Pizza Box: Appendix

I just wanted to add an appendix to Austin's excellent post about the Pizza Box, which is definitely my favorite pizza spot in the Village. In addition to the serviceable indoor seating, there is fairly expansive outdoor patio for the spring and summer, which allows you addicts to smoke your cigarettes while enjoying pizza box's modest but still much appreciated selection of wine and beers on tap. I am a sucker for good crust, and pizza box delivers like few places can--its literally some of the crispiest, most perfect new york crust i've had the pleasure to shove down my drunken gullet. While the cheese, mushroom, and vegetable slices are all great, it is with the crucial margherita slice where the Box truly shines. Usually if a pizza place can't do this right, it's dead to me pretty quickly, but the Box outdoes itself with this mouth-watering combo of fresh mozzarella, basil, and delicious sauce. Throw in the aformentioned crust, which seems to have been born to live under these ingredients, and you have one goddamn good slice of pizza. It's right near a bunch of cool Village bars, so eat at least three slices before drinking to prevent blackouts. The Doctor has spoken.
