One of the things I crave when coming to NYC is pizza. In particular, Brooklyn pizza. When I was last in Brooklyn with my father we went to Di Fara<\/a> and Totonno\u2019s<\/a>. Both were fantastic, though we didn\u2019t get to try out the third famous heavyweight of Brooklyn \u2013 Patsy Grimaldi\u2019s. Today we walked across the Brooklyn Bridge to correct that omission.<\/p>\n Grimaldi\u2019s flagship location is located in the DUMBO<\/a> area of Brooklyn, just on the other side of the Manhattan and Brooklyn Bridges. Walking down Fulton St, you will see the line outside Grimaldi\u2019s from a few blocks away. On line, the owner will ask the size of your party and then fill tables to maximize people, which often means that 4-person parties get a table long before the couples. Either way, the line moves pretty quickly. And once you\u2019re inside, the pizza you get is more than worth the wait. <\/p>\n All of Grimaldi\u2019s pizza are cooked in a 1200 degree coal-fired brick oven, which turns around a cheese pizza in about 3 minutes. The crust is crispy, chewy, and a little smoky; absolutely perfect. Don\u2019t be deceived by the sparse looking mozzarella cheese. The mildly sweet tomato sauce hides the fact that underneath is a full layer of deliciously flavorful mozzarella that comes from free range cows and is worlds better than the flavorless mozzarella you get from your local supermarket.<\/p>\n Overall we had a great time and awesome pizza at Grimaldi\u2019s. Is it the best pizza in New York? possibly. But I\u2019ll have to conduct a Brooklyn pizza faceoff across Di Fara, Totonno\u2019s, and Grimaldi\u2019s to know for sure \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
