I've had pizza in Las Gatos and it was amazing. The best pizza in the country is the Mohawk Valley, though. I've never found any region with such serious pizza.
Where is the Mohawk Valley?
The Mohawk River runs through the northern portion of NY's Central Leatherstocking Region (names as it is the setting of James Fenimore Cooper's Leathstocking Tales novels that defined early America's literary heritage) with the primary valley region lying between Albany where the river empties into the Hudson River in the east and Utica in the west. It is the start of NY's famed canal system and was the gateway to America's west in the very first days of western expansion. In the famed movie "How the West Was Won" the beginning takes place with a family starting out in Albany and going to Utica via the Mohawk River as the start of the pioneer journey to the west. That valley, the towns and cities right along the river, is the best pizza anywhere.
NY recently decided to rename the Central Leatherstocking Region to just be "Central New York", which is annoying. They renamed my home region, the Niagara Frontier, to "Greater Niagara" a number of years ago too.

@J1MM3RT, thanks for the info. I just asked my wife if she wanted to pick up pizza while at the store, and she said NO, there is NO good frozen pizza, make some homemade pizza please. So I have work to do this week!

@technobabble - have fun to me it's almost soothing to make a pizza. I normally just let my friends chill out around me while I make it and drink good ales. Just remember though the key to a great pizza is to drink good beers, microbrew or imports, no buds or any of those color changing mountains. What I also found out is to either make the sauce yourself if you have the time, get a meat marinara or a chunky marinara rather than normal pizza sauce, they give it a better flavor in my opinion.

@J1MM3RT Sounds good, I usually use my leftover spaghetti sauce. My best pizza was homemade BBQ sauce with shredded chicken, topped with turkey pepperoni, sliced onions, and Colby-Jack cheese on homemade thin crust. That was good eating!

@technobabble - That sounds awesome & now my mouth is watering for more pizza. What kind of BBQ? tangy, spicy, original, thick as molasses, homemade, etc, etc?
I'm toying with the idea of a three layer one similar to the cake above just made individually, bottom would have the BBQ sauce, middle a white garlic sauce, & the top a really thin coating of basic red marinara. Bottom would have Pepperjack & Habanero cheddar with Bacon & chicken (shredded). Middle would have the veggies. Olives, mushrooms, thin sliced red onions, & artichoke hearts, with Regular Mozzarella & Rumiano. Top would have hot linguica, mild cheddar cheese & more bacon, with more mozzarella & add shredded Parmesan. Does that sound like too much or just right? -
You guys are making me want pizza. All that I had for lunch was a salad.
-
Sushi here, man.. and it was good!
-
It was a mediocre salad. I'm not at my own office today and the food here is not up to par.
-
Although I eat much less why I am here because of that so that is good.
-
I am wondering how many calories are in a plate of sushi though... could be horrible for my diet..
