My favorite is Royal Crown(I make a special trip every time i visit brooklyn). Its on 14th Ave and 66th ST. Its a quick trip if you live on 3rd or 4th Aves. They have the best Italian (long and round) loaves around. Their olive bread is superior, and they have what they call stone bread.A ciabatta like bread that has a large amount of corn meal on the outside of the loaf. This gives it a very crisp crust. Their pastries and cakes are good quality "Italian bakery" style. If its great bread you're looking for this is the place. By the way they alo have a store on 14th near 63rd in Brooklyn.
I totally agree. There is no better than Royal Crown!

Cross Posted from the NY Board:::
Hi, first post here.
A few comments::
Denino's--Excellent, try the M.O.R pie. Meatballs Onions Ricotta. Also, try their fried calamari. Maybe the best I have ever had.
L&B Spumoni Gardens-- To get the true experience go on a summer night in July or August, make sure you get a few squares from a steaming hot fresh pie.
Also, someone asked where to find this type of slice in NJ. Well, Spumoni Gardens is now open in Old Bridge on Rte 516. Not as good as Brooklyn, maybe something to do with the water here in NJ, the dough isn't the same,but as close as you're going to get in NJ. Whoever said Palumbo's in Old Bridge is good, must also like Pizza Hut or Dominoes
Totonnos in Coney Island and Grimaldis under the Brooklyn Bridge-- THE best pies you will ever have!! Period.. Try the white pie at Totonnos for an extra treat.
Also in Bklyn, if you're ever in the area of 18th Ave. and would like a coal oven pie try Il Colloseo on 78th St and 18th.
For slices in Bklyn, try DaVincis on 65th and 18th not as good as L&B, but pretty good nonetheless.
In Staten Island, Nunzio's-- Pretty good but nothing special to me. Closed for renovations presently in case anyone was planning on visiting
Goodfella's--I had a bad experience at the Brooklyn location. I'll leave it at that.

Well, after a months wait, it is finally here. I have a 9:15 reservation at Nobu. Any suggestions? I am really a sushi novice, only have tried rolls, and toro. Tips please???
