What better way to pass the time than by searching for the best pizza in Brooklyn? On Saturday, we decided to try a place by the name of Grimaldi's. Located right under the Brooklyn bridge, Grimaldi's is known for its coal-fired brick oven pizza.

Grimaldi's pizza is an institution, and very well known- literally stood in line for an hour with about a hundred other people waiting to get a table in the tiny pizzeria. Since it was close to 65 degrees outside, and we were right by the Brooklyn Bridge park, we decided to order it as takeout, and go sit and eat pizza in the park, overlooking Manhattan.
As most of you know, I am infatuated with the Bridge, so this was the perfect day. Not only was the pizza fantastic, but our view was amazing! And I might as well tell you that we simply ordered a cheese pizza with pepperoni, size large- 8 slices. I ate 4 slices of pizza... it was that good.
I honestly love Brooklyn- yes, more than I like the city. There just seems to be so much more in Brooklyn in terms of finding hidden treasures. And while of course, everyone knows these two places, it's that much more fun when you discover them for yourself on your own time.
Wash it all down with some Brooklyn lager, and you have a full day's worth of Brooklyn- great pizza, decadent cheesecake, and tasty locally brewed beer. What more could you ask for?
