Brooklyn is Pizza Heaven
Vložit
- čas přidán 12. 06. 2024
- The inaugural episode of 'The Pizza Show' kicks off in Brooklyn. Our host Frank Pinello, a born and bred Brooklynite, remembers the importance of his neighborhood pizzeria growing up. We start at Roberta's in Bushwick, a pizzeria that has truly changed an entire neighborhood. Then we spend some time with Mark Iacono, owner of Lucali in Carroll Gardens, who built his restaurant by hand and is working tirelessly to preserve the tradition of his neighborhood through pizza. And what would any pizza show be without visiting the king: Dom DeMarco of Di Fara in Midwood? Dom is a legend, and even when great pizzaiolos visit him, like Frank and Mark, they can end up questioning their own pies.

Everybody gangsta till yenkel shows up with wood
LMAO
Adam RJ heh
Adam RJ I actually know the guy he is a hardworking guy
(Yenkel is a jew.)
Qwerty II Nothing. Do you have a problem with Yenkel being a jew?
I can’t imagine anything more New York than a Jewish old guy called Yenkel delivering wood to a pizza place
Something I'd say as a joke.
never seen a workin class jew
Only in new york lol
@@ImmUUUU hahaha
@@ImmUUUU have you been to ISRAEL lol
Whenever I start to feel down or depressed I just remind myself that Yenkels out there somewhere blocking traffic to deliver wood and not giving a shit about anything.
ya, gotta luv it. I should be a Yenkel
We could all benefit from being a little more like Yenkel.
And the she blocking an ambulance
Yenkel is that dude
lol at depressed
remember the native americans and how they were devastated. Remember the Transatlantic slave trade.
Rest in peace Dom, it was a pleasure watching you making pizza. A true legend
WAIT HE DIED?

Oh no. Rest in peace, Dom
I still say, Munchies was so wrong to cancel this show !! One of the best ever on You Tube !
It really was. I miss it
Agree
@JC1985 f you man you are everywhere
Why’d they cancel it
@@viraj3695 i dont know
munchies is the wrong program to watch at 2 am when you're hungry
+HoboJIm117 4 am*
rastabwoy420 *any time late at night
True
+HoboJIm117 *any time you're hungry.
Fokus007 well if you're hungry in the morning you can go out and get food. at 2 AM nowhere is open for dank pizza :C
that guy randomly saying "forget about it" is the best thing ever
Read this comment as the guy was saying it lol.
It is the most Brooklyn thing ever.

This show, after seeing the first 2 minutes it’s better than 95% of food shows.

its crazy it has been 6 years already

@@justjammiedodger2608
Clearly, you're fat from eating too much pizza.
Yenkle is my spirit animal. Doesn't give a fuck about shit, just delivers his wood and gets the fuck outta there.
I like that!
You can tell that Lucali is truly a passion project. This man barely spoke about his business, as he wanted to highlight WHY he started it. Mark showed all of the businesses that he loves in his area, and the people of Carroll Gardens. I love stuff like this
Dominick De Marco passed away March 17, 2022. Long live the Brooklyn pizza king. 👑
Munchies we would love to see a video dedicating his work amongst the people that worked/were inspired by him
I love how humble Mark is. I have nothing but the up most respect for that man. What a great guy
When you almost get stabbed to death fighting a mobster you become more humble.
It's 'utmost'.

You sir have made me chuckle. Thank you. Wish we got a real sequel to that game.
not funny.
@@nouryy About how a pizza place is dying and need to destroy another chain
Haha bruh
bro made me snart man, guffaw good person guffaw.
I ate at Di Fara Pizza 7.5 years ago and I still talk about it with my friends. It took me around 20-25 minutes from ordering a slice to actually getting it, but holy shit was it worth the wait. Definitely the best pizza I've had!
Dom passed away a few weeks ago though.. RIP
@@mohdaffandiariffinmohdazma3283 rip
Mark and Frank could literally make a show of them to walking around and chopping it up all day and I'd watch.
Yenkel is a mans man. I hope he is still out there on his wood hustle.
@JC1985 Pitiful
Yenkel probably doesn't even know what they do with the wood. He doesn't care - he just wants to get to the next delivery.
@JC1985 Ew, an anti-semitic It's 2020 grow up this isn't ww2. Shut your nazi-sympathizer mouth and go back to school.
Picked up a few pies last week, he was in the middle of a delivery

