Johns of Bleecker Street Pizza | Greenwich | NYC | 2013

Here is a photo of a typical day on Bleecker Street. In this photo we passed John's of Bleecker Street Pizzeria, one of  the most well known pizza places in all of NYC. Another pizza shop owner from my favorite pizza place in midtown (Belle Napoli) told me that Johns is one of the few pizza places in the city that is allowed to use a coal fired pizza stove, and that makes a unique pizza. These stoves were outlawed unless an established place already had one. We did not eat here as they don't serve slices and we did not want to sit and eat. We did eat at the other famous place down the street, Joe's Pizza, where many famous people have eaten also.  Joe's is basically a hole in the wall, in like a 15 by 15 foot store front.  The pizza there was good, not great, with huge slices, and not as good as Belle Napoli.
