100 BEST ’14: PIZZA DEL RE at KESTÉ

Pizza del Re at KESTÉI’ve been raving about the perfect wood-fired Neapolitan pies at Kesté since this blog began (in fact, it was my first review back in 2009). Well, I’m pleased to say 5 years later, they’re still turning out perfectly charred pizzas with a crisp, pillowy crust. The Pizza del Re is one of their best, topped with housemade mozzarella, prosciutto di parma, mushrooms, and a superb truffle spread. Price: $21
