Btw, the best pizza we’ve had in FL has been from Guido’s in Brooksville, and Paul’s in St. Pete and Clearwater. Both perfected their craft in.....Chicago.
Both are long drives. Anyone got any secret thin crust gems to share?! |

Flippers is pretty good
We like Flippers, for that style pizza. There is NO "one size fits all" when talking about food - or anything else for that matter. You gotta try it yourself.

Flippers pizza is good. Especially the thin crust with anchovies.

Being a Brooklyn gal, there's nothing like pizza from 18th Ave and 86st street in Bensonhurst. Also Spumoni Gardens. I have tried the pizza and calzone at Bravo Pizzeria in LSL and it was pretty darn good. I have even eaten pizza in Italy , and very different from what I'm used to.

I would agree if I was walking down the street and it started pouring and had no umbrella. Would be a great place to stand out of the rain.
Pizza not so much. |

Always wonder how Dennys even survives especially after looking at their buffet

You only think you know pizza until you spend time in Italia, specifically the Napoli, Amalfi Coast area.
Start with double zero Italian flour. Roll the dough out to a thin crust. spread a little EVOO (extra virgin olive oil) over the dough then a pinch of sea salt. Ladle a thin layer of fresh tomato sauce made from ripe San Marzano tomatoes. Add a few slices of fresh made Mozzarella and bake in a 700 degree wood fired pizza oven. Then top with fresh Prosciutto and Basil. Mangia!! The closest I've come in the US to this culinary marvel is Eataly in Chicago which employs professional pizza makers from Italy. But Flippers does a pretty good job.

We think pasta is much better in Italy but pizza not so much. They do not put enough cheese to suit our taste. |

That's the way it's supposed to be. Like pasta dishes, you on't want one item to drown out the rest. Cheese in Italy is a highlight. Here, it's a main ingredient, sort of like "you want pizza crust with your cheese?"
