First is Italy Pizza at 634 Florida Ave, NW.

Second is Baffetto at 2005 18th Street, NW:

What’s the scoop on these places. Great pizza or only good when you’ve had a few beers?

Judging Pizza – Duccini’s

By Prince Of Petworth

Duccini’s is located at 1778 U St, NW. I’m always on the hunt for good pizza and we’ve certainly discussed the topic at length. But I think it’s worth exploring good slices of pizza. I enjoy Moronis and Red Rocks etc. But sometimes I’m just looking for a slice. I think hands down Vace’s (Cleveland Park) has the best per slice pizza. Pete’s (Columbia Heights) is also good. But I’m wondering if there are other good per slice places. So how’s Duccini’s? Any other recommendations for per slice spots?
