Pizza Slice Crisis in NYC: The Ray's Syndrome
I agree Ed, manhattan's pizza slices suck. They have been going downhill for a while now. I find Sicilian slices are the only slices worth buying these days. It seems it takes more time and effort to produce the Siclian slice. The neo slices in Manhattan are cookie cutter and most have no taste or don't even taste like pizza as we remembered it. I miss the old days when you could walk into an unknown pizza joint and sample a great tasting slice you never tasted before and felt the rush of something great. Now you wouldn't dare try a new place unless it was recommended by someone unless you were starving. What can we do?
The Best Bagel in New York City
Ed I also am a big fan of absolute but the Flagel's (a flat bagel that is very cruchy and very little dough) at Goldberg's in Ft. Lee NJ and on Hgwy 27 in Hampton Bays are the best. Once you try one of these you will never go back to the doughy bagel. Goldberg's claims to have invented them but I have seen them in other places but not as good.

Freddie and Peppers Siclian Pie is to die for what they make it. The pie takes a long time to make so they don't do it often but when they do I buy at least 4 slices and freeze them, great reheated in a toaster oven.
You can't beat Sal's regular slices though. Sorry to hear about Sal he was one of kind.
