I grew up with a place called Napoli Pizza that made amazing Sicilian pizzas. Unfortunately, the owner retired and closed down the place, and nothing I've found since has compared. The closest I've found is Pino's, but if anyone knows a place that makes really good Sicilian pizzas around Boston, please let me know.
In my 30 years on Earth, I've found two different places that use provolone (not mozz), and layer the sauce on top instead of the bottom.
Let me tell you, I don't care if you think that's pizza or not, that shit is delicious. Or maybe you only try a stunt like that if you're already a pro at the pizza game.

Boardwalk style is rare, but if crafted well is a definite go to.
I remember when I was a kid there was a bakery we went to where they had I think square slices with sauce, cheese, and then a layer of sauce over the top of that. It was weird and I can't recall if it was good or bad, but I've never seen pizza like that since.
I'm having a hard time reconciling Scott's pizza snobbery with the fact that he "rolls" pizza dough. Like with a rolling pin? You monster. Pizza dough is stretched, preferably with human hands and not monstrous talons. =P
I feel like any of your food shows can be summed up by "move to New York, it's just better."
It kind of is.
Like, once I traveled around the south having BBQ, I realized that the good BBQ here is just as good. Most of the world's food is represented here in authentic form if you know where to look. Local restaurants outside of the City that people rave about feel average by these standards.
The only caveat, however, is that these things are largely inaccessible unless you have the money to live here.

But yes, it's extremely expensive to live and/or work there. I'm not moving there without a guarantee of a good salary and decent living space.
