Pizza is one of the greatest foods in the world. Everyone can say that they like pizza, but unfortunately it is rare that two people can agree on what makes the perfect pizza.

What do you think makes the perfect pizza? do you like to stick with the classics, or do you have your own custom ultimate pizza?

Personally I think that although you east coasters can take the credit for creating modern pizza, it had to travel west to be perfected. Thin crust is superior in every way to the greasy pan pizzas of new york, or the artery clogging deep dish pizzas of chicago. Toppings should be light, such as shrimp, fruits, vegetables and chicken. Pepperoni and extra mozza have no place on my pizza.

Post your thoughts!

This pizza place in up town makes the best pizza around here! I always get the ferrari. Spicy tomato sauce, real itailian sausage, bacon strips, onions, jalaponoes, and just the right amount of cheese baked in a old style oven on thin crust. Fuckin amazing.

New York style pizza from a hole in the wall that serves on bits of wax paper because they're too cheap for plates.  The pizza joints themselves can look pretty sketch, but the pizza is soooooo amazing...  Although chicago is good, New york is the best.  And then there's crap like Round Table, ick!  New York! New York! New York!

Spark notes:  New York.

btw, the state of new york sucks, just the pizza is good.

Hmm...I like thin crust pizza best I think, but it's a tough choice between that and a sick deep dish pizza.  For toppings I'll go for any combination of pepperoni, sausage, green pepper, onion, mushrooms, and banana peppers, and every pizza needs Tabasco habanero sauce on it.  Oh and maybe some marinara sauce to dip it in. Yum.

i like margarita pizza its just the crust with the cheese then fresh tomatos instead of sauce and some basil. I like to do it with spicy peppers and some prosciutto too though.

other than that i'm all about the brick oven pepperoni pizza. or flatbread.

This, and Randy's Wooster Street Pizza in Manchester. Or Campion's or Sal's in South Windsor. There is like, no bad pizza where I live, I feel bad for everyone else, especially those out west. The further you get away from NYC/CT, the worse the pizza gets.
