Why your support matters
Enough with the “unique twists on New York-style pies” nonsense. Either it’s a New York pie or it isn’t. Then, there’s the prices 30 bucks for a plain pie in the Billburg location; while, in the Manhattan joint, it’s “only” 22 bucks. $4.50 for a plain slice. No thanks. Keep your overpriced slop. Another rip off the stupid flyover state gentrifiers and AAA battery armed, parentally subsidized, toilet plunger physiqued interlopers strategy.
