OT: Best Pizza in CT

[DennieEddy]

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.

I'm not on the panhandle, but in Venice.
Italian city....no new york or chicago pizza.

Although, Angelo's Pizza in Venice has it's roots in Angelo's Market in New Britski, on West Main.

A few years back on vacation in Venice, my son's then girlfriend ordered a clamp pizza (it was one of a few types on the menu). They served a standard tomato and cheese pie (uncut, as most pizza in served in Italy) with six clams on the half shell on the pie.

She didn't know what to do when she was served. I laughed and told her "I guess you're supposed to eat the clams first, then the pizza."

I'm curious as to why they chose Fairfield instead of Stamford for Colony.

I've been to 15 of the 30. Grigg St. in Greenwich belongs here. Some notable ommissions are Mike's in West Haven, Milestone in Thomaston, Frisco's in New Haven and Roseland in Derby.

Cool to see Brick and Basil on here in Norwich. I really enjoyed their pies the two times I got one

Holy crap. I'd have to fast for 5 days before I even thought about entering the doors. Video says Elm Street Diner in Norwalk.

Or Milford, the only one I've been to.

Uh. You mean the Milford location that opened 78 years after the original in Stamford opened? Yeah, that would make zero sense.

When we bought our first home in Easton and were underwater with house stuff and had no furniture, we ate a lot of roast chicken takeout from Vazzy's, pretty good food from an Indian place in Monroe (don't remember the name) and Art's pizza, usually eaten while surrounded by ladders and paint cans and receipts for all of the new home owner crap we had no idea we needed.

I wish I could get good pizza where I live.

Where do you live? I'm committed to the opinion that there is good pizza everywhere. You just need to know where to find it (and sometimes it's in your own oven).
