Gotham Networking Pizza Crawl
Gotham 2nd Annual Pizza Crawl 6/6 at 5pm
Rockaway Pizza has Arrived! The people have spoken! This February, the Queens Chamber of Commerce sponsored “The Best Pizza in Queens Contest” and 3 Rockaway Pizzerias ranked #1,#2 and #9 respectively.
The Elite 8: 8 Gothamites will visit All 3 winners, in reverse order!
This beachfront community is also the home of a burgeoning foodie scene.
Robert will discuss the evolving of Rockaway Beach (his Hometown) food and the history of New York Pizza! The group will experience a multitude of different slices created from 3 different style ovens.
This is the “anti-crawl” as there will be very little walking this time.
1. Pizza on the Point- Our first stop is at Pizza on the Point, meaning Breezy Point! We park in the strip-mall parking lot and sample Michael Fiore’s creations including a “special slice” that will remain a secret until 6/6. Michael Fiore also has catering experience with Seinfeld and Fallon as clients and “POP” features 4 different sauces.
2. Pizza D’Amore- aka “Pizza of Love” is stop 2 as we carpool and take a 10-minute drive from Breezy Point to neighboring Rockaway Beach on 116th st. Created by Frank Scollo, who has a Mill Basin Street named after him, the Elite 8 will sample 2 different delicious slices.
3. Rocco’s of Roc Beach: We walk around the corner for the Grand Finale! The Winner of Best Pizza in Queens! Enjoy a full sit-down family-style dinner in their back party room with salads, appetizers, main courses and multiple pizza samplings and dessert prepared by 5-star Chef Bruno Milone, of Il Mulino fame!
There is an 8-person limit. $85 per person, alcohol billed separately.
