After tasting coal baked New York pizzas, I thought that it would be hard for me to enjoy pizzas baked any other way. Artichoke Pizza proved me wrong.
Yes, a pizza with artichoke heart topping.

Originally from Staten Island, Artichoke Basille's Pizza opened in NYC in 2008 at this humble 14th Street shop (East Village). Artichoke Pizza now has several branches across USA including at 17th Street (Chelsea, NYC), Greenwich Village (NYC) and Berkeley, California.
Artichoke Basille's Pizza is basically a take away with only a narrow wooden ledge for customers who wish to dine in.
USD4.75 (2014 price) got me this huge slice of pizza topped with thick cheese and their signature artichoke flesh topping.
The crust was crisp and slightly thick.
The slight char at the crispy bottom of the crust.
The cheese and artichoke topping was lusciously thick, soft, creamy and
The pizza was savoury and cheesy, slightly heavy on saltiness with sweetness from the artichoke flesh. There are over 25 ingredients in the magical sauce.
The topping was also slightly greasy but not so much that it would soak through the crust.
The crust was a little thick and was chewy like bread with crispness from the browned underside but didn't have the biscuit crackle of coal baked thin crusts.
This was my first artichoke pizza and I liked its taste and flavour.
If you are a pizza fan and when you are in NYC, Artichoke Pizza is a Must Try.
Artichoke pizza is different from standard / regular pizzas, and you can only find the original in New York City.
