OT: Best Pizza in CT

[pnow15]

A few years back I used to come from day trip via train on Wednesday from NY. Could get in to Sal's with virtually no wait around nine just before closing. Would order one there and one for the road. May still be that way.

Hit a place in Brookfield yesterday for a couple of slices with my brother. The place is called Pizzeria Bello and they have some interesting creations. The slice with priscutto and ricotta was outstanding. Definite repeat stop when I am down that way. I'm no 8893, but I know a great pie when I taste one.

Marco's in Branford has a very thin crust.

Following @Fishy 's mandate. I can now confirm that David is spot on here. Solid New Haven style pie with an impressively thin crust. I think BAR is the only thinner crust I've had, and Marco's is considerably sturdier.

I had a lunch meeting in Bronxville yesterday and the group I was meeting with somehow got around to the topic of New Haven pizza.

Listening to them butcher the conversation, I realized that this thread has taught me much more about pizza in Connecticut than I will ever, ever need to know.

Just curious. Has anyone tried Blaze Pizza in Storrs Center? I haven't tried it I just read about. It appears to be the Subway of pizza shops. They cook it in less than three minutes. I am not really a big pizza eater and if I do have it I prefer the sicilian style which has a thicker crust or the Brussels Pizza at Krust in Middletown (Anything tastes good with brussel sprouts and a glass of bourbon). This doesn't appeal to me. It seems like the crust would come out like a salteen cracker.

Its actually very decent. But the noob need to get down southern CT way before he can make that pronouncement.

At some point, I need to talk to my friend at Krust and get him to make us a round of Spookers, right?

Should I ask what a spooker is? Anyway Krust is high on my list of places to try soon.

I think the guy is allowed to have his own favorites.

Didn't he say it was his favorite in the area? I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt (Surprise, Surprise.), and assume area is defined as somewhere between home and work.

Not to be cryptic but the spooker is the Pizza equivalent of the jack-a-lope

Absolutely not. He is to be spoonfed his opinion from the boneyard or face the wrath.

Agree. That was a nonsensical statement, unworthy of a boneyarder.

For personal sized pizzas: Colony Grille in Fairfield or Arthur's Famous in Bridgeport

In that case, he's wrong. Mulberry is fine, but I don't think it's even the best pie in Manchester.

Everyone in America has a spot to buy a pie/slice today no excuses: Linky

I contributed to NPD by having Zerio's in Cromwell. Not worthy of "best" designation, but it's certainly good. Very saucy; which I happen to like.

you know what I notice is missing from that list there? Greek Pizza places. I wonder why? I think we need to go back through this thread and scrub all references to Greek pizza. And if I had admin rights (and you all are glad I dont. I would ban everyone but Chief) I would also scrub their accounts from ever being eligible to post in any Yard Pizza discussions heretofore.
