As reported by Slice yesterday, Sal of Sal & Carmine's has passed away: http://slice.seriouseats.com/archives/2009/06/obituary-sal-of-sal-and-carmines-dies-upper-west-side-uws-manhattan.html This is obviously a huge loss, and I just wanted to share the sad news. Their pizza is certainly one of the best of its breed (the typical NY slice), and it's important that we celebrate Sal's lifetime of great work.

I've posted my own writeup of S&C, seeing how there seems to be a general lack of blogging on how great their pizza is and hopefully will continue to be. Hopefully it does the man justice: http://theeatenpath.com/2009/06/07/sal-and-carmine-best-slice-in-manhattan/ Rest in peace, Sal. Tue Jun 09 05:00:15 -0700 2009 4738670 117311 theeatenpath
