COALFIRE<br />
PLY<br />
As its name implies, everything is made<br />
from plywood in this pizzeria located<br />
in Manchester, England. On the menu<br />
are regular sourdough pizzas as well<br />
as several weekend specials, priced<br />
reasonably and all cooked in 90<br />
seconds in a wood-fired clay oven.<br />
The oven was built on site by three<br />
Italian specialists and made from<br />
Neapolitan volcanic rock covered in<br />
clay and disco ball-style mirror tiles.<br />
Must-try pizzas include the Margherita,<br />
Napoletana and the Courgette, especially<br />
if you're a vegetarian!<br />
Proprietors Dave Bonomi and Bill Carroll told Convergence<br />
that the reason for the ever increasing flow of customers to<br />
both their pizzerias located in Chicago, USA, stems from the<br />
team's friendly and unpretentious service.<br />
They both said, "We mostly work<br />
with local Salumaio farmers and<br />
butchers who only use the highest<br />
quality, antibiotic and pesticidefree<br />
meats and vegetables.<br />
Also, we are endlessly<br />
trying to improve on our<br />
craft of making good<br />
pizzas!" To try: Nduja<br />
pizza with Nduja<br />
-infused ricotta, spinach<br />
pizza with pistachio<br />
pesto-infused whipped<br />
ricotta, margherita pizza,<br />
pepperoni and whipped<br />
ricotta pizza, spinach pizza<br />
and pistachio pesto with<br />
burrata pizza.<br />
PAULIE GEE<br />
On his Twitter account, Paulie<br />
Gee's proprietor, Paulie<br />
Giannone said, "Some<br />
people live to eat, I live<br />
to eat pizza, serve it in<br />
Greenpoint (Brooklyn,<br />
New York) and help<br />
others serve it elsewhere."<br />
Rest assured, Paulie is<br />
living up to this statement<br />
every single day because the<br />
word on the street has it that every<br />
pizza slice you eat (vegan choices as well!)<br />
at this joint will have you hearing the bells of heaven. We kid<br />
you not. Must-try pizzas include the 'Hellboy' with crushed<br />
tomatoes, earthy sopressata and artisanal spiced honey and<br />
'Ricotta Be Kidding Me' with fennel-seeded Italian sausage,<br />
Canadian bacon and ricotta cheese piped on each slice. Be<br />
warned that the outlet does not allow takeaways as Paulie<br />
believes it compromises the taste and quality of his pizzas.<br />
PRATO<br />
Florida, also known as USA's<br />
Sunshine State, is best<br />
known for its beaches,<br />
nightlife and<br />
apparently one<br />
pretty famous<br />
pizza outlet! At<br />
Prato, the classic<br />
Margherita<br />
prepared with<br />
a homemade<br />
sauce, fresh<br />
mozzarella and<br />
hand-picked<br />
basil is the<br />
bomb-diggity!<br />
And if you love<br />
that warm feeling<br />
from a perfectlycooked<br />
runny yolk,<br />
the 'Widow Maker' is<br />
your choice. 'Diavlo' is<br />
Prato's version of a pepperoni<br />
pizza as it is made from<br />
homemade pepperoni slices<br />
with juicy and spicy bell<br />
peppers and chilli<br />
oil. The outlet also<br />
offers seasonal<br />
pizzas which<br />
change<br />
according to<br />
seasonal<br />
ingredients<br />
from the<br />
market.<br />
