I've had Little City crush it a few times.Anyone had good pizza in Avon area?
And don’t say Naples in Farmington. Way overrated.

WeHa is close enough to Avon to just take the extra time. It might not be New Haven, but its probably the second best pizza town in CT.We go to E&D in Avon, but for sandwiches and stuff, not pizzas. Harry's Bishops Corner is just on the other side of Avon Mountain Road. South of there is Pepe's in the SE corner of WeHa on New Britain Avenue. Those 3 and Naples are our local take-out places.
Here are the details. It's pretty much cheese...mostly. I don't mind Imo's, but it's not anything but food for drunk hungry college kids, like Little Ceasars. It falls below the hand tossed Pizza Hut bar as a pie.From what I've been told they start with American cheese (which, is not cheese but a processed cheese product), season it and add (unstated) other items to give it a flavor that somewhat resembles provolone (that's where the name comes from).
It's little more than bait for a mouse trap.

Pizza bro kinda panned olde world. I like your review betterHad Olde World with a fellow Boneyarder on Friday. Superb as always. Thinking Roseland, Modern and Olde World are my Top 3 at this point.
He harped on the flop. The flop has no bearing on the flavor, which is always spot on.Pizza bro kinda panned olde world. I like your review better
I hope he keeps panning it… he turned Little Rendezvous in Meriden into a crap show for long time regulars. Would hate for the same fate for Olde World.Pizza bro kinda panned olde world. I like your review better
The only two things I dislike about Olde World are the hours (only lunchtime hours are on Friday) and the fact that it’s not at eat-in joint - although I’m usually looking to take a pie to Twelve Percent Beer Project anyway. I consider it the most underrated, under-hyped pizza in the state.I hope he keeps panning it… he turned Little Rendezvous in Meriden into a crap show for long time regulars.

Pizzerias navigate buzz, backlash around Dave Portnoy’s pizza festival
Some don’t agree with the Barstool Sports founder’s statements, but they like what he does for business...
I've never liked him but shining a light on people who smear and try to destroy others they don't like under the guise of journalism is always a good thing.meh. He's jumped the shark. I dont care if he loves CT Pizza or not. This guy is nuts. And not in a good way (despite he wants you to believe). And BTW his Pizza fest was a scam fest extraordinaire.
I don't disagree with that at all. But I don't think it is that cut and dry any longer with him. But some media absolutely tees it up for him, no doubt. He actually is more shrewd that way than any other.I've never liked him but shining a light on people who smear and try to destroy others they don't like under the guise of journalism is always a good thing.
I have no idea who J. Kenji Alt is. Looked him up, apparently J. Kenji Alt and Portnoy hate each other and have had a running feud for a while.I don't disagree with that at all.

Why was he calling out Kenji at Pizza fest along with WaPo? Thin skin? He reminds me of someone. Thats all Ill say on this board.
Kenji is pretty much the last word on doing food right. Portnoy is the last word on being Tuckers Chad bro. Do the math.I have no idea who J. Kenji Alt is. Looked him up, apparently J. Kenji Alt and Portnoy hate each other and have had a running feud for a while.
Just reading up on J. Kenji for the first time and he also seems like a tool. Social media meltdowns and threatening to ban certain people from his restaurant. He may be a good cook but so are tons of other people, it doesn't exempt him from being a tool. Portnoy is a cash cow, it doesn't exempt him from being a tool.Kenji is pretty much the last word on doing food right. Portnoy is the last word on being Tuckers Chad bro. Do the math.

He certainly isn't the last word on doing food right, lolz.
