Koronet's Pizza has been around for a very long time, well known for making very large slides. You do have the choice of selecting a regular or large slice. Since this is in the Columbia University area, I see a lot of students ordering the large... why not.
Just because the slice is large doesn't mean it has no taste. Far from it.
Grandma's pizza crust is tender and the pizza itself is so good. From the crust to the basil leaves on top, you savor every bite. You taste the sauce, garlic, mozzarella, the sauce (yum).
But let's talk about Grandma pizza. Why call it Grandma?
There are different but similar variations of where the name came from. What is well known is that it is a Sicilian-style pie that originated in Long Island New York during 1970. As first generation Italian immigrants, the women were likely trying to recreate a pie they remembered from their home country with ingredients they had on hand and something you would get if you were invited to someone's home. It has a thin crust, cooked in an olive-oil coated rectangular pan and topped with mozzarella cheese and tomato sauce and it's cooked in a square pan. The sauce is usually layered over the cheese and not the other way around, then cut into square pieces. Sounds familiar? Grandma pizza is usually made without a pizza oven. And it was usually only made inside the home.
Enjoy.
