The Pizza Show: NYC's Other Boroughs
Вставка
- Опубліковано 3 чер 2024
- Frank Pinello has eaten his share of pizza in Manhattan and Brooklyn, but it's time for him to check out New York City's other boroughs-Queens, Staten Island, and the Bronx-to discover some of the city's best slices and pies. We start off in Queens with our favorite Renaissance man Action Bronson for a slice tour of two of his favorite places.
Then we're off to Staten Island with VICE security guard and foodie extraordinaire Vic Zagami to get some crispy bar pies and the legendary vodka pie at Goodfella's. The episode ends with a visit to the Bronx for a walk down Arthur Avenue with Mark Iacono, Frank's favorite pizza friend. Frank and Mark's walk is filled with fresh cheese, prosciutto, clams, tripe-and, of course, more pizza.

"step into my office"
-walks outside
Action knows he owns the streets
Unless Ghostface Killa is around.
NC Hawks Fan Iron man is GOAT
It shows how much etiquette he lacks!
@@Breatheable it shows hell eat you a live
@@ryanskynet6423
Ok
Bro action bronson is the prime example of how we should treat everyone with respect amd dignity
I agree. He is so fucking cool
Also, always reminds me of just to enjoy life, the simple things.
I prefer respect Intel dignity personally
Yeah, he's the coolest cat I've seen in a while. Love this guy
@@Tero92 he has a really relaxed attitude which is nice. I hope you dont mean enjoying life by eating like a pig as he does lmao, there will quickly be no life to enjoy. But he recently posted that he has changed his lifestyle and lost 100pounds so far thats great news
I love how the first thing Action Bronson asks the Mr. Softee guy is how he’s feeling. That’s love right there
Lmao damn im watching to just had to rewind.the shit looks goood asf
that's new york for you. Proper greeting!
So how did you feel with him telling kids to skip school and smoke dope? What is that called?
Action should play the piragua guy from In The Heights
@@salvagemonster3612 completely misinterpreted, way to go bud
" I just cane from the bronx I was mixing concrete" 🤣🤣🤣
*came
I think he was talking about frozen custard.
The hardest thing that dude has ever done was get out of a lawn chair
@@salvagemonster3612 lmao have you ever worked in a restaurant? That shit is hard
lemme know when you work 17 hours straight in a hot ass kitchen
@@salvagemonster3612
Bronson yelling "yeeerrrr" at the ice cream man had me hollering. This man cannot be more NY lmao
and then he hit em with the "ohhh you got IBS?" LMFAO
Lmfao true
One of Queens finest sons 💪
@@JordanDinRI yassss♥️♥️♥️
that's an east coast thing. We yell that out in jersey.
Frank is the most polite host, always giving the attention to the guests
Stefan Slater you can tell he's actually interested in their story and shares their passion for good food.
Jimmy Fallon can learn
T
Dat real
he reminds me of the kid version of the guy off the movie Split
Bronson always sounds like he’s rapping even when he’s just talking.
did u yell "YEEERRR"
That is because he is very ignorant and was to busy skipping school and smoking weed to get an education.
@@salvagemonster3612 *too. Looks like you were skipping school as well.
I met him on the sidewalk in NY a while ago, he is 100% as genuine and kind as he appears. Homeless or a billionaire, he treats everyone the same and I really respect this about the man.
He really is walking around with the tray 😂
Only way to do it
New York City baby. When u from the neighborhood you part owner. They know they gettin it back.
Roman49x lol ye ok buddy
Xxl D lxX buddy? Foh son.
Hilarious
“Just came back from the Bronx I was mixing concrete” LOL
Just Awesomee
Action Bronson
Exactly how the mob disposes of a body.
Holaa papi🤣
*26:25** Mark, the legend himself, the greatest pie maker just got denied hard lmao*
He disguised it pretty well lol
Rip
I don't think he saw him
You see Mark eager to shake his hand and just low key puts it down on his arm like he intended it :(
Well he didnt go to the back with the old man so he dont know him
action is a ray of sunshine. he puts me in such a great mood when i watch him go around nyc making/eating food
Seriously one of the coolest fuckin dudes ever
I love Frank, he doesn’t make the show about him. He really lets the guests get the spotlight.
