DC Radio Station Puts Area Pizza To Shame

Local Washington, DC radio station WTOP recently received nearly 250 different nominations for the best area pizza places as part of contest currently taking place.

The station then narrowed the nominations down to ten places and is asking listeners to vote for their favorite. The only problem? The pizza places they picked are ridiculous!

I don’t claim to know much about the DC pizza scene, but I do know what places my friends and fellow food bloggers down there enjoy. WTOP’s list includes Domino’s. Yes, Domino’s. There’s no mention of 2 Amys, Bebo Trattoria, Comet Pizza, Red Rocks, Pizza Paradaiso or dozens of other places that I’ve heard are better than the places on this list.

Any city that lists Domino’s as one of the best places to get pizza there, puts shame to their city. C’mon, DC. You’re better than that.

The full list of nominees for WTOP’s Best Of Pizza are:

• Ben Yehuda Café & Pizzeria
• Domino’s Pizza
• The Don’s Wood-Fired Pizza
• The Italian Store
• Ledo’s Pizza
• Mamma Lucia
• Manny & Olga’s
• Pacci’s Neapolitan Pizzeria
• Tony’s New York Pizza
• Z Pizza
