Where we at?

The famous Fanelli, fam. The vibe here is very chill right now, but sometimes it gets chaotic. Fashion-wise there’s a lot of stores nearby, so it’s a good place for people to come and show off their style. 

What do you order here?

We get that spaghetti and meatballs. We got to make sure you get that sugar. And the OJ, no Simpson. 

Who comes here?

You see a lot of VIPs here. I actually shot a film with Brent Faiyaz right here on this table. You could see anybody walking these SoHo streets, period. It’s a good people-watching spot.

Where are we at?

We’re in a very iconic location. Right there on those stairs is where I shot one of my first viral videos of Lil Uzi Vert. That day was very special. And in back of you is where I used to work, Maison Margiela. I used to spend all of my time trying to get out of here, like, “One day I’m going to be working for myself.” You know?

Who comes here usually?

Who don’t? I love fashion, and you get a lot of good VIPs. It’s a place where I had a lot of people meet me to do my street-style interviews as well.

Rick or Margiela?

Come on, stop it … Margiela.

What do you get here?

Some days I love the margherita slice, or a Sicilian. It depends on the mood.

What’s the vibe of the people here?

You get some cool locals, you get some big tourists that’s in the area. It feels kind of homey for them as well, because it’s like everybody here has good vibe, good energy, and it’s very, very welcoming. It’s pretty much our neighborhood store.

Do you fuck with eating the crust?

That’s the best part of the pizza. You know what I’m saying? If you ain’t eating the crust, you’re at the wrong spot.