Hi, if you like cooking, feel free to check out my recipes ;-)
Dude the wood delivery truck driver was the best part 🤣🤣🤣
Randomly came back too watch this video today after reading about Dom Demarco passing away. Amazing too see him work. RIP
"How long have you been delivering wood?"
Yenkel: "20 years...."
"So you know everything about the business right?"
Yenkel: ✔️✔️
Barbara Meza that part was funny lol
Guy all about business no small talk
he is probably the owner if he jewish
what a stupid question
Maybe he’s the owner of the truck not the wood provider?
Im From Israel 🇮🇱😊❤
I love how at 20:26 Mark asks Dom to come by his shop one night with like the most earnest plea he can utter without sounding too needy. It shows the great deal of respect he has for Dom.
A beautiful moment. Everyone there is truly in if for the craft at that point.
God I hope it happened before Dom passed
I was thinking the same thing, its like a kid asking his uncle to come watch him play baseball
To all the Italians/Italian-Americans, you guys have a beautiful culture!
Cheers, from a 🇲🇽 🇺🇸
Thank you, from all of us!

Those group of old italians playing bocce look like the types you don't wanna owe money for.

Holy shit. I am moving to New York from Boston in two weeks and I just went on Google Maps and realized I'm going to be a 6 minute walk from Lucali. Fuck me senseless I am going to be a happy dude.
I'll cya there
So, you fat yet? :D

Thats almost every Italian

Sounds like you're looking for some man sausage
I like Frank better lol.
6 years later and I’m watching this for 1000th time. I’m not Italian myself, but have been enthralled by the culture since I was a child. This video is an all time great.
NJ Italian here....my dad used to say..."there are 2 kinds of people in the world; Italians, and people who wanna be Italian".......he kinda said it with a twinkle in his eye, in a kidding nature, but with some truth to it.
I hope you made it up to Brooklyn to eat at these pizzerias and walk these great neighborhoods. You only live once!
🍕🍺 Boston Italian here!
@@ronyeahright9536 No it's really true, As a kid my Mother made two really great Italian meals, Spaghetti with a meat sauce which was usually made with leftover meatloaf and a Mother's style of square Neapolitan Pizza and she substituted thick cut kielbasa meat for the pepperoni. And as a child, I loved this food so much, I always prayed to God "why couldn't I have been born Italian"
In more modern times, Greek comes in a close 2nd place :)
@@Sugarmountaincondo I believe it, over the years I've had more than one friend express that same thought. Your Mom sounds like a great Italian cook!
this is the most new York thing I have ever seen
The most New York City thing is a rat smoking weed with timbs on while running from the cops.
even had people talking about the sopranos and a signed picture of gandolfini at the meat store lol
@@intell2644 lmao that's the Dominican or black New York
@gabe Johnson true shit my boi
I love how they show so much respect to Dom.
I remember when this episode dropped years ago. Its still fucking awesome!
I’m five years late to this, but man watching this, it made me feel like I was hanging out with good friends and having great food. What a fantastic episode, sad this stopped!
Yankle was not fucking with him at all lol
SeatStreet who's Yankle??
you mean the Jewe. hes 150 yers olld still worrking. wher the fuck gone take hes money . jewes thing .
Yankel’s like “it’s fucking wood guys”.
Guy going sentimental: For me makes me sick, this is what Brooklyn is all about.
Italian Guy: Alright, What do you want?
Just another guy waxing lyrical. Everyday bull in any service industry you just ignore/deal with. History is history and it ain't coming back.
Lmaooo. So good.
@@cattysplat What do you mean by this?
@@jasonbourne3703 He's saying the host is bullshit.
So dope and humble how Mark is widely considered the best yet he goes and treats this old man as though he is Rockstar. Mad respect for not forgetting the teacher.
Rest In Peace, Dom. A legend retires.
This is literally the most New York video I've ever seen God Bless Brooklyn.
“You gonna shake my hand?”
Marc is just in a daze with the pizza.. starring at it, thinking about how delicious it’s going to be..
A true craftsman
I love Frank so much. He always shows so much respect. Frank and Mark getting their t-shirts signed by Dom at the end almost made me tear-up.
Still one of the best foodie/food youtube shows ever made. Frank has such a fantastic energy and enthusiasm about him and the crew seems to be just as involved.
As someone who doesn’t have a family (only child and parents passed away when I was young) watching Dom and his family run their shop warms my heart. Family is such a beautiful thing and I hope everyone who reads this remembers to always put family and pizza first. ❤️
Hey Big Smoke, things must have been tough.
My family are all a bunch of miserable scumbags, you want them?
Big Smoke yeah
@@MrKinghuman C'mon they can't be that bad. It's your family, man.

