heh. I've lived in NJ all my life and I say in no way is NJ pizza superior to any other pizza in any other state. I see you edited in that last sentence about frozen pizzas.....why? I think frozen pizza tastes horrible. Thin crust pizza? I hate thin crust pizza. I also hate unos. They are horrible. There are many great places to get pizza in NJ, but there are great places to get pizza in other states too , ya think? One of my favorite pizza places is John's Pizza in NYC

Well JD, NJ & NY pizza is really the same, so we are really agreeing to disagree here, lol. Let's band together against the tricksey deep dish crap!
I do sorely miss the pizza though, all there is out here is pizza chain crap. Though I did find a pizzeria out here about 30 minutes away, and guess what? The dude is from NY Here is the key to good pizza: 1. If the crust cracks when you fold it, it's quality 2. If the slices of pizza are the size of 3 slices from pizza hut (or other chain pizza places) Here is a good sign, and your chances go up for the pizza being good, if the following things are said or available: 1. If it is referred to as a "pie", such as "I'd like to order a pie" or "What would you like on your pie?" 2. If you can buy a "slice", such as "I'll have 2 slices" or "How many slices would you like?"

That is the other thing that makes you know that it's a good pizza place - when it's a pizzeria - preferably with a name like Tony's or Dominic's or some other italian sounding name. Quote:
You will think this is gross. In Nashville during Christmas - I went to Sbarros because we were at a mall. I ordered a large pepperoni pie. I went to pick it up after it was done and I saw them putting raw pepperoni on the pizza and then they handed it to me. I asked them to cook it with the pepperoni. They said this is the way pizza is made and that the heat from the pizza itself cooks the pepperoni. I told them that I wanted it cooked - that's the way it's done in New Jersey. Adn they just said "Oh in New Jersey?" - anyway - they put the pizza in the oven - but the pepperoni wasn't fully cooked and it was gross.

I haven't even tried saying it out here in Cincinnati, they do enough weird stuff out here as is. For instance, if they don't hear what you say, instead of saying "What?" or "Excuse me?" they say "Please", lol. The first time a woman said that to me, I was like "What are you talking about? Please what? I don't understand..." lol, it drives me INSANE! Oh and get this. Out here the big food that they eat is chili, which is fine, but they eat it on TOP of PASTA! Ugh, it's so nasty, I can't even think about eating that crap! Quote:
Ok, I seriously need to stop talking about pizza, cuz now I am all sad that I can't have any real pizza

The best pizza we have in Seattle is Pagliacci's, they make thin crust pizza that's usually really good, even when it isn't it's better than most of the other pizza places we have in seattle.

The EIU, which is actually a separate division from the Economist magazine, is an information service that earns money by doing studies aimed at an international business audience- and since most of the biggest multinationals are American, and a huge number of American businesspeople live abroad, it wouldn't make much sense for them to aim their study at the comparatively small British section of the market. Now, you may disagree about the factors that they include, and I think we should keep in mind that there's a huge difference between 'liveable' and 'desirable'- I doubt if many expatriate businesspeople would actually choose Vancouver, Melbourne, Perth or Adelaide over New York, LA, London or Paris- but the rankings are based on fairly objective factors- note that it is not an opinion survey.

Nice use of all known smilies, Valandil. But which ones would you apply to rating the cities?
London: some good architecture, great buzz, great arts, dodgy nightlife, ridiculously expensive, gives it Amsterdam: outrageous architecture (canals!), great buzz, great arts, great nightlife, good value: etc |
