The Motorino City

Before the Motornio hoopla hit about its new Manhattan branch, I had my eye on the Williamsburg pizzeria.

Now, it was time to hit it up. Viva la Brooklyn!

With my pal Jennifer and her red-headed two-year-old tot in tow, we nabbed an early dinner table and decided to be daring. No typical 'za here. Oh, no. We ordered up a pie topped with oozing, smoky Scarmoza cheese, meaty chunks of salty Pancetta bacon, slivers of slightly sweet Butternut Squash and fragrant, flash-fried Sage Leaves.

Jenn convinced her tyke that the squash was just like a melon and suddenly he was chowing down like the two of us.

For once, something that lives up to the hype. Viva la Motorino!
