"Outside of the deli, Portnoy reminded Maye of the "one bite" rule as he proceeded to take several bites of his pizza before giving his score. But Maye followed the rules, taking one bite of the cheese slice before landing on an 8.1 - a high score in Portnoy's very subjective system of scoring pizzas. "In my scale, an 8.1 means you drive an hour to eat it," Portnoy said to Maye,"
"She offered Maye and Portnoy free drinks from a soda cooler and made them a toasted chicken parm sub, which they also reviewed as "good." "I love that lady," Portnoy said. "Is it the best chicken parm I've had? No, but it's very good. It's a great neighborhood sandwich and pizza shop," Portnoy said. Maye agreed. And in that moment, the owner could once again be seen filming Portnoy and May from inside her shop."
Dave Portnoy invited Ann Michael Maye to join a One Bite review of Gianni's Deli and Pizza's cheese slice ahead of a Patriots playoff game. Portnoy took multiple bites before scoring, while Maye adhered to the one-bite rule and gave the slice an 8.1. Portnoy said an 8.1 means you would drive an hour to eat it and awarded the restaurant's pie a 7.7, praising the taste despite calling the pizza slightly sloppy. The deli owner warmly hosted them, filmed the crew, offered free drinks, and prepared a toasted chicken parm sub the pair called very good.
