Patsy's pizzeria

Patsy's pizzeria is one of the oldest pizza places still around, and a classic pizza of the coal-fired variety. The original is in Harlem, and Patsy's and their offshoot restaurants have been among the best pizza in New York for as long as anyone can remember.

Today some friends and I went to eat at the Patsy's on 23rd Street. It was surprisingly empty at 12:30 on a Friday. We ordered two pies, a plain pie, and an olive pie.

The pizza was quite good. Like many of it's kind, some of the slices were partially soggy. However, the rest of the pizza was excellent, with a great crust, a tasty sauce, and excellent quality mozzarella.

After this pizza, I still need to try Grimaldi's (a Patsy's offshoot, in fact), DiFara's and Una PIzza Napolentana.