iRifle87 dude yo stupid. Why would ham be illegal... I’m from Israel, but Jews don’t eat ham, because it said so in the Torah 😫 but it’s not illegal
I come back to this show at least once every few months
I don’t know why I love watching Frank just hangout with people and make pizza. It’s just a regular dude doing regular stuff. One of my favorites on Munchies.
God I loved this so much. The pizza, the stories, the people, the accent.
gotta love the accent
I used to work for Italian people, they are great, now I am in my country, Guatemala, I see that Ny pizza and I cry some day I will back and try all those places I see in this channel, you guys are great God bless Italian people

Thats why i never go to the large food chains. The huge super rich companies destroy small amazing restaurants like these
Yeah, excuse the big companies for franchising their shit and bringing the costs down.
fuck pizza hut
Laffs in capitalism
yes so true and they offer nothing in quality, history or style.
Supporting local food business (if they source locally) helps out your region. If your local store buys supplies from a nationwide dealer, there isn’t much difference.
Man such wholesome neighborhoods and stories, warms my heart
That's what i love about NY, you don't see that anywhere else in the US
Rip Dom :(
R.I.P. you will be missed Dom.
That old man called Dom, must be the Godfather of Brooklyn's Pizza~

I still miss this show, I live in a place where I can't enjoy any of it, I used to and still watch all these while eating cornflakes.

This is one of those videos on CZcams wich you can watch more then once and still enjoy it .
The man, The Myth, The Legend... *Yankle.*
I stopped watching it. Not because it sucked but because I am nowhere near good quality pizza at the moment. This shit made me want to go to brooklyn just to eat pizza.
ProfessorFatMan I'm literally contemplating weather or not I want to move to Brooklyn just to have this pizza for the rest of my life. I'm getting hungry just watching this video.

@@nickrenzo6285 My god, the first time I heard an actual Italian New Yorker say that I was trying to keep myself from laughing my ass off thinking, "Oh my god, I can't believe they actually say that!"
Not only Italians that say it. Most NYers do
R.I.P Dom! We will miss your pizza!
I was born in Brooklyn but just 9 months later my parents and I moved down south (Louisiana). When I watch this episode I wish they’d stayed. I’d love to be able to legitimately call Brooklyn my old neighborhood.
Everything about this show--the narration, the editing, the camerawork--is filled with love in the best sense of the word. Frank is so kind to the people he meets and he really brings them out. This series elevated CZcams. Sure would like to see another season!

I love this story and I love these guys for showing respect to an icon. And, just respect to their neighborhood and community. The whole thing brings a tear to my eye. Respect.
Honestly, I can’t think of a better commentary on community, love, dedication to craft than this piece. Even if you’ve never been to Brooklyn somehow all this resonates with something inside us. And then, great pizza! Kudos to all who made this! Respect.
