OT: Best Pizza in CT

Scapes will probably be gone after this week. They are usually only around for a few weeks, and Bufalina usually changes their special pie by the week.

But definitely get the fichi from the summer menu. Figs, Gorgonzola dolce and speck. Tremendous.

Haha thought I opened the pizza thread.

Don’t knock it till you try it. It’s pizza. And closer to the pizza I had in Italy than any pizza I’ve ever had elsewhere.
 
What’s the best in the Rocky Hill/Cromwell/Middletown area? Headed back there for my nephew’s bday and I’m tired of Ilianos.

Do you guys have a best bagel thread? I know there was a place in West Hartford we went to once which was great, but it was a bit of a pain to get to.

Chief actually likes a Greek place when in that area - Westside Pizza in Rocky Hill. Old school - don’t even have a website.
Pizza.

Stick to basketball. Greek pizza sucks.

We don't have Greek pizza around around Pittsburgh, but every 10 years or so when I'm up in CT I'll stop at Hope St. Pizza in Stamford for one because some deep, dark part of me misses all that grease. Then I wonder why I did it. And I'm good for another decade.
 
I would get Greek pizza couple times year and then village pizza in Madison burnt down. Haven't had Greek pizza since. Greek pizza isn't good but it's something different
 
Had BAR pizza last night, might have been the worst pizza I’ve had from them.

I used to live on Hope st. The pizza there is a decent guilty pleasure but colony hot oil was always the go to.

Krust in Middletown is good. Thin crust, woodfired.

Greek is okay for a change or if there is no thin crust around, but nearly anything with green peppers is a non-starter. If the bell won't at least start to ripen, it's compost.

Well yeah. That's why Greek is only an every decade thing. Colony is every single trip.

I go back well before they even offered hot oil. Bobo was still kickin around back then with Fitz before Skeets came on board and they took out the shuffleboard to add more tables. Schafer in pitchers with juice glasses. When it was still a cop bar and when you stopped in at 7pm there were regulars at the end you just knew were there since 10am. IOW, I'm old.

I tried Riko's about 3 years ago. Got the runs.

Pizza:
-Mondo’s, Main St. Middletown
-Vera Cucina, Saybrook Rd. Middletown
-Michael Angelo’s, Rocky Hill

Bagels: Probably thinking of Lox Stock or maybe Isaac’s?

Ok so went to the Barrett Jackson auto auction yesterday and prior to getting to sit we wanted a beer and a bite. Thank God instead of nacho's, burgers, dogs, sausage grinders there was a Frank Pepe's for slices. The girls went to get some fruit and crap no good for you and the boys went shopping at Pepe's after grabbing a Sam's. I will say this it was better than the other selections but they do prepare their slices anything like they do a pizza at any of the Pepe locations. At Mohegan Arena it's thick and crusty, still flavored ok but too much dough to take away the sauce, cheers and pepperoni to feel like you're eating a high end pizza.

New special alert! Rhode island little neck clam pizza

garlic-parsley oil, parm, bacon

White Clam Apizza’s nothing new yet always has been special in New Haven. Luckily, it’s not overwhelmed with unnecessary bacon. Beauty’s in the taste buds of the beholder.

On the subject of pizza, AAC vs NNBE; improvement? Trade Tulsa, Witchita, bum puck East Carolina for Butler/Indy, Creighton/Omaha, Marquette/Old Swilwaukee ...

Get some facts - try it with onions and peppers - and come back and see me.

Chief, with all due respect, you just don't get it when it comes to pizza. Stick to critical basketball insight to enlighten the masses. Far more in your wheelhouse.

HM....Bar, Ernie's

20 or 30 years ago I'd of put Pepe's at 1 or 2. Loved that place back then, "The Spot" too. Had pizza at Pepe's in Danbury last week, ok decent, if not a little overpriced, but definitely not like it was years ago.
