Scott Wiener of “NY Pizza Tours”..Meet Scott, look at his website and pizza pictures 5/06/2012

This post is about Scott Wiener and his great adventures in learning about pizza and visiting Italy. This link is about Scott Wiener. http://www.scottspizzatours.com/meetscott and part of the quote from his post. “I got home and took a solid job in audio production, but I found myself spending all of my weekends driving around the area to try different pizzerias. I organized field trips for my friends and tapped into New York’s strong pizza community. It all culminated on my 26th birthday when I rented a yellow cheese bus and took 30 of my friends to a few of my favorite spots. By the time I returned the bus, I knew I had found my calling. Some people deliver pizza to people; I would deliver the people to the pizza.” This is the website for Scott’s Pizza Journal and his Scott‘s Pizza Tours in NY. http://blog.scottspizzatours.com/


I saw this article on Scott’s Pizza Journal about first reference to Pizza as a Pie NY.

Really interesting article!!

I am friends with Scott Wiener on facebook and asked him if he minded if I wrote a post about him on my pizza blog and included some pictures of when he visited Italy. Scott said he didn’t mind if I posted about him on my blog and included some of his pictures.

Scott is an awesome man!

The pizza fanatics from pizzamaking.com had visited Paulie Gee’s pizzeria two times in the past year. Paulie’s Neapolitan pizzas are great and have such interesting toppings. Paulie is such a gracious host and I enjoyed visiting his Pizzeria so much.

I love all the pizzas I have tried at Paulie Gee’s!! I especially like the Hellboy and Cherry Jones, but love every pizza I have tried. Paulie is the nicest owner, and I am sure thrilled that Paulie would wear a Norma’s Pizza hat from such a small pizza business.

The pizza fanatics two visits to Paulie Gee’s on my blog.

What a thrill to see Paulie Gee with a Norma’s Pizza hat! Since I am such a small pizza business I am honored he would even wear a pizza hat from such a small pizza business. :)

Best Pizza-Brooklyn, NY 33 Havemeyer St. 11211

I had the chance to visit Best Pizza in Brooklyn, NY two times in the past year. http://best.piz.za.com/

Best Pizzas blog. http://bestpizza.tumblr.com/ Menu http://best.piz.za.com/menu/index.html

Best Pizza was very delicious and is baked in a really old brick oven. Frank, the owner told us the oven was 116 years old an used in a bakery for years. The brick oven was a coal-fired oven that now burns wood. The pies that came out of that old oven sure were fantastic. The white pizza had the best flavors and had caramelized onions and pickled vegetables.

These are links to the other posts about Best Pizza. The one time my two daughters and I went to Best Pizza and the other time the Pizza Fanatics from pizzamaking.com also visited Best Pizza.
