"Fact: Pizza is pandemic food. I’ve had more slices in the last year than in my 30-something years of existence combined (or, at least, it feels that way). One spot I can’t get enough of is Rotten City Pizza in Emeryville. Their pizzas are large, the crust is thin with a nice stiffness, and they use high-quality ingredients for the toppings. Before the pandemic, I used to love grabbing a pie from there and enjoying it over drinks at Prizefighter down the street, but my go-to move now is to get their new “fat slice,” which is essentially two large slices (a.k.a. a quarter of a pizza) topped with cheese, pepperoni, or whatever other pizza they’re serving that day. Get one and enjoy it under some sun down the street at Doyle Hollis Park." - lani conway
