NY Style pizza in KC?

Sorry to disappoint you all but I lived over 10 years in new york and every chance I got I go back just to taste the Italian food and pizza there....and D Bronx does not even hold a candle to good new york pizza. ...good new york pizza has a slightly sweet sauce...DBronx has a slightly salty and bitter sauce...so not in the same ball park. I hope we get a good pizza place someday....maybe the new one opening up (the art of Pizza) with do the trick....Avelluto's Il Trullio on metcalf has great wood fired pizza but it is a more gourmet type pizza ( I was not wild about the Avelluto's Italian Delight in Shawnee...not nearly as good as the one on metcalf...but again you are comparing apples to donuts) and Cinzentis also has great pizza, again wood fired more upscale types....and Papa Keno's in downtown overland park has good pizza...I would consider it much more NY stype than DBronx and much better...I get it with extra sauce and tomottoes....but it is pricey...but you get what you pay for there and it is back up and running... and Original Pizza is ok a bit better than the DBronx in my opinion....but again does not have the passion that real NY pizza has....

I had one bite of Papa Kenos one time and seemed good but would not recommend til I tried more....
