STATEN ISLAND — Dough!
Mayor Bill de Blasio stopped at a local Staten Island pizzeria for a quick bite on Friday — and caused a stir when he whipped out a knife and fork to dig into the pie.
The Cambridge, Mass.-raised mayor was visiting Staten Island as part of a campaign promise to reach out to all five boroughs when he went to scarf down a pie at one of former Mayor Rudy Giuliani's favorite spots, Goodfella's Pizzeria, at 1718 Hylan Blvd.
The culinary faux pas immediately caused a backlash, as people took to Twitter to vent their frustration with the new mayor.
"GROSS. What an abomination," tweeted @placovara.
"De Blasio eats pizza with a fork? You disappoint me son," said Twitter user @TatteredFedora.
