OT: Best Pizza in CT

[storrsroars]

I'm confused. Is it Italian apizza or Greek pizza?

There no such thing as Italian Greek pizza

Clearly Greek - not sure what the confusion is.

What is a Connecticut or New England Style Pizza (Also referred to as "Greek Pizza")? It is a thin pan Pizza with a slightly rounded crust. Our Pizzas are baked to a perfectly golden brown color with a crispy crust and bottom.

I went back to modern for the first time in a while and it was better than I remembered and I always thought they were one of the best.

Now my top three are:
1. Bufalina
2. Modern Apizza in New Haven, Connecticut since 1934 and
3. BAR New Haven | Pizza, Beer, and Dancing

Just tried Rocco's in Guilford last night. Got one pie, the Shoreline (gorgonzola, bacon other stuff) Excellent.
They were a bit overwhelmed on a Friday night. Growing pains. On-line ordering did not work, people on hold.
I will definitely be back to try more traditional pies.

They are good; I like Grand Apizza and Amato’s (new place next to Klein’s, where New Haven Apizza used to be) better.

In Guilford? I’ll have to give it a try. Only 5 minutes away. Thanks

I just hired Colon Caplan for an architectural history project. Good guy.

Show me what you got. I say it’s Dr. Oetker’s Virtuoso pepperoni and it’s not even close.

I'll buy a Newman's Own pizza when it's on sale for $1

The best are Costco

 

[storrsroars]

Do they still make Tree Tavern? If so, there's your winner.

EDIT: Why yes they do, even though I can't get them in Pgh. Found this ranking of frozen pizzas on NJ.com. Tree Tavern is 9th of 37. Dr. Oetker is 7th. I've only had the Dr. pizza once and my memory of Tree Tavern would still put it ahead of the good doctor's pie.

That Amnon's kosher pizza at 14 actually looks pretty tasty compared to the rest of 'em. But I have to wonder about a review that would put Ellio's at 11.

Yep Costco 2nd vote.

Was there a Royal branded frozen pizza way back on the day like 70s? I liked them as a kid.

 

[Robertelamin]

Nothing like a frozen Mama Obese’s Tripple Meat Layer Apizza.

When I was a kid, my grandmother would always make us Tony’s pizza and my grandfather would force us to eat purple cabbage. What I remember most is that when she cooked the pizza, the whole kitchen would fill with the smell of gas.

Even today I associate round frozen pizza (not Ellio’s!) with the smell of gas. It’s weird but it’s a comforting memory.

Stouffers french bread was my go to forever. Micro-bake style. 7 minute turn.

Ellios are low-key decent

American Flatbread and Newman’s own are banging

If I gotta buy frozen pizza it’s always this

You should pay royalties to CTbasketball for
This thread. I’m sure you’ll here from his lawyer.

 

[Devland]

With a pizza thread, a bagel thread, now a frozen pizza thread. Could a frozen pizza bagel thread be far off?

I like Newman's own, especially for how cheap it is, but they are tricky to cook. 30 seconds too long and the cheese hardens almost instantly.
