Saluggi's

These photos can't convey the sheer size of the pizza at Saluggi's. Once again, we misjudged our capacity for meat- and veggie-loaded starch, and once again we were forced to admit defeat, though we tried to eat as much of our sausage, garlic, basil, and mozzarella (made fresh in house) pie as possible. The heft of the cheese alone made our wrists hurt. The last time we ordered a pizza we enjoyed this much but couldn't finish, a critic devitalized the place. Coincidence? Oh, no doubt. Still, we're hoping that Pete Wells isn't prepping for a takedown of this charmingly low-key restaurant in Tribeca. We couldn't face a repeat of that as well.