Salty Cameron the hallmark of a great host for sure!
haha true. surely there's only so many times you can be amazed by pizza
He's just a pleasant dude. I'm sure there are less than favorable joints that don't make the cut.
Lol Bronson speaks Spanish like a straight up Dominican
nah albanian
That was unexpected has fuck when he spoke like that.
9
@VoteForQueso
He's Jewbanian.
(His mom is a Jewish lady.)
Yeah he said the kitchen he worked in for years were all spanish speaking from different places
"Oh you got IBS?? Word" LMAOOOOO
9:06 my mans almost pulled his soul out
I would watch a feature film length video of Bronson walking around Queens.
It wouldn't be entertaining for anyone that has an IQ over 60. You must be new to seeing Arian Bronson to not have picked up on his wigger behavior considering he doesn't speak with a ridiculous affect like that in front of his Mom.
John G.K. bruh
@John Sabp imagine being jealous of the man. He's a funny guy, get over it
You know you’re a pizza joint MVP when they let you take the tray
Being a pizza guy was the best job I’ve ever had. I genuinely miss having my regulars orders half made by the time they get to the door, so many customers asked me personally to make their pizza because the other guys just weren’t the same. 6 years later and people all over town still call me the pizza guy when I bump into customers
:)
Wholesome bro
I'm on 8 years in a small ass town, and I can in fact vouch for this. Regulars are what keeps food service running!!
Just gotta say, of all of Frank's friends (Frank is awesome, we all know, but can't be said enough), my fave is Mark. Dude is a great compliment to Frank. A bit more snarky than Frank, but still got that awesome humility and people skills like Frank. A great duo. Love that he's been in multiple episodes.
Frank an Action Bronson together, walking by Queens...can't get more New York than that!
don't forget some nas in the background that'd top it all off!
all i heard was old queensbridge nas in the background.
Except that fat Pos shouldn't be allowed to rep ny.
peterk814 why not? I’m actually curious.
Are you even from New York, cause it can get WAY more New York than that
Man, everyone in this video is the kind of person who can say "baby" and actually sound cool doing it.
mofongotron its a NewYork thing.

Why didn’t they show frank and mark at the Calabria pork store !?? It shows they were inside of it in the beginning of the video !
Thank you I was “prayin” someone did this didn’t I wanna interrupt the video to search xd
They should've went to "Frank Pepes" up in Yonkers. Some of the finest pizza on the planet!
I need a recipe for that style of chicken parm
Sweet!! I ain't much for pub crawls cause I don't drink much..but I DO love Pizzasa ( since I'm part Italian part Greek) If I ever go to New York, I have to try these spots!
feel like action kinda messed frank up taking him to the ice cream truck, watching him buy ice cream and then getting himself a slushie hahah
100%, can't stop laughing
Action is definitely one of the most genuine celebrities. I’m sure he’d be dope to chill with
And I get the feeling if you just showed up he'd let you hang no questions.
wait is he a celebrity for being a pizza guy or something else
Mick Davis lmfaoooooo wtf he’s a rapper
@@RichieGz Kinda glad I've never heard his stuff. No wonder why he acts like a wigger
@@mickdavis2385 what?
Frank: It's the fuckin ratio of chicken to sauce to mozzarella, it brings it all together great!
Action: It's so fuckin good
Frank and mark, pure legends there needs to be a reboot of this show
the raw amount of chill emanating from these guys is unstoppable
Bronson tucking his beard on the Sicilian slice is amazing
I laugh everytime Action pulls Frank for their handshake
lmao if you aint clapping hands with your peeps like that they aint your fam
😂😭
🤣🤣 yeah its like he twirls him in, & pats him with a little chest bump.
New Yorkers are so amazing man, feel blessed to have family of Italian descent
"She took a bump and started dancing like Elaine Benis"😂😂🤣😂Action my duude!!
Yo Vic is a real character they need to bring him back 😂
Indeed! :)
Pinello keeps looking at Bronson like don't get me demonetized bro haha
I love Frank and I love Action...I gotta' admit, this episode really made the entire series. Frank is such a genuine human being, full of love and admiration for humanity and pizza. This might be the 10th time I watched this episode, and I'm now planning a trip around the spots for later this year (2023) with a few friends.
