"Question? Why do New Yorkers get so twisted when it comes to pizza? Who has the best? What neighborhood? Greenpoint? Bushwick? Williamsburg?Seriously, it 's just bread, cheese, sauce and olive oil? Right? What 's the big deal?Answer: for us New Yorkers, especially Brooklynites as myself, IT IS A BIG DEAL!!!!!!Thus, when I 'm in a cheating mood no ordinary slice will do. That is why I travel to specific Brooklyn pizza places to find a really great slice.One night I was on Google and the top ten here we go, according to pizza enthusiasts) pizza places in Brooklyn popped up. As I scrolled to find a place I have not dined at, Joe and Sal 's caught my attention. I was surprised I hadn 't dined there due to Eastern Parkway being a home away from home. The article stated the Sicilian slice was THE slice to get. Mind you J and S offer burrata, deep dish, nonna and more as far as Sicilian slice options.So here I am in this cool pizza joint with Michael Jackson staring at me from the poster hung in the back as I order my Sicilian. After a five minute wait, warmed up and asked if I want olive oil drizzled on the slice I passed), I stared at my massive slice. Wow! It 's love at first sight. But how does it taste, you ask?In the words of Michael Jackson, Don 't stop til you get enough fantastic!You know that first bite: the synchronicity of bread to cheese to sauce.. it 's the ultimate bite and it was yummy. The crust is hard and dense, the cheese and sauce melts in your mouth and just the right amount of sauce. I ate every bite.How does Joe and Sal 's formerly Nino 's) compare to the others? Let 's just say it 's up there with Paulie Gees, L and B Spumoni, Forninos and yes Robertas.Meaning, THAT GREAT!I dare you to look and my picture of the Sicilian and not salivate!Joe and Sal 's location is 862,Franklin Avenue, take 4 or 5 train to Franklin Avenue/ Medgar Evers College stop and exit from Eastern Parkway Southeast which leaves you half a block away."
