text: stars for food and ambience Minus star for servicennCibo is the average answer to Pizzeria Bianco I cannot believe they have even been compared the only similarity I can think of is geography The crusts are worlds apart at least on the night we went nnWe chose to take some out of town guests to Cibo last night because ofn all the praises we read on Yelp and other median the fact that it is one of the few wellregarded independent places open on a Monday nightn it looked cute from the outsidennApparently other people thought the same All the tables for four were full inside so we took a table in the patio which turned out to be a blessing because we got lots of privacy to talk nnThe downside though was getting the attention of the waiter Ice water was poured and menus were handed out as soon as we sat down but the waiter appeared over min later When we ordered a refill on a glass of wine after the appetizer he came with it almost at the end of our mealnnWe order the antipasto speciale large to share The plate was huge generous slices of prosciutto slices of bresaola with shaved pecorino on arugula slices of grilled zucchini mounds of balsamic pearl onions giant olives grilled red peppers with capers and parmesan and cherry tomatoes with bocconcini and basilnnPizzas are split between Rosse red and Bianche white On the waiters recommendation we ordered these n Red Diavola tomato sauce mozz and spicy salame n White Siena grilled zucchini mozz speck smoked proscuitto and pecorino nnVERDICT Cibo vs Pizzeria BianconnThe toppings were generous and tasty but the major complaint we had was the CRUST Pizzas all about the crust This was more like charred bread it was not crusty in the least bit The dough had a nice chew to it but no crunch whatsoever nnChris Biancos dough is so brilliant because there is an awesome contrast between the crusty exterior and the pillowy interior Chris crust is so thin that you can inhale slice after slice but here we had trouble eating more than slices nnEven though this pizza was baked in a brick oven there was no smokiness to it almost as if it was flashbaked Pizzeria Biancos crust not only has texture but a complexflavored interior and smoky exterior Eating pizza will never be the same againnnWINNER Pizzeria Bianco
