Why Spend More? $.99 Fresh Pizza

This will be a two part post, reviewing two places to go when your money is short and your hungry is huge! Both are in the region of Port Authority (on 9^th Ave).

Let’s first talk about .99 Fresh Pizza.

It is a place at the corner of 41^st and 9^th avenue (they are also in other locations as MidEast and Village).

At this location There is just a balcony, where you can order your pizza through a window. The attendant and the pizzaiolo stay in a tiny space, and you stare them wondering how they make to stay there all day long – specially the pizzaiolo.

Of course, it is not a wood burning brick oven. They use just a regular one.

You have almost a full option menu (the US standard pizzas are all there - pepperoni, sausage, cheese, shrooms, black olive, pineapple) and the price starts at $.99 – for a cheese pizza. If you want a pepperoni or something else the price goes up to $1.50.

Normally people ask for the pizza and eat it while they walk in the streets. But there is no problem to stay at the balcony enjoying your slice. You can order an entire pizza as well.

The pizzas are really fresh and you can feel that while you taste it. And they offer you a whole bunch of seasonings, herbs and spices, so you can just throw them over it.

My Pepperoni Pizza

For $2.50 I ate a cheese and a pepperoni slice. Don’t expect a gourmet pizza, but a decent slice for the price they ask. Both great. And believe me, all fresh!