I will update these comments once it comes to fruition.
any updates?
Being a pizza guy for 20+ years, the business and employee end killed it for me but every time I watch one of your episodes, I want to jump right back into it. The passion and the pride is what gets me. Some people just live and die pizza in their bones. So thankful to the Bronx family in business 40yrs now in Syracuse , NY that taught me.
This show is making me fall in love with New York. Gonna convince my lady to take our honey moon up there to visit these pizza shops.
Did you end up going?
Those 2 pizzerias in Queens are not considered the best
its a shit hole
@@MrJusmobile This guy didn't say anything about Queens.
Iam Tony guys.iam back. My wife called cops saying I beat her and am spending 10 Years in federal. Finally got a phone in here
lots of awkward handshakes, but i love it
Vice wouldn’t have gone bankrupt if they kept the pizza show going.
When Mark said "What's up brother" that was the realest shit for some reason. These two share amazing chemistry and are such a good duo on camera. They would definitely kill if they had a restaurant together. Or a show ;) MUNCHIES GET GOING
"He's the deputy mayor."
"I ain't deputy shit."
Lmfao.
Being a Dominican and listen to Frank, saying: "mangu con salami", made my day
Yeah you know Frank had some mangu con salami the next day wink wink
How he know ice cream was Dominican is what I'm asking
Classic
He sounded like the most humble guy in the world...can I trouble you for a pie....no trouble at all my friend.
"cut school to smoke weed"
damn that guy has balls to say it in-front of a police officer
NYPD might beat your ass,but there down to earth...a few will let you go.....
Plus 5-0 was showing love...Action is a man of the people! He heavily involved in my morning motivation playlist! "She took a bump and started dancing like Elaine Benis"😂😂🤣😂
clearly under the age of 13 you is aint ye
NYPD doesn't care about weed. It's decriminalized. Unless he's selling they don't care
You don’t get arrested for talking about weed lol
You know it’s going to be a great day when you see a new video from Frank!
Infinite Athletics yayy!! Totes agreed
Great Video !!!
www.amazon.com/Sunday-Sauce-When-Italian-Americans-Cook/dp/1490991026
...
Infinite Athletics amen
And you know it's going to be good when mark is also in this video.
Shoutouts to the producers and writers who put this together
I feel like of all the stereotypes in the world the "new york guy" seems to be the most accurate and the least exaggerated
It makes me so happy to know ppl like that security guard guy is around
26:25 Mark Iacono always too smooth
goddamn that was so smooth
Glad I'm not the only one who caught it
smoove*
i would beg him to redo that lmao
Turgeonn, no, smooth. Stop pulling a wigger-esque Arian Bronson move
its amazing how hard it is to convince people thin pizza is the best. It truly is. Chicago pizzas great, but thin crust pizza is the fucking best man. You brooklyn maniacs are doing it right
Right! I hate when my friends get Chicago deep dish. Its still really good but nothing beats thin.
Its weird but I get anxiety about pizza with a thick crust, I dont think I can eat it.
uber mensch both are pretty fuckin delicious
Chicago thin crust is naisu as well.
Chicago makes open face calzones, and there is nothing wrong with that... but its not pizza
8:36 That attitude of Gratitude means so much. Great perspective.
7:22 LOL! I thought the icecream truck was driving through my neighborhood again, it has the same exact melody! And I'm in the NETHERLANDS!
that security guy is the best !!! fav episode !!!!
Funny guy. Young vibes from an old man is rare.
They should have him in another episode he was hilarious. I want to see him intimidate someone. “Ayyyy ohh back off cazzo or you’re gonna catch a beating, capiche?”
He is not security. He is chief editor of vice...
I can’t stop saying:
“They better be servin it hot and qwisp”
@@bhaskarvarma99 "security"
please tell me someone counted all those missed handshakes lmaooo
Ljs Life i swear to god bro you know how many handshakes I give to my non-new Yorker friends and they dub my shit? Like they ask why
No nigga but i hope u clean yo socks
Big10 Cartel had to laugh so hard about your comment i almost puked
I caught a few
26:24 was painful to watch
This is the NY I remember, everyone knows each other, it’s so alive. Wouldn’t be that way without the cultures all coming together. That seems as close to heaven. It’s wild it’s not like this many other places on earth. I hope NY never loses this.
