Back in May I finally made it to L&B Spumoni Gardens and Slice was right, it is a Rite of Passage and totally worth the subway ride.
My friend and I got a sicilian pie (12 slices) half plain and half mushrooms. They make it in an upside down style similar to New York Pizza Suprema, but it is the atmosphere that really makes L&B. You can feel the ocean breeze as you sit at picnic style tables outdoors. Quite an experience.
We finished off the meal with their signature Spumoni. I forget what flavor I got, but as you can it was extremely tasty and a great way to top off the pizza.
It also gets approval from Man v Food’s Adam Richman who visited some time last season (or the first?).
