When in a college town like Ann Arbor, Michigan I always like to find the dive bars and restaurants to eat and drink in. When I was told to go to this New York style pizza spot I was a little skeptical but since it was one of a kind and local I had to check it out. I slid into New York Pizza Depot for a couple slices of heaven.
When walking in you see this place is fairly big. There is even a side room for more seating. When walking up to order you see giant pies for you to choose from. The New York-style pizza is usually a very large hand-tossed pie cut into large slices. I always go for a cheese and then something unique when I can. This time I ordered a slice of cheese and a slice of baked ziti pizza.
The dough was wonderful not to crispy and not to doughy which made it a great pizza. The cheese was great and the sauce had a great herb and garlic flavor to balance out.
When the baked ziti slice came I didn’t really know what to expect. I have had mac n cheese pizzas before but was worried cause it is hard to cook a perfect slice with all that extra on top. This was no poblem though. The ricotta and mozzarella melted to make this like a pasta dinner on bread. The ziti was cooked just right and with the crust and sauce I couldn’t be more happier with a slice.
So next time you are in Ann Arbor and hungry for something quick and great be sure to stop into NYPD for a slice of heaven. They are open til 4am for the late night cravings and I was told next time to look into their subs cause they rock also
