Councilman Vincent Ignizio holding the controversial fork as State Senator Andrew Lanza points in disbelief. 

The new Mayor bit off more than he could chew with local Italians at the World Famous Goodfella's Brick Oven Pizza in Staten Island. Many regulars looked on in horror as the Mayor initially used a knife and fork to eat his Smoking Goodfella pie. "He was just using good-manners but soon realized he was friends and pizza experts so he quickly dropped the formality and folded his pizza in half as any good New Yorker would do" said Scot Cosentino the founder of both Goodfella's Brick Oven Pizza and the New York Brick Oven Company. His partner Andy had this to say "since we make gourmet pizza and are a full service restaurant we're kind of used to people eating both ways. It's all good". Aside from the "pizzagate" issue co-founder Marc Cosentino said "Mr. Debalsio seemed like a genuine down to earth guy when he spoke to us and asked us local business owners from the The Forgotten Borough about the concerns we have since we are physically removed from the rest of the city by water. As former sergeant NYPD I think  it's a good start and I have already tagged the fork as "evidence". If your in Staten Island feel free to come by eat some incredible pizza and view the infamous fork.
