But I would like to try it, as well as some of Jay's other thin-crust pizzas. I see that Jay's now offers thick-crust pizza, which they describe as "Detroit/Sicilian influenced." I was disappointed to see that description, as it suggests that they are simply getting onto the current Detroit pizza bandwagon, which I suspect will unload its passengers in a year or two. Perhaps it was unavoidable, given the toppings we chose, but be aware of that when ordering. But both plates had a substantial amount of oil, which I sopped up as much as I could with napkins. Maybe it's the high-fat cheese, and I'm sure the nduja exuded some melted fat too. My biggest complaint about both pies is that they were very oily. The nduja had a bit of kick, and the honey was applied judiciously enough that the flavors of both came together well in the underlying cheese base. Pizza of the Year 2022 - Latteria Sorrentina Award. Performance of the Year 2022 - Robo Award. But though this pizza was noticeably sweet, it was not overly so. Best Beer Service 2022 - Birrificio Fratelli Perrella Award. I don't particularly care for sweet pizza, or sweet and hot flavors combined. The one topping that almost put me off ordering this was the chili honey. On Jay's pie, it's applied in dollops around the pie. On a side note, I'd suggest that Jay's edit their menu to explain what nduja is, but it's a spicy, salami-like spread. We tried the Nduja because I'd read rave reviews of it. The Margherita nailed it, with a near-perfect balance of tomato sauce, fresh mozzarella and fresh basil, which was wilted but not burnt. The crust was flavorful, indicative of a long ferment, and had a good balance of bite and chew. The pies were cut into quarters, which were substantial enough to eat by hand, by folding, but pliable enough to make a knife and fork a good option. The narrow cornichone along the edge was evenly blistered with black spots, indicating that the pizza had been well tended to in the oven.

The crust was blackened underneath, which is sometimes dubbed "leopard spotting," but this was a little more uneven, not really spotted, with separate black areas and white areas. I went here knowing that this is not "Buffalo pizza." It's wood-fired, using what I believe is a naturally leavened dough (a/k/a sourdough), and most of the pizzas on the menu are made with a thin crust.
