It's a new place opened up by Dino and his wife Emily. Dino is Italian by heritage, a Brit by birth and sounds as American as anybody. Last year, he finally got his green-card and now, to support the ideal of the American Dream, he's opening his own pizza place with his lovely wife and their beautiful baby daughter (who's fingers are just the right size to make indentations in the calzones.)
Dino and Tina have been friends for years, so we came along to lend our moral support and scoff delicious pizza - and Dino's pizza was breathtaking. I'm already a convert to New York pizza - nothing made in England comes anywhere close - but this stuff was the cream of the crop. Crispy, tangy, cheesy and delicious.
You'll find New York Avenue Pizza and Pasta on - unsurprisingly - New York Avenue, just next to Checkers Cafe, Tina's favourite bar and the location of many a misadventure.I wish Dino and Emily all the luck in the world - not that they need it. Dino is a real old-school grafter and with pizza as good as his, the place will be an enormous success.
