Terrific Takeout: Two Boots!
If you have been reading Terrific Takeout at all, you know Peachy Deegan just loves pizza. And in this bitter cold, there is nearly nothing better than a piping hot pizza, made just the way you'd like it. We decided to give Two Boots a try at the suggestion of our readers, and let us tell you we were impressed in no small way. We've never gone to this place before in any of their locations, and we can't wait to go again. Two Boots was created in the East Village in 1987 by two indie filmmakers who loved pizza, beer and New Orleans, (the two boots being Italy and Louisiana). We may not be huge fans of folk art at Whom You Know but we certainly love love love our pizza!!!
We loved everything about this pizza, but our favorite component was the crust. Fabulously chewy, it will just melt in your mouth. It is not too doughy yet it has real substance that holds up the pizza with panache. Peachy ordered hers with onions, peppers, mushroom and pepperoni and it just melted in our mouths. Every ingredient was delightfully flavorful.
And you know we think a perfect pizza companion is salad! We would like to emphasize that this salad was the ultimate in fresh and its lettuce was true quality. Some salads we have found lack freshness, especially in the doldrums of winter, but not here. And, they listened to directions and put the dressing on the side:
We count seven New York locations, but they don't stop there.
Whom You Know recommends Two Boots!
