Every week, I document another dish that impressed and satiated me during my food adventures around New York City
I promise this blog will not be turning into a review site for frozen pizzas. Although some of you may actually be excited about that prospect.
This is the second frozen pizza I’ve discovered from local New York pizzerias that has made my quarantine situation a whole lot better.
And it’s funny, if you had asked me before all this about the best local pizzeria that makes a frozen version, I probably would have come up with Table 87. But I had yet to try it until this pandemic.
I used to visit Table 87 pretty often on the Brownstone Brooklyn tour and I would talk about their frozen pizza since they had success with it from appearing on Shark Tank. I always loved their freshly baked coal oven slices (as did my tour groups), but I figured I never ate frozen pizza so why should I seek it out? Until now.
I was grabbing some quick groceries at my nearby bodega when I saw the logo sticking out of the freezer case so I had to grab it.
This is quite different than the puffy wood-fired Roberta’s frozen pizza I reviewed recently. It’s much thinner and actually crisps up even crisper. Somehow it’s deep brown and actually crunchy. How has this been sitting in my freezer for a few weeks?
It gets as close to classic New York style coal oven pizza as I can get in my small urban apartment without doing proper take-out.
It was everything I always said it was and possibly even more. If anyone knows any other great local New York pizzas out there freezing their pizzas, let me know. I’ll be more than willing to try it in this scary new world.
