A Slice of NY by the sea
02.01.10
New York-style pizza in Seal Beach? You betcha. The tiny pizzeria on Main St. may be mere steps from the beach, but it really does deliver a respectable rendition of NY’s beloved pie. Pizza-lovers have long been hailing Slice of New York Pizza as one of the most authentic joints in Orange County for giant slices of pizza with just the right thinness and crispness (ask for the crust to be extra well-done if you want that more crunch). At $6 for two slices and a soda, you can’t really beat that now can ya?
It gets packed quickly, but at least you can grab your slice and take a stroll toward the ocean and remind yourself how lucky you are to get a taste of the Big Apple pie right here in OC.
A Slice of NY Pizza is located at 142 Main Street in Seal Beach

Still smitten: Lola Gaspar
02.01.10
After more than year in business, downtown Santa Ana’s darling gastropub-meets-tapas bar is still going strong. Three words you should become acquainted with when you arrive to Lola Gaspar: duck confit fries. The dish—which features pulled duck piled on a crispy bed of fries and topped with salsa verde, crema and queso—is a tasty play on carne asada fries, a popular Mexican fast food treat. Come to think of it, Lola Gaspar’s menu pays homage to another street food: tacos, except you can find specialty versions including venison and buffalo meat tacos, too. The mac & cheese, served in a cast-iron skillet, comes with chicken and mushrooms, yet another tasty comfort dish. Coming soon: Monday night BBQs and whiskey tastings that won’t bust your wallet.
Lola Gaspar is located at 211 W 2nd St in Santa Ana
