Thursday, March 17, 2011
Travel + Leisure ranks the top cities in America for pizza. Sure, Providence's finances are not great, the schools need a bit of work, but according to T+L, the pizza in Providence spanks Boston and follows only Chicago and New York.
The venerable lifestyle publication writes:
The birthplace of grilled pizza shot to nearly the top of the AFC pizza survey. But AFC voters have found a lot of authentic fare in this Rhode Island city: it also ranks No. 3 for ethnic food and No. 2 for neighborhood joints. Voters also gave it a thumbs-up for its culture: it ranks in the Top 10 for both live music and museums.
