Golden Boy Pizza - Popped Another Cherry
Qwik-E Post Stats.
So my cousin Star and I were at Naked Lunch to have the foie gras sandwich. Since we split the sammie, we were still a bit hungry, so we headed to Golden Boy Pizza which was not too far away.
Right when we got to the front of the place, we were beckoned to the window and spied on the girl behind the counter serving up the square-shaped slices.
Sheets of pizza topped with pepperoni to clams to olives lined the window only making us debate in our minds which ones to order.
After MUCH deliberation we both ordered the combination which was a red-sauced slice adorn with pepperoni, sausage, onion, tomatoes, and zucchini.
You know I am anal about people ordering the same thing. I like to try different things when I go to a new place, but the medley of ingredients on this particular slice lured the both of us.
The girl who were watching in awe earlier slung our slices into the oven to heat and crisp up a bit. After a few moments she brought them back out and placed them on red-checkered paper. We were invited to add our cheese and red pepper flakes on top. She wrapped them and we were out the door.
PLUS you know I love taking pictures of what I am eating. Too bad so sad I did not capture a picture of the slice. I was too busy walking down Columbus eating my slice like a tourist to even care.
The tomato sauce had the perfect hint of sweetness and tanginess. The vegetables and meat clung onto the hot cheese perfectly so that they did not come sliding off of the pizza. We were lucky to get the slices that hugged the sides of the sheet pan so the edges had a lovely crispness.
I am going to be bold when I say this:
Golden Boy is officially one of my favorite slices in San Francisco.
I remember going to Pier 39 with my family as a child and eating square-shaped pizzas.
This totally brought back memories.
Anyway...
I love this place.
Love at first sight.
Go there.

PS: Now we are here at a random cafe on Polk and my cousin and her friend are talking about "orgasm meditation" and taking each other's energies and crystals.
Holler.
