Basically, Michelin 3 star pizza.
Please tell me some of you have seen not only Jiro Dreams of Sushi, but also Juan Likes Rice and Chicken.

Given how much Pinky G’s pays in rent and labor, $30.00 is very, very fair.
Welcome to inflation.

18" pies - $18 to $33, take away, from 3 local shops. Never did the comparison before, but the best (IMO) pies are the least expensive and from the only wood-fired oven in town.

You'll stand in line for an hour to pay that for a Pepe's white clam pizza in New Haven. Then you'll do it again, every time you're close enough...

Good pizza is about $25 canadian for a large. High quality and good size. About once every 6 weeks we order a couple and they last the fam a good couple of days.

Haha. Not a fan of congealed cheese. I usually go with breakfast burritos for bikepacking.

It's $21 for a 16" pepperoni at the place up the street from where I am. But a place down the street charges $40 for a 24" pie, which I thought was a ripoff. But I just did the math and a 24" pie is more than twice as large as a 16" pie, and it costs less than twice as much, so apparently it's a bargain.

**Buster Highmen** · 05-09-2021, 08:14 PM

Just paid $43 + $8 tip for 4 12 inchers, 2 of which were gf.

They know what I get and where it goes from the caller ID.

Upper Crust is the shit.

I'm taking this as a sign I need to do more research about personal pizza rankings again. It's been 3 years since I decided on my top 3 but with all the new good spots I probably need to restart from scratch.

**billyk** · 05-09-2021, 09:03 PM

$16 for medium and $22 for large at the local place. 3 toppings, coal fired. But this is Texas, so probably a bit cheaper than where you rich folks live.

**hatchgreenchile** · 05-09-2021, 09:09 PM

For thick, Blue Pan's Parma is $32.
For thin, Pizzeria Locale's Prosciutto + Arugula is $9.15 X 2 or 3.

Both are A+ offerings

@billyk: Coal. Smart. You guys can't count on gas or electric.

**bad dancer** · 05-10-2021, 07:39 AM

Whole foods up here has 2 XL pizzas for $30 pick up.
Best deal in the city.

**AdironRider** · 05-10-2021, 07:45 AM

Anyone who calls it 'za' should have to pay more.

Anastasio's down the street is almost as good and no wait-

**east or bust** · 05-10-2021, 07:54 AM

Currently paying about $20 for a large 1 topping pizza that would qualify as average in my book. So slightly overpaying.

Someone in another thread said we should add how much we’re willing to spend on a pizza. I think $25 is my limit for a large 1 topping, and it better be fucking good for that price. I’m sure we’ve all been somewhere that’s not home and been caught off guard by pizza prices, think the most I’ve ever accidentally spent was around $35. Fuck that

Local Wood Fired place -

$16 for 18" Lg - but the $$$ is $2.5 a topping.
$12 for 12" SM - $1.50 topping..

Prior to the pandemic, when we used to throw darts at a world map to see where we would take the G5 on a long weekend, a throw anywhere near Campania would necessitate a trip to Pepe in Grani for Franco Pepe's classic margherita. In addition to the 25 Euros for the pizza, if one were to factor in the travel and hotel costs, I would guess close to $35,000.
