Artichoke

I tried Artichoke last night - the slice shop on 14th that's been getting rave reviews for the past half a year. I liked the pizza okay... but it's not New York pizza.  The slice is thick (but not Sicilian... unless of course you ordered Sicilian) and the topping did a good job of seeping into the bread.  I ordered the artichoke slice - it was a white slice.  The topping was rave-able but the crust is nothin' compared to the Lahey pizza I had at Co. on Sunday.  That's true mastery of pie.  This is good - but good the way I did it... late night on a weekday before heading home to conk out.... No line whatsoever...

I'm not writing off Artichoke quite yet.  Maybe the slice I got was a little old? ...And I am interested in trying the crab slice.  But you won't see me waiting more than five minutes in any line.

  1. Ah hah, glad to hear about that place - always looked like the "trendy joint" whenever I walked by, but I never really got the vibe.. glad to have a first hand account from a trusted source!

  2. I have yet to make it to that place! Whenever I pass it is impossibly crowded so I just go for Ramen instead.
