do tell how to mkae better pizza than local places as i hate giving all my money to dominoes. Is it really that easy to make a base?
I had toad in the hole with baked beans and a mountain of grated cheese on top for tea, washed down with a 1.5ltr Mountain Dew.
Dim Sum last night for dinner.
Pasta and risotto are my staples
If i’m feeling mega flush (and it’s a special treat), I must admit I do like taking the missus to somewhere fancy. For our anniversary I took her to the Fat Duck which is Heston Blumenthal’s place.
He does crazy shit there like snail porridge and bacon and egg ice cream. Sound disgusting but is literally mind blowing.
He also does stuff like bringing out an ipod in a shell with the sounds of the sea playing while you eat a fresh oyster…
It’s like a once in a lifetime experience. It’s dear but it’s honestly worth it. I look at it like it’s the cost of going out twice to a decent place.
Almost drug like reactions from the amazing flavors…

Thx Bento! I already used this to have ideas of where to have dinner

mm i live in chicago - land of the most decadent pizza known to man…
chicago or new york city style - the one thing they have in common: the crust has to be made with HIGH heat ovens. thats why dominoes suck as well as the majority of home made shit - youve got to make it in high heat furnaces, regardless of the style
@ diezdiazgiant you can’t forget about Boston style either If you’ve never been to the north end, you’re seriously missing out. But I do like Chicago style better than NY 
mmm, BigC, if you are in boston, check out COPPA down in the south end on shawmut ave. Some of my family runs that restaurant. Plan to make a night of it though, they are really small (40ish seats inside, 24 seat patio). Thankfully, you can hop over to the bar across the street, and the hostess will call you when there is seating available. Theyve got a woodfire oven, tons of wacky pizzas, and overall a great menu selection.
I find that ~ 550-600 is somewhat acceptable for home made pizza. I plan on building a woodfire brick oven this summer though.
