Brooklyn-Style Pie

| | Comments (3)

I'll admit I generally don't pay much attention to Marty Markowitz, but I loved his comment in the New York Times Brooklyn-style pie article when asked exactly what does he think about Domino's new pie:

“It’s a multinational right-wing company, mass marketing the Brooklyn attitude with obsolete ethnic stereotypes, not to mention flimsy crusts,” he said through a spokesman.

For some reason it's even more amusing that he said it through a spokesperson. The other funny thing is that when I was in Atlanta, my parents asked me what a Brooklyn-style pie was after seeing the ads. And I'll freely admit after watching the Domino's commercials, all the casual observer could gather was that it was thin enough to be folded.

ok, this has to be the best part of the article, right here:

"We purchased our Domino’s pie just a few blocks away from Totonno’s on Neptune Avenue. That it was handed to us over bulletproof glass turned out to be the most authentically Brooklyn part about it."
