1. New York City Pizza- thinnest pizza crust ever seen, particularly around the37th and 8th street area.

2. New Haven Conn- There are some of the greatest pizzerias in the US there. Thin, thin to medium there.

3. Chicago Pizza- This is thick, thick, thick crust and ingredients. Home of the deep dish.

1 is thin
2 is medium
3 is thick

I am not including pizza I have eaten in Pescara Italy because that would be unfair. So, where are Lakes Region NH pizzerias on the thickness scale?

I love thin crust pizza also -- my all-time favorite pizza place is Regina's on Thatcher St. in the North End of Boston, I'll drive the hour to get there from home when I really really really need a good pizza fix. Anyway, they have thin crust pizza, with just enough sauce and the cheese seems to "swim" on top of the pizza Second fave is Christy's at Salisbury Beach, great "beach pizza", thin to medium crust, just enough sauce so it doesn't drip on you and medium amount of cheese............... but I'm rambling.

I'd like to add to your request -- ask people to explain why it's the "best"pizza -- not just the thickness (or thinness, if that's a word, lol) of the crust but why they think it's the best - amount/type of sauce? Cheese? How good is it when reheated?

In other words -- come on, folks, qualify your answers!

And I'll start with saying I've also always loved Waldo's for pizza -- at least in the original location -- closest I've ever come to getting "beach pizza" at the Lake. Their crust was relatively thin, the amount of sauce was enough to cover the crust but not drip all over the place, and the cheese mixture was perfect -- great taste, not too thick so that when you took a bite of pizza it didn't fall onto your chin and burn it.............

And now I'm hungry for pizza.
