\"Gaby's
A Gaby’s pepperoni slice is a substantial piece of pizza.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Shortly after we moved to Forest Hills, I mentioned on Instagram or Facebook wanting to explore pizza in eastern Queens.\u00a0Monique “@eatinistbitch” Henry<\/a>\u00a0recommended Gaby\u2019s in\u00a0Hollis. I finally got\u00a0Margot\u00a0out there yesterday on a\u00a0#PizzaAdventure.<\/p>\n

Gaby\u2019s is a true neighborhood institution, with photos of local luminaries (Run-DMC!) lining the walls and a steady stream of customers ordering slices to stay and picking up pies to go.<\/p>\n

\"Gaby's
Gaby’s plain slices are supremely cheese-laden.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The slices at Gaby\u2019s are thicker than the typical NY-style and much more cheesy. (I\u2019d love to go back and get a whole pie\u2014it\u2019d make for a fantastic \u201ccheese pull\u201d pic.) Balance, though, remains in check, more or less, by a generous amount of sauce (which is a bit sweet). The thicker crust benefits from a long reheat, coming out super crisp.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m sorry it took me so long to get out to Gaby\u2019s. I\u2019ll have to make it there again sooner rather than later. And my next visit will definitely be for a whole pie. Until next post, folks, hasta la pizza<\/em>.\u00a0??\u270c<\/p>\n
