The New York neighborhood of Baldwin is an authentic Italian community when it comes to the pizza they love and are known for. It is common knowledge that New York pizza was derived from Neapolitan pizza, and almost immediately, New York-style pizza gained ground and acceptance, spreading across the country fast. For that reason, it may be quite difficult to find localities where Neapolitan is the fancied pie. Well, Baldwin is one of those. So great is their love for authentic Italian pie that the second most common style of pie in this New York community is Sicilian pizza, and not New York pizza. What this means is that what you’ll find across the pizzerias in the locality are authentic Neapolitan pies made with original and fresh ingredients – the dough, mozzarella cheese, raw tomatoes, olive oil, and fresh basil. There are no fancy toppings on the thin-crust pie, unless you specially request them, because it’s a culinary delight in its simplicity.
