Hot pizza, cold pizza; thick pizza, thin pizza; soft pizza, crispy pizza; round pizza...long pizza?Why, look at you. I don't think I've ever had long pizza, and I do believe I will take you.
Matt and I were at L'asso on Mott near Kenmare, and we indulged in the long, thin and crispy, sliced on the diagonal. It came on these cute long trays that I now want to own and do many things with, I do not know what.

On one side, we had the Tartufo: portobello pesto, mushrooms, mozzarella, rosemary and truffle oil.

And far on the other side, the San Daniele: tomato sauce, mozzarella, arugula, prosciutto and parmesan. I loved both sides, and I liked reaching. It's not the pizza you think of when you think of New York City...

...and neither is the coffee, although it looks like it. It's Stumptown. And it does the body good.

That pizza looks really good! I've never had long pizza. But really, any pizza variety appeals to me. Great toppings!
It looked like an open-faced Italian sub sandwich! I want one!
joanne--from now on, i will only order long pizzas in the hopes of elongating myself. seems logical.
buffalodick--it's true! it does look like a sub! hah. perfect for football season.
New to me too. I like the idea and the pan also.
Those New Yorkers...so inventive and hip.
I used to have pizza llike this one, long and cooked on a stone oven heated with wood in Punta del Este, Uruguay, where they made pizza as good as the one in Napoli .. but that was LONG time ago!
I love this ! Definitely more crust on there than the conventional version....and thats my favorite part !... Awesome choice of toppings too...
Glad to see you are finally getting some good coffee in your part of the country to go with the good pizza. Now if you could only reciprocate and send us some good pizza, all would be right in the world.
