Best Pizza Book by the Best Pizza Chef January 4, 2007 I am lucky enough to live close enough to the pizza restaurant owned by the author of this book. His pizza is as delicious as any pizza I have ever had. I bought the book since I am a huge fan of the restaurant and his world champion pizza throwing team. I am a novice cook but was able to make all the pies in this great cookbook come to life. Thank you, Tony, for giving me access to the best pizza has to offer.
Love all of the recipes in this book! June 14, 2006 7 out of 8 found this review helpful
I took a pizza class from the author and she taught us how long to knead the dough, etc. This book is really precise and has several different kinds of pizza, California, Chicago, New York and Italian. I highly recommend this book.

This is a fantastic cookbook. It is soo simple to learn from wich is how a cookbook should be. I love the many different ways to make the traditional pizza . My children love that they too can help out with their own dinner.. The Authors are truly pros at this!!!
Great pizza March 21, 2006 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I just recently dove into home pizza making and bought this book looking for inspiration. I have found this book to have many good recipes, some sound strange, but all are delicious (see the Big Kahuna Pizza).
Photos are included for only a few of the pizzas so some of the more complex combinations that require ingredient prep are tough to follow (Big Kahuna again, does the prosciutto wrap the shrimp lengthwise or crosswise?). In almost every case there are plenty of instructions to make each pizza, and all of the strange sounding combinations of ingredients are delicious!!
I wish there were a little more information on working with dough, and formulas instead of volume measurements, but the recipes for dough have proven to work well. I am just starting but have tried to toss the dough after reading Tony's advice. The dessert pizza with a sweet dough has been a big hit with my kids.
This is a good pizza cookbook with a lot of Tony's input from many years in the pizza business. Obviously his California style combinations have been proven to be hits with customers over the long haul in his shop.
And yes, with this book you will be able to make a reasonably good NY style pizza.
the art of pizza February 24, 2006 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I have to say i read this book thinking i knew what there was to know about pizza. However after reading this book its great to know that we are always learning. I called this book the art of pizza because after reading it i beleive both authors have a true passion for pizza tony's receipes go beyond a pizza maker it go's to homes. What i mean by that he makes it easy for yo understand and learn if you are not a pizza maker. Also i never knew about desert pizza (i wasn't sold on them)however after reading the book i went and gave it a shot and like to say is a homerun.I also think that diane morgan is extroridanary writer her work in this book was 2nd to known.Its a must read book. the to came togehter to make this a MUST READ.
