Apparently twelve pizzas (including sausage- and pepperoni-topped ones) and as many cannoli were delivered to President Obama’s hotel suite in Las Vegas on Wednesday, the Review-Journal reports. They came from the two-month-old Dom DeMarco’s Pizzeria & Bar, the Sin City outpost brought to you by the extended family of Midwood’s sainted pizza man. DeMarco’s says its pizzas are the same as Di Fara’s — “carefully handcrafted using closely guarded recipes and quality imported ingredients” — so, you know, by extension, it’s sort of like the president ate at Di Fara Pizza; take that, NYC DOH!
