Comments on: Worst Press Release Ever? http://www.princeofpetworth.com/2008/02/worst-press-release-ever/ Welcome to the beautiful life Mon, 15 Mar 2010 09:57:49 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.1 hourly 1 By: Barrie http://www.princeofpetworth.com/2008/02/worst-press-release-ever/#comment-93974 Barrie Mon, 11 Feb 2008 19:20:54 +0000 http://www.princeofpetworth.com/?p=1580#comment-93974 Thanks to indiecognition for the pizza recommendations! I have been in DC 3 years and have given up on food in general in DC...it really sucks! So I will try these places. Coming from RI home of the best Italian food and home of Johnson and Wales Culinary School and on top of that I went to school right next to the CIA in NY, I got spoiled by the finest Chefs in America.... So a NY'er giving pizza advice is worth taking. I remember when I first moved here there was a survey on NBC4 about chefs pay saying it was highest in Las Vegas and that DC chef pay was 26k less than those in Vegas.... and the newscaster was commenting DC has some of the finest chefs in the US.... well having travel the global and a lot of the US.... I think NBC4 needs a newscaster with taste buds...because most restaurants in DC should be ashamed of themselves.... these places have cooks not chefs...So thanks again indiecognition….cause in Brooklyn these pizza joints would last about a NY second!!

I've never gotten sick and their tomato sauce is tasty. To each his own I guess.... I actually think Manny & Olga’s is the best of the non-brick oven style / normal pizza places.

Their pizza is really good and the slices are hella huge. I can vouch for the aforementioned Alberto’s. Their pizza is really good and the slices are hella huge.

Seriously, anyone who orders Manny and Olga's for any reason other than their staying open past 4am, when nobody is sober enough to know a decent pizza, deserves food poisoning. On a slightly more serious DC pizza note, yeah we have few options for anything decent...but if you havent, try Duccini's www.duccinis.com or better yet, Albertos www.albertospizzeria.com, Radius www.radiusdc.com, 2 Amys www.2amyspizza.com, or Matchbox www.matchboxdc..com (2 Amys and Matchbox don't deliver). This advice comes from a NYC pizza fan (faves there: Joe's on Carmine near Bleecker, 2Boots, John's, and the classic Brooklyn/DUMBO spots I went to as a kiddo). Stop putting up with Manny, Olga, Domino, Boli, Jumbo, and all the other DC shitzza.

My wife is fine with it, but every single time it's like I found a carton of sour cream in the back yard and ate it.