26:23 Nice recovery Mark
frank n bronson gotta have their own show together
abdibarre1 yaassss
abdibarre1 word!
I wish but the chemistry seemed a little off lol and a little awkward, the next two guys he seemed a lot more comfortable with
i would pay $10.99 a month for it
Bryson Kahue Because action took charge on the show. The other guys didn't, so it gave Frank a chance to lead which he's more comfortable with.
this is the friendliest and most cordial video I've ever seen on youtube
I don't know how many times I've looked up episodes of Munches, but you guys are so lucky to eat these fantastically delicious pizzas. Here in Korea, so many things have developed and it has a cosmopolitan character, but one pizza is really garbage. With the exception of a few high-street pizzerias, most pizzerias sell factory-made, perfectly circular dough with a few toppings for around $20. The pepperoni pizza also sells too expensive without even adding a few slices of pepperoni. The important thing is that Pizzaiola does not make the dough itself, but uses the dough made by the factory. It tastes like garbage. Or the taste of melted plastic. You don't know how much I envy you.
Germany has the same problem. We also don't have diners or something remotely related to that, which isn't a kebab place.
Love how New York this is!!! Italian Americans all over, New York culture, New York boroughs accents, and PIZZA! The best part. 😁😁. Ps: that teitel market looks LEGIT! I really wanna go there; id buy up half the store! lol
Thank god it's back! I was getting nervous for a lil bit
ImTooAbstract for a lil bit or for a lit bit?😋
get a life
caminantesolitair humor doesn't seem to be your forte buddy.
you don't even know what forte means amigo
caminantesolitair buddy you could write an essay and not know WTF you're on about.
11:36 "Welcome to Staten Island...New England's secret." lolololololol this dude.
Drink coke and eat pizza
20:07 that crunch is divine
The "yerr" to the ice cream man was all to familiar
I'm honestly so jealous that I didn't get to experience growing up in the Burroughs of NYC. I know I'll never truly understand it but I feel like I can experience it through the screen sometimes. It just seems like on any given day you can just be walking down the street and see the craziest shit that you couldn't make up even if you tried. There are so many wild characters and personalities from NY. I grew up in a small town in the Midwest which I'm sure has its own advantages and unique qualities that people from NY will never truly understand but man does it seem like NY would be a fun place to grow up. If you grew up there it probably just feels normal to you but where I'm from we don't have any of this stuff. I know it can't be all awesome and that everything has pros and cons but goddamn the sense of adventure just looks fucking cool.
damn that's just sad your telling me that this isnt normal to ya
I know this comment is 4 years old but I'm just now reading it. You don't have to have grown up in NYC to experience it. Just take a trip there one day and walk around. You'll see it everywhere you go.
@@beppo2814 experiencing *growing up* = / = 4 day touristy visit
@@andiuptown1711 i know, and agree with you 100%, but since this person can't go back in time, when they posted said that the closest they could experience is watching videos, my suggestion was what i think is the next best thing if they want to walk around and see crazy characters in person.
I know what you mean. I'm fascinated by NY. I'm from Detroit tho and I love it here.
As someone born and raised in NY...
This episode is sooooooooooo New York it's crazy lol love it
PS. Arthur Avenue in the Bronx is the real deal
Seeing Frank and Mark geek out on that pizza at Marios is the best. You can tell how genuinely impressed they were.
I think this is it... the best Pizza Show episode. Bronson entertaining as always, Vice security guy, recurring icon Mark, lots of traveling around NYC.
So much L’s on handshakes 🤣🤣
Alexis Diestro WADDYA EXPECT LOOK WHERE HE GOES
*Do not watch when hungry*
Mike Medusa Beats I am watching because I'm hungry
I'm watching this a day after having my wisdom teeth removed. It's torture!!
It's too late for me now. Crying in a corner. Need my fix.
haha im trying to get hungry haha
JUST got 2 cheese slices and a square from the local pizzeria after watching this. Didn’t get past the part of action Bronson’s 😂🍕
Every Sunday I order some good pizza in my city and I put this show on. It has become a ritual in my apartment , and this is my fav episode. Love the show guys
Bronson is the EXACT representation of how we(as human beings) should all act n treat others!
