Artichoke Basile... a mini DiFara closer and quicker


So I went to this tiny place (14th b/t 1st and 2nd) a couple days ago and had to get the Artichoke pie..

It was good, very good, but it's not what made me swoon with delight.

This...this... smallish slice of Sicilian pizza heaven is what will keep me going back for more:

The crust is infused with generous amounts of olive oil. The sauce is perfectly chunky and the cheese just coats the whole thing in a blanket of deliciousness. There's fresh basil on this and the regular slice and when I go back I'm going to skip the artichoke slice so I have more room for these.

When I went they didn't have the cauliflower fritti because apparently with the volume of people coming through it's hard to make it in a sensible amount of time.

I look forward to the day when I can try that too. =)
