[...] It all started with a simple top ten list. Now many months later it was finally put to the thest. After several botched attempts and weeks of poor planning, the first annual East Los Angeles Pizza Off took place last evening at Nicci’s house in Echo Park. A lot of planning and a lot of hard work went into creating this event, so before I even begin describing exactly what happened, I would like to thank Nicci, Nate, Ilya and Tom for hosting the event. I’d also like to thank Pat, Shaun, Nate (again), Nicci (again) and Erin for pitching in and buying pizza pies. Thank you to Quiggs, Mark, and Gary for supplying alcohol. Thanks Gary for photographing the event. Thanks to whoever else I’m forgetting for casting votes and making this the first of what will surely become an amazing annual event. We couldn’t have had a better, livelier crowd. Everyone was there to serve a higher purpose — I think we were all cognizant of that fact — and it helped the competition run smoothly and efficiently. Most of all, everyone had fun chatting and bantering about their favorite and worst slices, and if we’re going to change what pizza in Los Angeles is, open dialog is definitely the first step towards realization of a common goal.

Excellent reviews – As a New Yorker, I agree. Looking forward to starting at the top, not the bottom of the list. One criticism – as a Special Olympics coach, I can assure you that for the developmentally disabled athletes who compete joyfully and proudly, winning the gold medal is, indeed, a big deal. So, high praise for your list if that’s your comparison. :-)

Ok first of all Boston has great pizza, it is different, and as the son of a family entirely composed of pizza snob long islander, i’ve heard it over and over. point. I’ve had pizza all over new york every time i’m there, over and over again, countless times, for years and years and years, my entire life to be exact. I know how good it is, and I also know what a Boston pizza is. NY pizza is the best pizza, I’ll concede that, but Boston pizza has it’s own style, and overall better subs actually. So a new england sub shop in my book can often time be equivalent.
I’m not gonna argue to much about your list but TOMATO PIE?? THAT SHIT IS AWFULL!! GIMME A BREAK!!! YOU SHOULD KNOW BETTER!!!