This episode took handshakes to a whole new level of awkwardness.
sorry to bring up such an old comment but BRO i was thinkin the smae thing
Lol did you see mark get curved at 26.28
26:28
9:08 Bronson almost rips Franks arm off giving him a pound 🤣
let my dude shake his arm ;-) omg that shit was colddd hahhahahahahah
Vice's best show. Would love to chill and have a slice with Frank.
I don’t know what’s better in this video - The pizzas or the characters!
So when is this show coming back?? We MUST see more pizzerias!! Love this show!
The answer to world peace: more Pizza Show
Come on Munchies, make it happen
26:25 Bruh 😂😂😂😂
Gochu Xl he played it off so well xD
I felt so bad for him cuz I did the exact same thing as he did 😂
poor guy hahahaha but I laughed
21:48 was worse LOL
Lol, I was looking for this!
26:25
Good save with the handshake Mike hahaha
Really enjoyed this video, the people are so unique, a real joy to watch. The food looks great also.
Yo can I get a job doing security for vice? Vic balling in the Audi Q5 n that
PWNED5805 comment of the day ;)
I noticed that too! Mans is living comfortable!
That dude was def prior law enf and this is his second job stackin that $$$$
That chicken parm seems amazing, simple but well made, I can tell by just looking at it.
10:46 I just like the atmosphere of them driving, police responding, and just an average scene out the window
26:26 the way he tried to play it off when the old guy left him hanging on the hand shake. 😂😂
Obviously awesome to see Aciton, but I also always love when Mark makes an appearance!
78 years of experience. My God. Most older people have this much experience of to know how to breath. Big respect to you Sir.
I just started watching this show. I love Action Bronson! Thank you!!!
Security guy and the vodka sauce " over the bridge. "...killin' it..great episode...thanks
When I lived in NYC I took for granted how easy it was to find great pizza. The term "If you can make it there you can make it anywhere" has a bit of truth to it. Now imagine making it there for nearly a century, how good you would have to be. Now that I moved out of NY none of the restaurants around me have any history and most of the food has no soul to it, with a few rare exceptions. I miss NY.
Currently watching this with no food in my house and no money at all. What a life
I've been there. I feel for ya.
I'll pray things change for you soon. I hope the rest of your life is extremely well lived...
Here 🍕🌭🍖🍗🌯🥙🍰🎂🍪🍩 enjoy.
Same here bro
Hahaha
Y'all are awesome I love to see people working having that much fun
being a long time bronson fan seeing him with the pizza guru frank.... cant skip this episode of munchies they need more of with.
9:06 Action almost threw Frank into a faceplant
I’m so happy. So many gems in my borough of the Bronx
To be fair, I live in Ottawa, Canada and nobody here makes crust worth eating.
lmao
Jeremy Hayes he didn’t even pull up to none of the spots in the X bro I’m disappointed we always get looked over I’m bout to start a series about Bronx food Cuz it’s dead🔥
Three Boys on Burke ave!!! A BX gem
YERRRRR
Y'all need to get these two (Frank & Action Bronson) together again to try out some more slices. Best Munchies video ever.
OMG, you went to my spot Mario’s. I was a kid going to them at a early age. One of my faves. This is been a real treat. I’m now in Florida but it’s nothing like New York City in the Bronx baby. As a pharmaceutical rep years ago, I made sure I bought all my doctors to this location. Showing big support for my community faves. So nice to see that they didn’t change. This made my day.😊
When Frank misses a handshake: "All around me are familiar faces."
When Mark misses a handshakes: "Ooooo, he's a smooth operator."
Fucking love this NY accent lol everything they say sounds like something from a movie
hat daourgs
action got the accent. frank got n Italian one
Frank sounds like he's from Boston lol
Eh...it's actually really annoying.
I'm actually from western new york which is still the east coast. We don't have an annoying accent like the fools over on the east side of the state.
I come back to this every week. Nice to see everyone again
17:50 He said "youz wanna take a selfie w me? Go ahead whip em out .. get in heeaaa" 🤦🏿♂️😂😂😂😂 that's my mans!!💪🏿
