Portnoy Gifts Fan Buffalo Chicken Slice During Review Of Jersey Shore Pizzeria
Buffalo chicken pizza isn't Dave Portnoy's taste. And neither is a floppy crust. The Barstool CEO, continuing his "One Bite" review stint along the Jersey Shore stopped by Salerno's in Hazlet. The Bethany Road pizzeria threw in a free slice of buffalo chicken, but Portnoy made it abundantly clear, it's not his thing. So much so that he gave it to a nearby fan. Portnoy ultimately gave the pizza 7.3, deducting points for a floppy crust, but the fan reviewed his free slice of buffalo chicken: 8.3.

Pizza? At A Brewery? Here's How Portnoy Scored Pies At This NJ Beer Spot
The Jersey Shore pizza tour continues. At a brewery. Barstool Sports CEO Dave Portnoy stopped by Alternate Ending Beer Co. in Aberdeen to try its pies. To be clear, the kitchen is run by Talula's, an Asbury Park-based restaurant whose website touts sourdough pizza. Portnoy, on the second stop of his "One Bite" review tour, said the pie was Detroit-style, and more of a winter pizza. "It looks heavy, it is heavy," he said. "It's good stuff — it's heavy." His final score? 7.2.

In a 6-0 vote last month, Seaside Heights council members approved the designation of a Boston-based redeveloper for the hotel, to be built on the Lincoln Avenue and Ocean Terrace lots where Dry Dock, Glendale, and Surfside motels currently stand. The firm, 6M Development, shared a brief description of the…
