Pizzas The United States Of America

If you're wandering around the Haight's bars, you're going to have to stop at some point and swallow something to soak up all that beer. That's where Escape from New York comes in, an institution that dates back to 1986. At the time, the Full Moon Saloon, a nearby concert hall, had a window overlooking Escape that allowed patrons to order pizza directly! The Full Moon has closed, but Escape still has a great collection of concert posters.

For fans of New York-style pizzas, Pizza Cake by Buddy Valastro will have something to interest you. Trained as a pastry chef, this star of the TLC chain offers a huge choice of round or al taglio (rectangle-shaped) pizzas with every conceivable ingredient. In addition to pizzas, Buddy Valastro will surprise you with his many cakes, which can even be purchased from a vending machine. Located in Harrah's, the restaurant is open late into the night, should you fancy a pizza on your way out of a nightclub.

The company's reputation is well established, with a dozen restaurants in various New England towns (Vermont, Maine and Massachusetts), and it's a big hit everywhere. In a warm and welcoming setting, you can enjoy thin, crispy pizzas, which the pizza makers twirl with their fingertips before baking them in a huge wood-fired oven. The ingredients used to make each pizza are natural and carefully selected. And there's a pizza to suit every taste.
