Grimaldis is as good as I've had outside of Italy, so I don't disagree it's fantastic, but I disagree that it's better than in Naples. All the best NY pizzerias pride themselves on their ingredients and many import them from Campania. If they all use most of the same core ingredients....one would assume the pizza in Naples is that much more fresh no?
Naples pretty much ruined me for NY pizza....Ny pizza is a bit of a different product and still good, but man, it's just not as transcendent. The buffalo mozzarella alone.....god, I remember once eating just a bag of cheese for dinner, and it was one of the best meals ever. I could eat a bucket of that stuff.
