Having Mayor De Blasio enjoy a fresh pizza with his favorite smoked mozzarella right out of the the Revolving Deck Brick Oven at the world famous Goodfella's Pizza was a lot of fun. He now joins the tradition started 20 years ago with Mayor Rudolph Giuliani and his "pepperoni connection" with Borough President and former US congressman Guy Molinari who was threatening the secession of Staten Island(The Forgotten Borough) from new York City at the time. Rudy even brought his staff to Goodfella's on the day he was re-elected because he liked Goodfella's so much.
"While we won't say pizza was the reason for the peace, it sure makes hungry Italians much more agreeable" said Scot Cosentino.
Then mayor Bloomberg began to follow suit, knowing that the predominately Italian borough of Staten Island enjoyed this community oriented fast casual eatery. Through three terms he could be seen eating and having his Goodfella's delivered, so it was no surprise when Mayor De Blasio made the pilgrimage after just 10 days in office to try one of their award winning pizzas. "Having had twenty years of successive New York City mayors enjoy pizza from The revolving deck brick oven is priceless, and if we have to add New York Style pizza eating to our pizza school to avoid another scandal with the mayor using a fork-so be it" said Andrew Scudera the three time International Champion Pizza maker from Goodfella's.
