    Neither of you have the slightest idea of what you're talking about, it seems...

    The Italians make the best pizza. No question. The greeks are a close second.

    Americans have an obsession with calling anything that has pie crust, tomato sauce, cheese, and various ingredients Pizza. Which in fact, is not pizza at all, but it still doesn't mean it isn't awesome. Real Italian Pizza is just a glorified shepherds pie, imo. It isn't bad, by any means at all, but we've annexed the term here for own diabolical and delicious ends, the rest will just have to get over the fact. Like China refuses to give up Tibet on basis that it's rightfully Chinese Territory, us Americans refuse to give up the term Pizza, not because we invented it, but because it was there for the taking.

    Our genes maybe in the basement but it does not stop us chosing our point of view from the top.

    Italian Pizza is just pizza with no crust and covered in tomato, mozerella and bazil. Everything they serve has those 3 indegredients.

    That would be the best O'pazzo's, not the best pizza's unless you mean the best pizzas.

    Looks like a nice restaurant though.

    Also a big crust is just like eating cookies/bread, if I want cookies I'll buy cookies/bread, some people seem to care more about the crust than the actual pizza.

    Been there, done that, and it's somewhere near Chicago. Though in all fairness, Italians did have a huge hand in American pizza as well. Call it an update.

    I think it's a bit too late for that. This thread is thoroughly tainted with cheese and pepperoni.
