And while we're at it, how about a top 5? Mine, in no particular order, are:

Cheese (Escape From New York Pizza, Portland) Eggplant (Roma Pizza, Brooklyn) Olive & Mushroom (Escape From New York Pizza, Portland) Feta & Sundried Tomato (Oasis Pizza, Portland) Pesto (Guido's, a place in San Jose that's now long gone...) Pineapple (Anywhere)

That's six in my top five, then. Fookin' starved now... :food:

and skint as well... :\ohwell:

I like the pan dish style, with the thick crust. Where did that come from?

I figured someone might prefer Neapolitan. But I've yet to have a pizza in Italy that compares to New York pizza.

Crab cream cheese cashews pepperoni black olives mozzerella cheese

just like Ron. Pizza is an Italian business. And the simplier they are, the better they are... but it is just a point of view.

Deep dish is good for special occasions, maybe (or just every once in a while) but for everyday consumption I gotta go with New York style :shrug:

My favorite pizza of all time, though, was the rectangular kind they used to serve at my high school, which came all in a sheet that was cut up and served with grease, cheese, and some sort of odd squarish substance that we were told was supposed to be "pepperoni". The prefered method of consuming this was to roll it up into a burrito-shaped structure and eat it as such. Good times...:nod:

Chicago is my favorite then. Still I like New York style and especially the Sicilian style. I love thick crusts :food:

Chicago is fine-but somehow the New York Style with cheese and tons of olive oil makes me quiver.

the HUGE slices that you have to fold in half to enjoy and the greasy oly drippings.......:food:

and ok the tops are cheese, more cheese, pepperoni, meat etc

NO pineapple, cream cheese, no duck, no California Pizza Kitchen style fusion stuff-it's fine but it's chic chic not Pizza

I really like pizza hut's, and Toppers - a pizza chain mostly in northern ontario (I'm from North Bay :P) Here in Ottawa is a place called Paesano's which is really good and reminds me a lot of Toppers

In terms of toppings, I like only Hawaiian pizza...sometimes I'll have pep and cheese, but only if the pep isn't spicy (I have a low tolerance for spicy foods...most pepperoni is spicy to me)

Thin crust for me every time, whichever that is. Can't do all that deep pan shite.

That New York pizza looks a little thick in the crust there, cath. ;)

Peely, as the gourmand you claim to be, how on earth can you say Italian? I've had pizza in every city in Northern Italy (well, perhaps not *every* city), and have yet to find a pizza that can stand in the same league as the pizzas I've had here in the U.S. Now, admittedly, I haven't been to Naples, and perhaps, just perhaps, a good Neapolitan pizza is out there waiting to change my mind, but until I find it, New York pizza reigns supreme.

Woodsy knows. :nod:

Had New York style pizza at John's Pizzeria in Greenwich, supposed to be one of the top five joints in NYC, and it was .....ok, but not the best.

Imho, its the tomato sauce that makes the pizza not the crust. :food:
