The Best Things We Ate This Week

"Pizzamanina Pizza We love Cuban pizza for its fluffy crust and that golden brown ring of toasted cheese, but sometimes we do miss those fancy toppings you find at more upscale pizzerias. That’s why the day we found out about Pizzamanina’s namesake pie was one of the happiest days for us (and our stomach) in recent memory. This pizza has the same crust and crown of crispy cheese that we love with the addition of prosciutto, blue cheese, and bacon. It’s a combination that would be too strong on a paper-thin crust, but it’s perfect on thicc Cuban crust. Sometimes separate things you love can come together. Now, let’s see if we can get someone to put croquetas in a baleada." - ryan pfeffer, carlos c olaechea
