There have been many stories written about pizza.

Here in Jersey, we take our pizza seriously.

Pizza is a part of the culture in New Jersey, and we're proud of that.

When we discuss pizza, we speak of our favorite toppings, and true New Jersey pizza aficionados agree that pineapple on a pizza should be outlawed.

However serious we are about our pizza, maybe there's room for some creativity.  Do we take our pizza too seriously?

Maybe, just maybe, we can open our minds to try something a little different with our pizza.  We can let our inhibitions down and try some new approaches to pizza.

No Pineapples Please

Let's get crazy...not pineapple crazy- that's insane, but if you're ready to try something different, and fun.  I have found your place.

Tony Boloney's Pizza in Atlantic City isn't for the faint of heart.  They're different.  They serve New Jersey pizza like no one else, and they do so with a New Jersey attitude.

A look at their menu reveals a host of creations only a demented mind can think of, but it works.

Religious Pizza

For instance, if you're looking for a religious touch, they offer The Jewish Cowboy. 8-hour burnt-end brisket, Passover sauce, dry aged mozzarella, babushka beet horseradish, and havarti.  Oy!

Or for the Catholic crowd, there's Pope Leo X.  They describe this pizza as,  pink vodka, f#!k-tons of smoked cup & char pepperoni, dry aged & smoked mozzarella, and pesto ranch.

Unusual yes.  Fun?  Absolutely.  Most importantly, the pizza is good.  Oh, and none have pineapple on top.
