I went to Williamsburg today for the first time ever. I walked around, took in the area and decided that it’s very much like the Village. There are so many creative, unique people, everyone doing their own thing. A vibrant neighborhood.
It’s clearly a place where individuality is celebrated, and it’s always refreshing to see people expressing themselves freely.
Coming from a more structured background, the relaxed and eclectic atmosphere was a bit of a contrast to what I’m used to, but in a good way. I even picked up a pair of Crocs for the experience. So on to the review.
I passed by this place and they made a fantastic claim: “The best pizza in the world.” Being a pizza buff, I decided this was the place to have lunch. I went to Asylum Studios, met with Erick, and planned out my tattoo.
Then on my way back towards the train, I made a pit stop at Fornino to try the best pizza in the world. It was empty, quiet; a female smiled and greeted me as I left, and upon entering, a waitress asked how many. I replied just me.
“You may sit wherever you like,” so I did. I decided on a Caesar salad along with my pizza, choosing the margherita and a ginger ale.
The Caesar salad was pretty good; I enjoyed the freshness of the lettuce and the dressing was delicious. Rather than traditional croutons, they put a piece of bread on the side, which suited me just fine as it was also tasty.
The pizza was delightful. The sauce had a taste that satisfies the palate, the cheese was just right, and the pizza crust was firm enough to fold, yet pliable enough not to break. The sauce did not soak through the dough, making everything just perfect. The cost was typical for something like this.
I enjoyed it, and as I continue to explore further out of my comfort zone, I will be certain to revisit this location. Hmm hmm good!
