Adam Kuban at Slice took this cute photo yesterday of pizza artisan Dom DeMarco plying his trade at legendary Midwood pizza destination Di Fara. We're sharing it as a reminder that, to paraphrase Zooey Glass, there are still nice things in this world of death panels and Espadas.

Sachs, featured a little infinity mirror effect by including the same portrait hanging on the wall in the painting. Woah. Oh, and if we had some hot five dollar slices right now.
