If they don’t sell slices they know a slice of their pizza isn’t good enough to make you want the full pie

There are some people who will never have New York style pizza simply because they don’t live close enough to a place with enough foot traffic to warrant the vending of a hand food

I grew up by a spot that did this. It was the go-to spot after games and weekends. All the did was bake a cheese pizza and sit out. When you asked for a slice, they'd throw those toppings and a little extra cheese over them and heat it back up.


Does this count as "quality"? Cause :ld:

Sbarro kills this whole argument :scust:
Sbarro’s could be good if they baked at higher temperatures, baked with thinner dough. Unlike Domino’s, Pizza Hut and Little Caesars - I do not consider Sbarro’s to be “manufactured pizza product“

the ingredients, albeit the inferior oil, adhere to the standard of pizza

Sbarro’s is not New York style pizza though, the style is equivalent to some of the dollar slices there it’s just in mall pizza form

if you’re in NYC there is a place called Scarr’s and if you’re in San Francisco or Las Vegas there is Slice House by Tony Gemignani - both of these places refer to these slices as New York style but they are essentially Sbarro’s style done right - thinner dough. Sbarro’s in higher quality is essentially the “premium style slice” - it’s heartier and if you’re in a place where you need to sell at a higher price point this is the template you use, but with better ingredients

the problem is they bake at low temperature and they don’t stretch their dough out enough because they likely can’t consistently higher people that wouldn’t tear the dough if they did so

Who don’t sell pizza by the slice? :what:

NY, Detroit, Philly all sell pizza by the slice
towny places in Missouri, Idaho, Iowa - they have the mainstream corporate pizza presence and maybe one or two towny “house of pizza“ type places with a large menu of other things that typically appeal to those who want takeout

Dominoes, Hungry Howies, JETS Pizza, Little Caesar’s, Cottage Inn are all headquartered in Michigan and we have plenty of places to get pizza by the slice
