All this talk of pizza made hungry for some.

And no it wasn't Carmine's or Tony's. 

Mariella's on Metropolitan ?

Tony’s is great for regular slices, or a pepperoni slice.

Carmine’s is great for their specialty slices - the upside down L&B style, the Italian flag slice with pesto, or the hipstery super topping slices that seem to be all the rage lately. Carmine’s also has great food and the sports bar nextdoor when it was actually opened. BUT Carmine’s regular slice leaves a lot to be desired. The brick oven dries out the sauce and despite what 8yr old Pete says about mozzarella, the key to a good slice of pizza is the sauce and the oil. And for a good regular, Tony’s is it. 

I will deal with this later.  Talking to Steph C right now.

I thought @PeteFromPetesBasement was a figment of Buzzetta's imagination, not a real person.  Kind of like one of kav's many imaginary friends that he tells stories of. 

:hi: Pete!

Thread has been derailed but we have a big controversy between @Buzzetta and @PeteFromPetesBasement vis-a-vis Tony's v Carmine's pizza.

Actually it was between @Buzzetta and @BlowUpTheMoon. 

@PeteFromPetesBasement just disproved that you can only go to one or the other, but not both.

lol I one time called up a friend of mine and said that another friend and I were going to get pizza and asked if he wanted to join us.  Said we would swing by and pick him up.  What we didn't tell him was that we were going to drive for 45 minutes to L&B.  We were already on the Southern State by the time he realized what was going on. lol

Last time I was passing through on the southern side of Brooklyn by car was coming home from a wedding in New Jersey.   Stopped off and grabbed a pizza to take home but stopped off at Brennan and Carr for lunch.
