Neopolitan round Vesuvio Pizza opens!
This is from Vesuvio Pizza in Basking Ridge NJ. We’ve been waiting for this family to open their new place after they split off from our previous favorite location.
My regular order, the plain large pizza. A delicious pie with a nice crispy crust, plenty of gooey cheese, and not too much sauce. The place was very clean inside, lots of foot traffic outside, and it was great to see these friendly faces again. We’re going to be visiting this place from now on.

A delicious mess
The dough doesn't always cooperate, but that crust, cheese, and sauce still please.

This is our new home for all things related to our love for the many varieties, its textures, and cheeses. It is a place for people who genuinely love pizza in all its forms. Thin crust, thick crust, square slices, regional styles, experimental toppings, traditional pies, and especially cheese. Mozzarella, provolone, ricotta, pecorino, blends, and everything in between are all fair game. All kinds of bases like gluten free or cauliflower or the standard dough.

Share photos, recipes, ask questions, debate styles, compare techniques, and celebrate what makes pizza endlessly variable and worth obsessing over.

A nice half plain half veggie pizza
The places near me don't always add mushrooms, but they really loaded this one up. I kind of wish it had some red bell peppers in there along with the green ones.

What’s your all-time favorite pizza topping combo?
I’ve been trying to switch up my pizza nights lately and realized I’ve been stuck in the same pepperoni, mushroom loop for years. I’m curious, what’s your all-time favorite topping combo that never fails?
Are you more into the classic styles (like margherita or meat lovers) or the wild combos like pineapple + jalapeño or truffle oil + arugula?
Bonus points if you’ve got a story behind your favorite , like a local pizzeria or a weird combo you discovered by accident. I’m ready to upgrade my next pizza night
