Hey pizza friends, pizza makers, pizza eaters, and pizza lovers- I'm headin to San Fran this week! What should I do and where should I eat while in the bay area? Advice extremely appreciated!
I only went to two places while I was there-Delfina and Tony's. Delfina might be my favorite pizza ever, as it was crispy but also bready, which shocked me since it's from a regular oven (gas?). Tony's was really really great traditional Neapolitan and I loved the neighborhood, North Beach, for its abundance of Italian bakeries. If you like wine or movies, near Tony's is Cafe Zoetrope, Francis Ford Coppola's restaurant. It's filled with memorabilia and it was so much fun.
