Is Scarr’s the best pizza in New York? Some may debate this, but if you ask anybody in the industry, Scarr Pimentel’s shop on Orchard Street takes the prize. In this episode, Scarr joins us in the TASTE studio to talk about his deep NYC pizzeria history, his dedication to ingredients (to an extent many may not recognize), and his new cookbook, The Scarr’s Pizza Cookbook. Also on the show, we have a great conversation with Craig Mod. Craig is a prolific writer, photographer, and author of a terrific new memoir, Things Become Other Things. Craig’s walks around rural Japan are legend, and we talk about how walking allowed him to tap into a much deeper story. This interview was recorded live at Rizzoli Bookstore in New York City, and part of our ongoing live interview series with the bookseller. Do you enjoy This Is TASTE?
