DAY 15, Pizza Month 2009 - Knapp Street III (Bensonhurst)


DAY 15: OCTOBER 15th, 2009

LOCATION:
Knapp Street Pizza III (427 Kings Hwy, Bensonhurst, BROOKLYN)

ORDER:
1 slice of cheese, 1 slice of Chicken Marsala

GUEST(S):
Donald Kaplan, Kitzi Taylor

REVIEW:


Knapp time. Anytime you're in Bensonhurst and want a great tasting slice, it's Knapp time. Knapp Street Pizza III serves dozens of different slices ranging from a typical cheese slice to lasagna. Each has a distinct flavor unique to itself.


On a whim, I ordered the chicken marsala. I took a bite of the slimy grey and white slice and was pleasantly greeted with the flavor of a tasty chicken marsala. The chicken was moist, succulent, and best of all, grilled. These tender chunks complemented the mushroom and onion on the firm-but-chewy crust. Tying it all together was the rich marsala sauce. A well-crafted Italian dish that tastes as authentic as it is delicious. And when it's on pizza, you can even the dish it's served on!

A true judge of a a pizzeria is the plain cheese slice. The verdict: Awesome! I think the secret is the tomato sauce. The cheese and crust were most definitely above average but the sauce put it way over the top.

If you live in or around Bensonhurst, do us both a favor and set aside some Knapp Time.

MISC.:

1. Donald is a life-long Brooklyn boy knows a lot of people.
2. Most of the conversation topics centered around the "balloon boy" hoax.
3. Knapp Street III is not affiliated with Knapp Street I and II.
