When food is at it’s best, especially in the case of pizza where there are simple benchmarks, it is simply really well-made. The pizza at Bianco is really well-made. It is the best properly-made pizza that I have ever had. The preparation and ingredients create really tasty pizzas with perfectly-executed crusts.
I wanted something sweet from the sauce and milky from the cheese, the crust to be crackery on the outside but soft on the inside. For the color to be right golden brown verging on burnt. None of these are special things for a pizza to be; they are only what a pizza should be. Bianco’s execution is text-book perfection, but that sounds too antiseptic because these pizzas do have soul in them. It is with the text-book perfection that something special comes out. (In terms of video games, once Link had 100% life, he not only was perfectly healthy, but he also had a magical power of being able to shoot sword beams).
This is a simply terrific analogy.
