Veloce Pizzeria



















is owned by the same chef/owner as Porchetta and is located in NYC's East Village at 103 1st Avenue.

I was fortunate to be invited to a special Happy Hour that featured free tastes of pizza. I had a glass of Prosecco for $8.

The pizza is square with a crisp crust. I tried the mushroom (with mozzerella, thyme and grana padano), porchetta sausage (with rosemary, sage, fennel pollen, tomato sauce, mozzerella) and five onion (with sweet onion, leek, scallion, shaved red onion, chive, ricotta). They were all very good and I look forward to returning for a real meal.

Sorry there are no photos of the actual pizzas - I was standing and eating and did not have a free hand to take any pics!
