In his latest bust of online foul play, Attorney General Andrew Cuomo has issued subpoenas to Pizza Hut, Orbitz, Barns & Noble and other big online retailers that give sketchy discount clubs easy access to their customers' billing info.

We believe it is a classic consumer fraud,'' said Cuomo. Over the course of a decade Affinion, Vertue and Webroyalty have taken $1.4 billion from customers, and reports show they knew full well what they were doing. more ›

The Department of Health and Mental Hygiene Restaurant Inspection division is on a tear. The DOH shut down three Pizza Hut restaurants owned by the franschisee who owns the rat-infested KFC-Taco Bell in Greenwich Village, the restaurant that launched a thousand shocked giggles and a million more eeewww's.

From that, you can gather two things: Zach Galifianakis is a comedic genius and you should definitely see him at Irving Plaza on the 24th of February. more ›

Though New York pizza purists may scorn the chewy crust, the franchising, and that the flavors include "Hawaiian," "Greek," and "Bar-B-Cue Chicken," Singas Pizza, a 40-year old New York pizza chain with Greek origins in Elmhurst, Queens, offers a tasty product at wallet-friendly prices. Pizzas are cooked in shallow cast-iron pans, creating an oddly nostalgic Pizza Hut-like aroma, and depending on the Singas you visit, it's either take-out, sit-down, or table-service. more ›

Even though it's just a fleeting glimpse of a trenchcoat, be assured, it's Richard Belzer, a.k.a. Detective John Munch from Law & Order: Special Victims' Unit and Homicide: Life on the Streets, the most brilliant cop show of the 1990s (L&O is a cop and lawyer show) – you can take your NYPD Blue and shove it. This photograph of Mr. Belzer was taken by Adam, who tells us the actor–comedian had been at Coliseum Books in midtown. Adam is the proprietor of the illustrious Slice, where the diligent pizza blogging/tracking rivals only whatever is at Domino's or Pizza Hut headquarters. Many thanks. more ›
