If you are a food nerd like me and you want to be with your own kind whilst in New York, I can highly recommend
Scott's Pizza Tours. Scott conducts the tours himself. He has an incredible depth of knowledge and passion for the New York pizza pie.
In a short 3 hours we covered the history of this iconic food from it's first appearance direct from Naples in the coal fired ovens of
Lombardi's to the modern deck ovens of
Joe's Pizza in Greenwick Village.
Stops along the way included
Bari where they still manufacture pizza ovens to this day, despite being in the heart of Manhattan.
Pizza is one of America's greatest cultural exports and this three hour tour got right to the heart of it.
