There’s tons of places to get pizza at in New York, but a lot of them have the same style of pizza and your options are a slice or a pie. One of my favorite pizza places is called Pie, a place that has a lot of different types of pizza and a unique ordering method where you can get as big or small slice as you want and then they weigh your selections and you pay by the weight. I wonder if this was inspired by The Band?
It's a nice night out, kind of warm for this time of year.
And here we are at Pie. There's a building awning in front of the place, so it's a little rough to get a good shot of the place.
There's tables in the front as you walk in.
Amber serves me up a beer and informs me that you can't take a picture of the pizzas in the glass case in the front. She told me the owner doesn't allow it. I don't really get this rule, but I choose my pizza selections and head to the back while they're warmed up in the oven.
Here's tables opposite the pizza case that you can't take a picture of. Yes, I'm obsessing over the fact that you can't take a picture of the pizza case and its kind of destroyed my night.
There's a communal table in the back where I decide to sit and stew about not being able to take a picture of the pizza case in all its glory.
And here's my pizza selections from the glass case I couldn't take a picture of. Yes, this will bug me all night long.
Fire! Goodnight everybody and see you tomorrow after dark. Hopefully then I'll quit obsessing over why I couldn't take a photo of the pizzas in the glass case.
