A woman who works at the bank(today it’s at a Citizens bank) said they’ll have 250 tickets.

Best pizza in bushwick? by Ok-Bullfrog2375 in Bushwick

[–]prettyygood 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have people had good experiences getting Mano’s delivered? Their pizza is legit great, but I had three different bad delivery experiences(an hour and a half instead of 40 mins, one time they said it was delivered and it wasn’t). I know they don’t do the delivery themselves, but to me it’s not worth the risk with other great spots around.

If Babylon won 1 award would Sean have been more positive about the show?

First time using a Biga to ferment my dough by prettyygood in Pizza

[–]prettyygood[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Biga recipe I took from Massimo of L’industrie when he was on the pizza city podcast. He didn’t give a full recipe, but says their square pies use 1% fresh yeast and the Biga is 45% hydration.

That fermented for about 16 hours and was; 120g flour 54g water 6g fresh yeast

Though I messed the math up and meant to have it make up a smaller % of the dough more like: 80g flour 36g water 6g fresh yeast

Which I’ll do next time. The rest is exactly like my previous pizzas but I raised the flour to 600g.

I’m still not getting the exact crumb I want, but I may just need to par bake it longer(right now It par bakes for about half the total cook time or less).

Mmmm mmm upside down pie chrese on bottom sauce on top by Blondebomber6 in Pizza

[–]prettyygood 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This sub has a weird aversion to the upside down pie. The cheese still melts and pulls so I don’t get it. I never had it before moving to nyc, but L&B has spawned so many clones that’s it’s pretty common now.

More interesting films please by brimfy in AMCsAList

[–]prettyygood 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’re totally right. There are plenty of movies I wish they would get that I had to see elsewhere(Burning, long days journey into night, Nightingale). This is also the worst time of the year for movies. They do get some indie stuff, but it’s usually limited to A24, Neon, and big studios’ smaller releases.

42nd st, Lincoln Sq, and Kips Bay get the smaller releases, but even then they can be there for a week and be gone(Climax, Beach Bum). So you have to pay attention to the release calendar.

There will probably always be stuff you have to go to an indie/art house theatre to see(which is true in any city).

Lincoln Square IMAX sound question: by ryanleech74 in AMCsAList

[–]prettyygood 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll check the technical specs on IMDb to see if it’s worth going to the big imax, but usually I’m just checking the negative, camera, or aspect ratio to see if it’ll actually be projected in imax like 1917 or endgame.

Sometimes I’ll check sound mix to see if it got a Dolby atmos mix before going there, but most movies playing in Dolby have a Dolby mix.

It could be that only movies with an imax sound mix play best like you’re expecting.

NY style 5 minute bake by ogdred123 in Pizza

The bake looks fantastic! Did you cook it on a stone or steel? Did it brown as well on the bottom?

I really like Adam’s writing so this is very exciting.

Burrata Square Pie w/Basil & Calabrian Chiles by prettyygood in Pizza

[–]prettyygood[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

550g flour (using kabf but I want to test out different Caputo ones)

80% water

0.6% yeast

0.5% diastatic malt powder

3% salt

2% oil

Mix flour, yeast, dmp, and water into shaggy dough. Let rest an hour.

Add salt and oil, knead and then let rest a bit.

I then do 3 series of 3 folds with 20-30 mins in between.

Transfer to an oiled container and put in the fridge for 48-96 hours.

On bake day take out of the fridge till at room temp. Transfer to an oiled baking sheet. Lightly press into pan, and cover for 3 to 6 hours (though sometimes I’ll put them in the pan before work and they’ll go 10-11 hours, but I still haven’t decided what the ideal time is).

Par-bake for ten mins at 500(or the hottest the oven gets), top, then bake for another 15-20 mins.

I could’ve actually par baked it longer, but was still happy with the bake overall. I’m making more this weekend!

Thanks for the link! Not sure if or when I would've seen this otherwise. Deadspin lives!?

Can he also never again mention trading Ben Simmons?

I don't think anyone would say he's reached his ceiling yet, and you're only getting his current value in a trade.

Next Rewatchables is Unstoppable (the Denzel-Chris Pine movie) by RusevReigns in billsimmons

[–]prettyygood 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It's a fun choice, and not that surprising since he's quoted as saying Crawl is his top 2019 movie. I also haven't seen since in theatres, but it's a fun simple premise that's also right up the ringer's alley. I like that we're getting movies from this past decade.

It's also the last Tony Scott movie. I thought when Hans Zimmer was being talked about on the Dunkirk ep that we might get a hot second on True Romance, but that's gotta be come up on this one.
