SO lets just admit that:
1) US European ingredients are by nature not as good as Italian ones. no better than anyone elses.
2) Let the cooking Italians define pizza, and they live in New York.

FIFY

There are radio/TV ads for a chain franchise "Poppa John's Pizza" trying (unsuccessfully) to get a foothold in NYC/Vicinity.   Since the stuff would be a poor excuse for a frozen supermarket pizza they use the European model: "Better Ingredients - Better Pizza".   Sounds like your claims.   Maybe you should open a franchise!

(Oh, and I can eat good food on the coast near me for say 30 euros a head, with wine, all while wearing swimming shorts and a T shirt, so dont think European food is about snob value and expensive.)
I guess you missed it - I could feed a family for 30 Euros with the best tasting food - and, in our case, the waitress can be wearing the shorts (probably saves 10 Euro/person right there).

US beef isnt irony in taste
Nay and Neigh: you're probably used to eating the meat from over-aged horses (which we ship to Europe). I cannot answer for the taste so I can only speculate.

the best place in France
is obviously any other country. All hype. Did you ever read the children's story "The Emperor's New Clothes" ? That's the only reason anyone would eat that stuff let alone pretend it was anything special. Mainly, the cuisine consists of garden pests.


But basically you managed to get the point: NYC is the place to go for a good feeding. Egalitarian to the N'th degree, whether a Snobateria or steet vendor. If you're not good it's easy to move on.

And what the hell's this fixation on artichokes ? At least if you picked something useful, like German Hops, I'd understand your interest.
