I've done DiFara's but who is #2
Another vote for Lucali's. Great pizza and, in my opinion, a much more pleasant atmosphere than what you'll find at Grimaldi's (which tends to be overrun with tourists).
Lucali's - what's going on?
I've been twice in the past week and both times the pies were not nearly as good as on several previous visits. Here's what I noticed:
1) The crust - thicker, barely any crispiness (even had a soggy spot on one of the pies)
2) The cheese - much more on each pie than in the past
While the pies were still good, and better than your average pizza, to me they were not the pies that earned Lucali's a 27 Zagat rating.
Has anyone had a similar experience?
Slices of Cake in Carroll Gardens/Cobble Hill
You might want to check Tazza on Henry St. They sometimes have cakes from Baked and you can order by the slice.
Cafe on Clinton
Does anyone know what is going on with Cafe on Clinton? I walked by last night around 8:30 and it was closed. Is it closed for good?
lucali's still doing takeout?
I'm not sure about when they are discontinuing take-out but they're closed on Tuesdays so you won't be able to get a pie today. :( They open at 6pm Wednesday through Monday and close when they run out of dough.
