Food memories are incredibly powerful. That specific flavor you ate growing up, no matter what cuisine is branded into your taste buds. There are precious few people like Paulie Gee out there who want to make pizza taste old school. The majority of pizzeria owners don’t really give much thought to nostalgia or they’re trying to reinvent the wheel using new types of flour and techniques. For me, I hit up the old joints as much as I can and places like Paulie’s that reach back to the past.

What exactly is that GM doing there talking to the camera with his hands in his pockets, standing in everyone's way looking hungover whilst everyone else is working their asses off in the middle of service The way everyone avoids eye contact with him and tries to look busy whilst he's around tells me what I need to know about this place.
Is he the owners spoiled brat of a kid

I appreciate how he wasn't trying to be the best or put all the bells and whistles into his product. He has a specific vision and does the best he can with that goal in mind. It was also neat to hear where all his ideas came from and the history behind his choices--he isn't trying to be original, he is respecting a legacy.

I'm curious about how to get Sicilian dough to crisp up, without it blowing out. I've tried par baking the dough with nothing. Par baking with just dough and sauce and baking with everything. Never get the consistent results I'm looking for.

I've never been to Paulie Gee's. I've never had their pizza. But, after watching this video, it's undeniable that they are keeping and advancing New York's cherished pizza culture. I hope to try their pizza one day.

Went there once cuz I was in the area. . And the staff was aloof and probably high. They gave me a slice on a hot paper plate. The paper plate. Was. Hot. Annoying. It was ok. Never been back.

Once an owner dies, quality will drop and it’ll be like any other piece of cheap pizza shop, tasteless, thin, not much crust, high price pizza. Sad.
