One of our readers has a bone to pick with the media, especially today's AM New York pizza article. "Can everyone please stop calling Artichoke "Artichoke Basille's Pizza & Brewery"? The place is not a brewery! They have two beers - Bud and Bud Light available in 32 oz styrofoam cups for $5.50! Give me a break."
We have to say he has a point. The media often just blindly repeats nonsense without doing even basic research. We don't care if the owners want it called by such a nonsensical moniker, the place is known as Artichoke to everyone and that's what we'll call it.
Oh, and singling out Lombardi's as a "legend" is just wrong. The place is a tourist trap with overloaded crappy pizza. It's high time the media stop pushing that place as worth a visit.
