L&B Spumoni Gardens - Brooklyn, New York

What started out as a horse-drawn wagon selling spumoni and pizza before WWII later became a full-service restaurant in the 50's and has been a beloved Brooklyn fixture ever since. Today, L&B Spumoni Gardens is known for its "world-famous" Sicilian pie made in the traditional Sicilian pizza-style with a rectangular shape, thick crust and the sauce placed on top of the cheese (it's delicious, trust us!). It's also served in square slices as opposed to triangles. If the weather is nice, order at the walk-up window and grab a seat at one of the picnic tables outside.
