Basil is good, but naturally only in season, tonite i had gotten some pizza from Italianissimo, its the only brick oven pizza in Caldwell (many of you may know Italianissimo from the Sopranos and the Wild Bird Center is right next door)... so i saw a nice bunch of fresh basil sitting there and asked the guy to shred it and add it to the pizza... probably one of the best slices in town and/or for miles -- it amazes me how no one knows how to make pizza anymore. I try to make it myself every friday nite but tonite i just didn't have time... so i go in search of a decent slice of pizza whenever i dont have time... there is a place in Lodi which is supposed to be the best, maybe I will check that out on sunday for lunch... rumor has it even Sinatra has eaten there...
