TimeOut New York

On a dim corner of South Williamsburg, pizza nut Nino Coniglio twirls blistered pies that bridge the gap between old and new Brooklyn. Coniglio trained under DiFara’s legendary Domenico DeMarco, and it shows in his crunchy Grandma slice, devoutly layered with creamy house-made mozzarella, San Marzano tomato sauce and basil ribbons. Alongside such tried-and-true classics, there are voguish combos to please the nabe’s kale-loving set, like one with the leafy green, spicy pork sausage, pine nuts and Taleggio. A standard eight-serving pie sets you back $15, so the only guilt you’ll feel after scarfing down four slices is over your waistline.
