Peter Carlaftes on the best pizza in New York City

TRP's own Peter Carlaftes was recently seen on The Travel Channel's primetime show "Food Wars," singing high praises for the pizza at John's of Bleecker Street in NYC. Check out the 32-second clip with his hilarious running commentary. Trust us: He means every word.

Tip of the week: John's will be handing out a very special FREE 2011 calendar over the next couple weeks, with concept & design by Three Rooms Press (so you know it's going to be great!). Pictured is a sneak peek of the cover. Get yours free at John's (278 Bleecker, between 6th & 7th Ave.) after Thanksgiving. And remember: Whole pies only--NO SLICES!
