it is a common misconception that New York za is better than New Haven za....

and a misconception is all that it is.....

NY za = poopoo compared to what the Elm City (and a little place in milford, Ct) can dish out...

Has there ever been a Za contest between NY and New Haven?

Like an official one, not just our opinion.

cant we just say that both cities have good pizza and let that be that? why does one have to be better?

answer to question 1: No. It is a false statement
answer to question 2: Because. One IS better.

If there has been no official competetion between NYC and New Haven, then there needs to be one. Someone needs the crown.

CT water better then NY water? yes, I can believe that.

The minimal water quality standards have not been improved since 1939. That means we drink the same quality water that our grandparents drank. Sure, you can argue that they bleach it or put chlorine in it but that doesn\'t really improve water quality.

I dont know the all the scientific mumbojumbo about it, but I know it to be true....
and NY water is actually pretty good....
But that is why CT and NY are the best pies in the country...
The water elsewhere is not good pizza dough making water. period....
I am not saying NY za sucks...I am just saying that it aint as good as NH za....
done and done....

i really have to try ct pizza because i find it hard to believe its better than ny.

I mean you dont see signs all around the country advertising "CT style pizza"

if it really was the best I think it would be a little bit more well known.

but i cant say for sure untill i try it i guess.

second ZA/Water lecture I\'ve heard in 24 hours. Going downstairs to heat up a DiGiorno.

Jim Cobb · « **Reply #11 on:** August 31, 2005, 05:53:46 pm »

um... i\'d rather drink bleach than NYC tap water.

just throwin this out there, and i really have no opinion in the za battle, but do you think if you were a native new yorker you\'d back NYC pizza over NH pizza?

Stephengencs · « **Reply #12 on:** August 31, 2005, 05:54:45 pm »

Any place with good za will advertise "New Haven Style Pizza" You dont see it too much because there aren\'t very many good pizzarias out there...

Spacey · « **Reply #13 on:** August 31, 2005, 05:55:01 pm »

of course cobb, that is why this rival exists.

DiGiornio, it must be delivery.

Klout · « **Reply #14 on:** August 31, 2005, 05:57:33 pm »

i think 99.9% of people would be dumbfounded if they saw a sign advertsing new haven style za. at least outside of ct anyway.

ny pizza is known world wide.

the ct best za seems like something some local ct resident dreamed up.

also wondering what pizza places u have eaten at in nyc gencs...there are some in manhatten that are not that great.

I bet anything you have never eaten a slice at lenny and johns in brooklyn or you would no longer be backing ct za. confirmed.
