Just barely into the New Year and pie master Chris Bianco's Pizzeria Bianco has received a saucy seal of approval from Food Republic, the site for "men who want to eat and drink well, and to live smart."

Named as one of the 20 favorite pizza spots in the country, and alongside other winners like Forcella in New York City, Lou Malnati's in Chicago, and LA Market in Los Angeles, Food Republic had this to say about the Valley's most famous pizza place:
