Last night..... Meat Lovers Pizza... Mozzarella and Parmiagiano Cheeses.... Pepperoni, Sausage, Italian Bacon, Hamburger, and EXTRA Oregano.... (i told him to leave off the ham.. not a huge fan of ham on pizza)..... made by an Italian Immigrant ....
 
Just came across this 101 Best Pizzas in America for 2018...better late than never, as the month is almost over. CT seems to be well represented with 9 pizzerias with Frank Pepe's taking the #1 spot with their 'White Clam Pie".

If nothing else, this article perhaps gives you a chance to visit and try some of these pizzas. Enjoy!

Nice. Monday evening, Enzo's again: half bacon, half pepperoni, lighter cheese. Excellent
Enzo's is the family fave in Montclair, NJ, located 12 miles west from NYC.
 
2019 bump. Sitting here in a franchise pizza joint waiting on my two pizzas...... I normally don't do the chains.. But I had a buy one get one free coupon to use. Perhaps we could do a preseason top 10 pizzas... Or a preseason top five pizza restaurants.:p
 
In Kew Gardens, Queens, NY-- Dani's House of Pizza In Foothill Ranch(Orange County CA) Sals Pizzeria. I grew up in NY, there is no such thing as "chain" pizza. I dont care if they gave you 10 for the price of 1.

I've had many a pizza, and I have 2 favorites: Bianchi's on Revere Beach, and Pizzaria Regina in Boston.

Growing up in West Haven, CT, to me Zuppardi's Apizza (#46 on list) is one of the best. So many places in New Haven County that offer up "New Haven style Apizza"...more times than not you'll hit a good one.

The CT Pizza places on list include;

#1 Frank Pepe's Pizzeria, Wooster St, New Haven, CT
#7 Sally's Apizza, Wooster St, New Haven, CT
#20 Modern Apizza, New Haven, CT
#44 Colony Grill, Stamford, CT (no not that Stanford)
#46 Zuppardi's Apizza, West Haven, CT
#51 Roseland Apizza, Derby, CT ( I should trek to Derby to try this one)

I wouldn't say that the Baltimore area is a hotbed for pizza. I do, however, like the pizza from a place called Pasta Mista. They have a wide variety and sell by the slice.

Though it might not technically fit the definition of pizza, I am partial to their "Chicken Caesar" pizza. Think of caesar dressing instead of tomato sauce and you get the idea.

One street has 2 of the top 7. Again, why go anywhere else?

And for those readers who aren't from Connecticut, yes, in Connecticut we do little other than watch UConn and eat pizza (along with lobster rolls in the Summer).
 
I'm going to Chicago tomorrow and hope to stop at Lou Malnati's.

After that, I'll be watching my granddaughter's soccer game. She's the leading scorer on her Division III team as a freshman. She appears to have found her niche.

Thanks. I was gonna make a thread about National Taco Day, but I didnt want to make it seem that I had an obsession with food. :oops:

I should have waited on that pizza.... Could have just gotten a Taco Pizza today and killed two birds with one stone. Maybe next year.

Apologies for being late :oops: ..... but October is National Pizza Month :) Still three more weeks left to celebrate.

I celebrated Friday Night with two pizzas (both mediums cause Im cutting) a thin crust Asian Chicken Pizza..... with Asian Sauce, grilled chicken, red onions, green peppers, and sesame seeds. And one with Pepperoni, ham, italian sausage, ground beef, mushrooms, red onions, and green peppers (told them no olives) .... with a garlic crust. I dont normally go to chain pizza places, but I had a coupon for Hungry Howies.

Go out and celebrate... support your local neighborhood pizza place :cool: You can diet and exercise in November :D

I stuck my toe in the water. I purchased a large 3 topping pizza and 12 lemon-pepper flavored wings from Pizza Hut. It went fast. Both containers were emptied in less than 60 seconds. The grandkids were here, and hungry for pizza. I was very lucky to get a slice. I should have purchased 2 pizzas. I’ll know better next time. :eek:

I AM APPALLED BY THIS THREAD.

It should be National Pizza Quarter.
 
Are there days of this month designated for specific toppings?
 
Looks like we just missed the celebration of Rocky Mountain Oysters on Oct 5th. :eek:

Since we are stats oriented folks, wanted to share this link as to why one should always order the large pizza.

Most places around here go by the 12, 14, 16 small, medium, large. There are places to get a 18 inch extra large.. but its not as common. Lately Ive been going the medium route...... depending on how many toppings I get. I'll get a 16" if its just pepperoni.... but when I load it down with toppings... usually get the medium.

Define alot :p




Had no idea what a Goose 312 was..... so I googled it. Not much of a beer drinker. last time I had a beer was Super Bowl Sunday in 2014. (Darn you Patriots Head bang ) The problem with buying a six pack of beer... is that at my rate of consumption.... it would probably take about 70 years to finish the pack.... and I dont have 70 years left on this earth. :oops: Though I did hear on a radio show about some kinda Chocolate Beer that sounds intriguing :eek:


Back to pizza.... I found out the hard way about being careful about attacking a freshly made deep dish pizza :oops: Those pizza burns are the worst

I heard that Yuengling is brewing a porter stlye beer in a cooperative endeavor with Hershey's chocolate . It is only available as draft beer for a short time in the area. When I was working in Pennsylvania near Pittsburgh a few years back, I found Great Lakes Brewing made Edmund Fitzgerald porter that has a very slight hint of chocolate. I like porter , and I love the Edmund Fitzgerald. Unfortunately , it is not sold here in Alabama. So I beg anyone going to Ohio or Pennsylvania from the Birmingham , Al area to bring some back with them. I do not drink much , but I am almost out and hoping a friend or family member can fix me up soon.
 
Was looking around some local pizza places around town and found this. Anyone who knows me knows of my love for mediterrean food...... Now I know I could eat a large one of these.... my goodness.

Be careful, friend. People are unusually protective of their pizza topping selections. You just might start another civil war. ;)

You got me thinking and looking. I remember a chocolate beer being talked about on the radio or somewhere.... came across this beer created locally. A cocoa infused Imperial Stout.

Sexual Chocolate - Foothills Brewing

Find out... they sell it in stores here in town...... might have to check it out and stock up in case DWBB has a season like last year :oops:

Would hope they have it already on the shelves. With that name.... its not something I would feel comfortable asking a store worker for. "Excuse me maam...... do you happen to have any Sexual Chocolate?" Liable to mess around and end up in handcuffs and in front of a judge :eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:
