OT: Best Pizza in CT

[karstenkibbe]

I am speechless. Cannot believe I no longer have to get on 95 and endure brutal traffic for my apizza fix. I literally could not tell the difference between the Wooster Street and the Summer Street pie. My go-to plain sauce pie is an exact replica. Mootz was great, but I’ve always enjoyed the plain sauce pie more. Had to order at 7am this morning to snag the last pickup time slot between 5-9pm tonight.

Had Magia in North Haven yesterday for the first time and was very impressed. Right there with anyplace in CT. A hidden gem.

I would disagree. It's pretty good but not on par with any of the top tier imo. Also felt the place was a little bit dirty.

Disagree all you like, a lot of this is subjective. But theyir plain sauce pie was simply amazing and certainly better than Sally's which people often tout for that exact pie.

Objectively, or subjectively?

Not in Ct. but I had Italian Store in Arlington last night. They are so generous with their cheese which is great flavored too. That’s make or break and where so many places fail, scrimping on the cheese. Wish we had one in Ct.

has anyone been to the new Sally's in Stamford yet?

Gotta say, I don't think I've ever had a pizza where I felt they scrimped on the cheese; at Modern I usually request light mozz because I find them a touch heavy, which can result in too much flop.

Yeah because pizza grows on trees different in CT

So nobody from SD can hype a single taco spot outside SoCal I guess?

And a definite request at Ernie's

Have not been, but I do like the look of the photos online. Sourdough crust -- so Da Legna is a good approximate in New Haven.

Currently at Molto in Fairfield pizza rocks

I almost always order light cheese and well done, not necessary at Sally's.

I'll need to spend the day in Mystic, morning or lunch at Sift followed by Nana's.

What Goes Best With A Pastrami Sandwich?

Pastrami can be used in a number of ways. However, the most popular way of using pastrami slices is making delicious sandwiches. But what goes best inside a pastrami sandwich?

Can You Put Mayo on Pastrami?​

Mayonnaise is one of the most used condiments in pastrami sandwiches. It may be spread on the slices of bread to bring an additional layer of taste as well as to hold the fillings of the sandwich together.

When putting mayonnaise in your pastrami sandwich, keep in mind that it can make the bread soggy.To avoid this problem, you can toast the bread a little bit before coating it with mayonnaise.

When putting mayonnaise on pastrami, make sure it is not a store-bought condiment that will deteriorate the quality of the sandwich and make it taste ‘cheap’. Buy either a good-quality mayonnaise or make some yourself.

This is a good quality Mayonnaise. I use the Lemon Aioli on my fish and it tastes a lot better than tartar sauce.
I rarely eat pastrami, but I would think any one of the 3 items would be good on the sandwich.

I've never given a second's thought about putting mayo on a pastrami sandwich until just now. I wouldn't do it, but I'll go out on a limb and suggest it might be better than honey mustard. Honey mustard has fewer uses than even ketchup. Meaning none.

I’m having a hard time comprehending this. These can’t be options for human beings.

Zuppardi's frozen pies are pretty tasty. The Breville cooks them up nicely. I have not had a fresh one, tho.
