The Thinnest of the Thin
Sometimes I get really hungry for a specific food... like the perfect cheeseburger or a really good fried egg. A couple years ago I was craving a super thin pizza. And so the search began. I was finding all sizes of pizza other than super thin... Chester Cab = super thick, Piatza's= all around super huge. Pontillo's, Cobbs Hill, Captain Tony's, Mark's, Guida's ... all good but not SUPER THIN. The closest I found was Pizza Stop by my office.
Moderately thin.
I went unsatiated.
This weekend I was wandering around the Jazz Festival enjoying the music when I spotted two women walking by with slices of pizza.
Hmmm... where did that come from? I drug my companions down the street until I found the only pizza place the specimens could have come from at the corner of East and Main. We went in and ordered slices. They came out and Halleluiah! SUPER THIN! The thinnest pizza I have ever seen! Paper thin! I am estimating a quarter inch! So thin I couldn't pick it up... I had to slide it to the edge of the plate and take bites. My pizza folding husband could fold it three times and it still equaled the thinnest pizza I have found thus far! Heaven!
When we left I declared "I must know the name of this thin pizza establishment!" I looked above the door and it said "Pizzaria". Uh... okay. A look at the pizza boxes revealed their real name... Stromboli Express. Stromboli? What about the super thin pizza? Ah well, never mind... I am happy.Labels: food

I am so excited for this! No sarcasm - I can't find good, thin crust pizza in Rochester for anything. Thanks!
That pizza was so thin I think you could see through it.
It was very yummy and a good price
(unlike the thin pizza I ordered from Guida's in Honeoye Falls once. I litterally paid $20 for the same amount of $6 worth of Stromboli Express pizza. Obviously I am still bitter)
My boyfriend is from NYC, so we are also always trying to find a good thin pizza. So far our favorite is from Acme on Monroe Ave. Now we'll have to try Stromboli Express!
Perry's in Irondequoit has some nice big thin crust pizza. Closest this Brooklyn girl has found in Rochester
thx for the tip, you move here from Brooklyn and all you can get is bready midwestern 'za cut into squares!
