Take Nino's Bellissima Pizza, where a cool thousand can get you a 12-inch, thin-crusted pie layered with crème fraiche and topped with lobster tail and four different types of caviar. As with the omelet, it's the fish eggs that turn a ten dollar pizza into a wallet-busting event. Nino's owner, Nino Selimaj, said that after spreading $750 worth of caviar, he's left with a measly $250 profit.
"Delicioso," said Abelson as he sampled the work. "I think that was a $33 bite."
We took Jeremy's leftover slices out for some second opinions.
A Domino's delivery guy gave the pie the thumb's down. "Where's the garbage?" he asked, after tasting the pizza.
But Anthony, a downtown vendor, said he thought it was worth every penny.
I saw this on Yahoo.com. We tried caviar at New Year's. Most of it went into the garbage. I'll pass on anything made with salty, bitter fish eggs. :)
Never had it, but with your estimation I will be sure not to try it.
that is some pizza! not sure i'd want to try it though! lol
