epolito my heart

We had New York style pizza from a pizzeria owned by a New Yorker last night for dinner. YUM. We went with the Burchs to Epolito's in east Auckland... I'm telling you - Make friends with foodies... they know where all the good places are! It was SO GOOD and tasted like a real pizza from the US!

You may ask "Now how can someone screw up pizza? Pizza is pizza!" And well, you'd be wrong. New Zealand's pizza has barbecue or some sort of chili-spice sauce instead of tomato sauce... their main meat is often times huge chunks of ham, gristle and all... their crust is literally 3 inches thick - and not in a good Chicago-style pizza sort of way. Let's face it - New Zealand's no Italy... or New York in this case. Epolito my heart... and stomach... :)
