OT: Best Pizza in CT

Anyone try the Amanti Della Carne at Pepe's yet? "Crushed Italian Tomatoes, Mozzarella, Meatballs, Pepperoni, Sausage, Bacon & Grated Pecorino Romano." Looks like heart attack on a pizza. ...

Yes .
I don’t want buffalina waits. But it’s on the shoreline to narrow it down.

You’re just afraid that the SuperTaster is going to go there and be underwhelmed.

I’m already leery about the meat overkill, although I gather that’s the point.

Very curious about the Taylor Ham. I’d ditch at least one of the other two meats though. Too much for one pie.

No, but have had their new-ish meatball pie a couple of times and enjoyed it. I’ok certainly give this meat party a try soon and report back.

If I was a mod, I'd delete your post. Also get a better phone camera or learn to take more appealing pics!

(Living on the Shoreline, I'm upset with you!)

He posted before eating it. He must have been underwhelmed like I expected.

nope. Thats true, because you dont know where to get it. :)

You’re right.

It is far more believable that you have suddenly decided for the first time that you are worried about creating too much hype about something you like.

He just got sucked in by the Taylor Ham. It's a NJ crutch.

It is very much like a tavern pie. Kinda hybrid like tavern thickness but a little more chew than a traditional tavern pie. I like the flat cornicione style.

yup.

Exactly. You killed it.

Dude. It’s been impossible to get near the place in peak season since as long as I’ve known about it. One of my best friends since I’ve was eight has had a family house in GLP since before we were born and I’ve been going to GLP regularly since then. The choice was always Abbot’s or Ford’s but we almost always ended up at Abbot’s because they can handle the volume and we usually had a crowd.

It wasn’t until one of my daughters had fencing matches up that way several years ago that I’ve been able to do covert missions there at off hours. And now that they take reservations that changes everything. For the good imo.

My theory is it's a troll post and he actually used a plain Tree Tavern frozen pizza, added his own toppings, then intentionally took a crap photo.

It also looks remarkably like a conveyor oven crust. But I can't believe that as no self-respecting pizza operator in CT would use one of those.

I cant wait until covid is over and they stop reservations.

I think a lot of places are not going back now that they have these systems set up. I wouldn’t be surprised if they keep it.

Ha! Well Greenwich was definitely the best team at most matches. Their kids had gear with their names on them. Our kids shared used gear.

It was and still is largely a sport for quirky-in-a-good-way kids at our high school, and it was a great and transformative experience for her. She didn't continue it in college but her coach reached out to her on a few occasions to let her know that there was interest from colleges if she wanted to fence there.

Just for fun, I've put together a montage of a dozen pizzas. The challenge is, can you identify which are from Southern CT, which are from Pittsburgh, and which are frozen? I've already given you one (your mystery pie).

Anyone else can feel free to join in.

4. Pitt
5. Frozen
6. Pitt
7. Frozen
8. Frozen
9. CT (Modern?)

#3 isn't Colony and #10 is definitely frozen with Taylor Ham and Lamberti sausage.
