Maybe you’re not into clams but they have by far the best white clam anywhere.
I’m with you
I’ll 2nd that.
If you go by what I've seen on the food channels (a couple times with different shows) Zuppardis make their sausage in the restaurant and instead of stuffing sausage casings, they put it on the pies.
Just like brick wood fired or coal fired ovens, steel pizza ovens get better with age as the masonry inserts age. The thing with Zuppardis ovens is they are quite old, I think they date to the late 1940’s, but what I’m not sure of is are they electric or gas. I could be wrong but I think they are gas.
Just recently had clams so wanted to try some other options but have heard great things about their white clam pizza.
Good to see you have finally found something better than everything at Arby's.
I had Arby's that trip the day before it was better than the pizza. Nice try though
Yellow tomatoes, asymmetrically proportioned.
Roseland is terrific. Hope you got out of that area before the rains came. Flooding looked pretty bad up that way.
In my opinion the best Pizza somewhat near Storrs is Mulberry St Pizza in Manchester. Yes, it's a 25-30 minute drive from campus but it's worth it. It's actually shocking to me that there isn't a really good Pizza joint closer to Storrs....
Welcome back to CT Hans. Hope you're enjoying your stay here. Little Rendezvous in Meriden is just a hidden gem. I love their pizza (excellent). I think you may have been there since it's been there for ages. I would recommend that as the 1st option. No frills inside, just some tables to sit and enjoy the pizza. Some of the newer ones are Mondo in Middletown ( very good) and Zephyers in West Hartford (very good). Hope this helps in your decision process.
I'm still recommending Pizza Garden in Hartford's West End - they continue to put out great pizza across their three styles and have added other menu items equally as good. Every bit as good or better than Zephyr or Savoy in West Hartford.
Hard for me to believe any white clam pie is better than Pepe's (pic is W. Hartford last week). Gotta try Zups!
Hard to really complain about either. When I ate Zupp's clam pizza, I was driving home thinking "Wow. What was THAT?" For me though, it's 1a/1aa. God bless NH abeetz.
That’s my feeling about it too. They are just different enough that you can celebrate both without feeling like you short selling one.
