Food review #2 Spinatos

Ever since my older brother Joe and Sam introduced me to NYPD, a pizza place in Scottsdale, I have been HOOKED! They like seriousley have THE BEST PIZZA EVER!!! Sam and I were like TOTALLY sold out and LOYAL fans to NYPD!!! Like, even this one time, we were at Oreganos and we ordered pizza, and at the end we were like thankin our waitress and saying the food was all good and what not and the waitress says, "Oh I know, don't we have the BEST PIZZA EVER?!?! It was silent for a moment then Sam says, "Actually Ma'm NYPD is better!!!" HAHAHAHAHA!!! It was really funny to cause they are right next to each other!!!!

So IMAGINE my shock when Sam tells me that there is a new Pizza place called Spinatos him and Janelle have been going to and it's like REALLY, REALLY good!!! I am like, "Better then NYPD?!" AND he says, "Yeah, I really think it is!" I was HORRIFIED!!!

"SAM, YOU TRAITOR!!!!"

Sooooooooooooooo OF COURSE I HAD to go try it!!! Cause I remember when I did my food review about Grimaldi's that KERI had said Spinatos was the best! So I figured, BETTER see what it's all about!!!

I went with the mind set of...

YOU ARE NOT BETTER THAN NYPD!!!!!!!

So here I am being a TOTAL pizza snob...

Here it goes...the test...

OMW!!! It's AWESOME!!! LIKE WOW!!!

Cheesy pizza grin...

OH and omw- they have THE COOLEST thing ever!!!
A spagetti calizone!!! LIKE how funky weird and delish is that?!?!

Its best with them adding ricotta cheese in it!!! GOTTA go and try this people!!!

The pizza is thin crust, with like an almost crispiness of the cheese and I honestly think it tastes even better WITHOUT the pepperoni...which is weird cause Pepperoni pizza is THE BEST!!!

Jimmy says it's Spinatos sauce that makes it so awesome and I gotta agree!!!

So the question remains,

IS SPINATOS PIZZA BETTER THAN NYPD?!?!

I HONESTLY don't know!!!
.

See Spinatos sauce is soooo different and unique...its got a little bit of a sweetness to it, which i REALLY like!!! HOWEVER, NYPD'S sauce is incredible too...BUT NYPD's sauce is more authentic Italian. My brother John says that ITALIAN'S don't put sugar in their sauce. We cook it very slow, all day with meat in it...like chicken, sausage, meatballs, etc...and the meat gives it the flavor! SO if you don't like Spinatos sauce you wont like the pizza...LOL
.

I know for sure that Spinatos PIZZA is better than Streets of New York, Oregano's and Grimaldi's. But between the two, it's for sure a BIG competition!!! It's sooooooo close it's SCARY!!!
.
*BUT JUST FOR THE RECORD; MY BROTHER JOHN REALLY DOES MAKE THE BEST HOMEMADE PIZZA EVER!!!! HOW he got into pizza making is a WHOLE OTHER STORY...LOL...Sisterly challenge...hahaha!!!! Oh and DON'T tell him I said his is better!!!!!!!!! He is already SO full of it!!! :P

The Votaws!!!

He has preached all over the US, China, Taiwan, the Philipines, Vietnam and many more Asian countries. He preaches in underground churches in communism countries. He converted a man on death row in prison to Christ and 3 hours before that man died he baptized him in Jesus name. He prayed the first man in Vietnam to kill and americn soldier through to the Holy Ghost and Baptized him in Jesus name. He has converted trinitartin preachers all over to the Oneness doctrine...BUT ABOVE all else...I thank God that I TOO am ONE OF THOSE souls he reached out too...he gave 7 years of his life to New York City!!! I thank God that he answered the call!!! It wasn't until his 6th & final year as pastor there, that our family came into church...we were there for 9 months before we came to AZ and then right after that the Votaws left NYC for the mission fields of Asia...I THANK God that someone had a burden for NYC!!!

Sis. Kathy!!!

This is the woman that invited my Momma to a Pentecostal church!!! She told me that she was actually new in the church herself and that she would see my mom in the front yard of our house playing with us kids and she just wanted so badly for my mom to have what she had just recieved herself. It may have been just one person that she was witnessing to at that time, but that one person has had an affect on her own five children and now its her Grandchildren that are still recieving the blessing of Sis. Kathy's witness. 25 years ago, it wasn't just my mom...I may have only been two at the time, but it was ME she was winning too! I thank God she wasn't afraid to be a witness and that she didn't give up on my mom. For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call. (Acts 2:39) When you decide to live for God it doesn't just stop with you!
