your advice needed: great new york pizza

any suggestions for where to find it? the only pizza i've tried so far (including a couple of the so-called original ray's) has been mediocre to awful. i've had way better "new york style" pizza in california than i've ever had here.

tonight i'm going to a place in greenwich village* called john's pizzeria that one of my co-workers recommended. it seems to be well-reviewed. i'll let you know how that goes. but please let me know if there's someplace else i should try.

*i know, i'm supposed to call it "the village."** i just don't feel like we're close enough to be on a last-name basis yet.

**you might notice that i have not adopted a consistent style for ordering punctuation marks and quotation marks at the end of a sentence. i know that the conventionally correct style is to put the punctuation mark inside the quotation marks. but i really hate that rule. i think it's inaccurate, since if you're putting something in quotes, you usually mean "this is precisely what it's called" - and if you include an extraneous punctuation mark, well, then it's no longer a perfect reflection of whatever you're quoting. sometimes i bow to convention, fearful that others will judge me, assuming that i just don't know the basic rules of punctuation. sometimes i rebel.
