You can definitely spend $40 on pizza in NYC, once you add some toppings, delivery fees, and a tip. For me, ordering pizza is a "special treat" because it's so expensive.

You could make pizza at home from scratch for only a few dollars, and it would be even fresher than anything delivered.

Nobody is surprised by the fact that cooking at home is cheaper than ordering food. I don't know why you think you need to point it out.

Oh I do. The point of ordering food is that you have been working on something for 20 hours and do not feel like cooking.

At least one "Gourmet" pizza place I know of (Ann Arbor, MI) has a load of $46 to $54 pizzas on their menu.

It's not bad pizza...but when I could have a 14oz. NY strip and drink at a very classy old local restaurant for less? "Sorry, not interested."
