It's all mouth work. They don't want to deal with people who are unhoused. They want to give unhoused people a 1 way to ticket to a warmer state . Housing 1st!!!!!. Housing 1st!!!! Housing 1st!!! A roof over a person's head and clean water should be a human right. Meanwhile landlords are selling their properties to LLC management companies, making it impossible for people to find housing. Our elected officials are f.o.s.

Nah, there's no depth... Ultimately, that person's argument is, "I find it annoying how popular things get lots of attention and less popular things don't get enough attention."

That's like being a big fan of some obscure indie band and being annoyed how people will pay $500+ to see some generic pop act but not even give your favorite band a chance. Then the band gets a hit song and suddenly they're immensely popular and now you loathe them because they "sold out."

It's stupid. Just eat the food. Just listen to the music.

Calling yourself the best is a bold move and bound to conjure some negative feedback. However I think that it's indicative of the owner's confidence in creating pizzas he is proud of and I appreciate that kind of attitude. I went there for the first time last night and picked up a large cheese. The sheer size of it put a smile on my face. NY style is not my favorite but as far as this style of pizza goes, in Worcester, it is the best I have had. I don't live in Worcester so I couldn't confidently agree that it is Worcester's best. But I believe it is certainly worth the try. I appreciate a chef confident in his work and the quality of the product reflects that.

Worcester is THE MOST PIZZA CITY IN AMERICA. This may sound like Hyperbole, but I will wait while you Google it.

There are more pizza places per capita in Worcester than New York City and we have more variety than Rome or Napoli. Our pizza culture is more unique than New Haven or Detroit and the multiple diaspora have built a niche in our communities by making their mark and infusing their culture. I defy you to find another city that you can get a pizza with Tikka Masala made by an Indian person from the same place as a Corn, Egg and Keilbasa pizza with lettuce and Potato Sticks from a real Brazilian person.

EDIT: the above mentioned pizza do both exist as regular menu items at Fantastic Pizza and J & J. I'm sorry for going off on you like that, but there has never been a hotter take than "Worcester just isn't a Pizza City"
