OT: Best Pizza in CT

[HooperScooper]

If your at that end of the shoreline it's definitely the best. By the way it's in Clinton, CT

Isn't there one in Clinton, one in Madison and one in Guilford?

Apparently you're right. Apologies to @Fairfield_1st . I've been to the Clinton location numerous times and I find their pie to be very, very good.

Went to Grand Apizza in Madison last night. Bills itself as New Haven style. It was good, but not upper tier for me. The founder worked at Modern with his brother, who owned Modern, before branching out on his own in 1955. Would go again, but would not make a special trip for it.

The founder of the original Grand Apizza, Frederick Nuzzo, was a WWII fighter pilot who started making pizza in 1948 when he started working for his brother, Nicholas, who owned Modern Apizza in New Haven. In 1955, after nearly a decade working alongside his brother, Fred opened the doors to his own Grand Apizza in Fair Haven. Fred and Rosemarie Nuzzo owned and operated the original restaurant for 50 years on Grand Avenue in Fair Haven. I was their paper boy growing up, and I played on the Grand Apizza little league team. Wish I still had that shirt! Fred's kids now run the existing Grand Apizzas out in the 'burbs.

Slim pickings for 🍕 in 🇹🇷

Best was on par with DiGorno.

Assuming that's a Turkish flag, I'm mildly surprised. I had some pretty good pizza in Bulgaria. They knew how to get crust right. We also have a Turkish-owned pizza place here that's quite popular and much better than DiGiornos.

Yes but in the Asia side it is thin pickings.

From a food truck out here on the Florida Panhandle.

Pecorino Panchetta Pecan Pizza. All the aforementioned plus Roma tomatoes, black pepper balsamic glaze and mozzarella.

I've never had a pizza with pecans on it before.

Damn good but a drizzle of maple syrup would put it in to orbit. Or, more of the balsamic glaze. Something to cut through some of the salt and richness of everyrhing else.

One too many "P's" in the toppings. I'm sure you can figure out which doesn't belong.

Try the new hideaway restaurant in old lyme
New wood fire pizza is great

Going to be driving thru NH this weekend and would like ti get a Sallys. But they always seem to have a 3-5 hr 'wait'. So doesn't work for me, so wind up at either Pepe or Modern.

What to do about Sallys? Call them 5 hrs ahead? What time do they open?

Honestly, the last 2 times I've been to Sally's have been completely underwhelming. IMO Zupp's, Roseland, Modern and NH Pepe's are all better choices, as is Zeneli's which is also on Wooster St.
