L'Industrie Pizzeria
L'Industrie, one of the best pizza places in NYC, is the new benchmark for a fantastic New York slice. This Williamsburg pizza joint combines toppings from Italy, an impressively thin crust similar to Roman varieties (like those at Bread & Salt in Jersey City), and a dough with a funky flavor from a protracted fermentation process. The outcome is the kind of slice you'll yearn for out of the blue, like on an unplanned Tuesday when a leaf lands on your head and makes you think of basil.
Every mouthful of the blistered crust puffs and crunches, tasting more like bakery bread than regular pizza. A thin layer of rich mozzarella stays perfectly in place thanks to minimal tomato sauce and precise oven temperatures. The sexy kind of orange grease drips down your wrist when you fold a slice. If you momentarily decide to tear the crust in half, you’d see a smattering of air pockets that look something like bubble wrap.
Beyond the crust, what makes L'Industrie unique is their emphasis on fresh ingredients, frequently imported from Italy. After all, a Florence native founded the store in 2017. Each slice has a sprinkle of parmesan and basil on top for a herbaceous and salty finishing touch.
