I hope there aren't 4 hour waits any more. How long was it from the order to when it was ready?

That almost looks overcooked and I'm such a fan of the char I tell my local place to burn it and they know what to do.

The taste test result: perfect. Better than yesterday’s above..
What was the taste test; did you go to different places?

It does look better than the pizza in the other picture. Where are they from?

Yeah, as close to overcooked as it gets without being so. They love toeing that line around here lol got fuoco again last night because I’m moving to Boston Monday and idk when I’ll get it again; looked just like the above.

Any guess? It’s a big name classic.

Called ahead. Waited 5 minutes and ate there. Wasn’t all that impressed. Loved the place. Real nice people. Just didn’t think it was great. Tastes better at room temp after I got to my destination. Going to Olde World on the way home tomorrow.

That box kinda looks like it could be modern
I remember Pepe having a more traditional, thick cardboard type of box but could be wrong

It certainly isn’t from The Liittle Rendezvous.
My guess is Modern, too.

Olde World is very bare bones as a dining spot, but it's been consistently delicious for years. It's good eating at every cool down temperature if you're taking it in the car, and reheats well.
I can't think of a better "on the way home" pie, if your route includes the Wilbur Cross.

Looks like a Colony pie someone left out in the rain.

I'd need a towel for that one... Wow.

It was different, but I’m not going to lie - I liked it. It’s Sparrow Pizza Bar. The Sparrow thing is “drips and drizzles”. It blows up the comparison to others, but why not try it the way they recommend it, it’s their thing.
So what did they drip on the pizza? Truffle oil? No, a hot honey sauce.
Definitely different. Not purist, but I did enjoy it with a beer. I’d do it again. Crust was good.
