DAY 15: OCTOBER 15th, 2024 

LOCATION: Arturo's Coal Oven Pizza (106 W Houston St, New York, NY 10012)

GUEST(S): Robin Rothman, Mary Ann Gee, Paulie Gee

ORDER: 2.5 slices of Sausage with extra sauce

REVIEW: 
Eat it again, Sam.  Greenwich Village’s Arturo's does it all and has been doing it all since 1957. Two huge painting lined back rooms allows Arturo's Coal Oven Pizza the flexibility to feed larger parties, while the bar and live jazz at the entrance sets a romantic mood perfect for a dinner for two.  And that dinner is delicious pizza.  Expertly topped and evenly sauced, these sturdy, coal-fired crusted masterpieces fit right in with the artsy decor.  I recommend a hearty meat topping like sausage or pepperoni to provide a zest to complete the already tangy and savory taste in an Arturo's pie.

1. Mary Ann Gee and Paulie Gee just recently finished writing a book! Rumor has it that I might be mentioned in it! I'm so humbled and impressed! The title is not yet available but look for it in 2025.

2. Paulie Gee and Mary Ann Gee know everyone. As soon as they walked in, they recognized the hostess and the chef! We even got in a photo with the chef named Mario.

3. Robin Rothman Citibikes around town like a boss. She takes them to and from work everyday and even took one from work to Arturo's.
