I’ve probably eaten slices from Rose & Joe’s more than from anywhere else, and I can say from considerable experience that an edge (but not a corner), on a plate, no reheat is the way to go. It loses something in the reheat, and in fact is best somewhere between warm and not-straight-out-of-the-oven hot. I like to add red pepper flakes, pepper, and oregano — but they’ve hidden that last one lately. Pro tip: If you want a shake of Parmesan on it, ask. They keep it in the fridge.
Rose & Joe’s Italian Bakery: 22-40 31st Street, Astoria NY 11105
