PRO: Best Margy pizza in the U.S. of F'ing A
CON: $10 dixie cup-sized wine
So we went on a mini-Pizza crawl today in NYC. Constantly searching for the best pie in the best pie town in the Continental U.S. ('cuz y'all know Hawai'i and Alaska can rock Pizza, gotta leave them out!)
We also know, yeah we know...NYC has it over SF in most things. Not just most things in the culinary.
The Pour House – TenderNob (Stay Away!)
Wed, Aug 18, 2010
PRO: Challin, the bartender was nice and I'm sure knows nothing of the owner's sleaziness
CON: Everything else
Hey, you know us. Happy shiny people, am I not right? Skipping (and drinking and eating) hand-in-hand through life. Happy as pigs in poo, and all that. We like to look at the bright side. OK, OK, I hear ya, owner of K&L Wine Merchants: you are an unlucky exception. Well, ya.

PRO: Great, affordable Cantina-style food, awesome space, good tequila selection
CON: Not much
Watch out, Tres Agaves, Mijita and the rest o' ya, there's a new sheriff in town. And it's a...300-lb. hairy, curly-tailed, cloven-hoofed yet adorable sombrero-toting swine named Paul Cardi...ooops! I mean named Pedro El Pig!
(Imagine if you will, a pig speaking with a Mexican (or Hispanic, Latino or whatever does not offend anyone) wait I just did parenthesis inside.
