Outer-borough superiority is a myth. Most local outer-borough places are simply bad. This includes all the usual suspect neighborhoods: Belmont, Pelham Bay, Bay Ridge, Bensonhurst, most of Staten Island, etc. The good places are the exception in the outer boroughs, just as they are in Manhattan.
The link's list looks decent to me but it's not because of the geography.

I didn't say all the places in the outer-boroughs were inherently better. I said a list where the individual actually went to the outer-boroughs is more qualified in my opinion. I don't really care what someone thinks about pizza if they just went to the top 5 places that they saw on instagram. I also don't really care about your opinion on pizza too. Oh you went to pelham bay and didn't get a good slice at the joint you chose? Seems more like a you problem. Maybe make some friends, talk to the locals. I grew up in an outer-borough and I know the good spots in my neighborhood and the bad. Seems like you have difficulty navigating these things. Sorry about that.
I’ve spent less time in Queens, but it seems Queens really does have a lot of great food outside of the hotspots.
Oh, and you heard that Queens has good food too? Wow, we've got Pete Wells over here! Share more secrets.
But this is a thread about pizza. It’s a guy who tried 400 slices of pizza. You think he only tried 400 slices because his kids played on a little league team? So that’s my take. In no way am I saying Williamsburg is objectively better than Bay Ridge in all aspects of life (if anything I’d say the opposite I’d probably never live in Williamsburg), which for some reason you took from my post. I’m saying the pizza tastes better to a person who doesn’t have an emotional attachment to some other place.
> It's all over the city, but folks like you gotta make lists.
You seem very confused about the post you’re commenting on. It’s a list. I mean, it’s a map, but for all intents and purposes it’s a list. It doesn’t capture anything that you seem to care about when it comes to slice shops. It actually only seems to note price which is perhaps the shallowest metric out there.
Also yeah, Ill go ahead and say elmhurst has better food than Bensonhurst just to see what your reaction is lol.

I really don't care!
