Ain't technology grand?
FYI: I spent the afternoon at the Yale University library and got a
chance to look through their photo collection - amazing images
there,
some unbelievable historical documents. I was awed. Spent a couple
of
hours with the one of the graduate students doing some research - a
very nice young lady who tolerated an old fart with an interest in
photography.
Good time was had by all.
Too bad you are eating...I'd recommend Pepe's on Wooster Street.

Pepe's Pizza is terrible. The pizza tastes of soot, and is bland
beyond
belief.
Check out this video made from inside Pepe's and decide for yourself-
http://vimeo.com/1726324
This is one of the few times I'll agree with Harry. If you like thin
crust
pizza, Pepe's is the best on the planet. Followed closely by Sally's
down
the street. That video made me hungry for Pepe's and I'm 2600 miles
away!
The folks in the video must be Round Table Pizza fans...

I think Sally's shut down....- Hide quoted text -

Ooooops, scratch that... Still there...
Scared me there for a minute. When I lived there, I'd just go to Sally's if
Pepe's *(or "The spot"... same thing next door), was too busy.
Another of my favs was Bimonte's in Hamden. I know Joe died a few years ago,
but I think his place lives on. There's another Bimonte's in Cheshire, but
it's not the same.

Sorry, one of the big pizza places went out or retired recently, don't
remember which one.. Really though, we like Centerbrook Pizza which is
just outside Essex if we buy pizza, but the best pizza in the state by
far is Mrs. Justwaits deep dish from scratch.. I love it when we make
pizza at home, never had anythig better and I have had pizza all over
this country...
I'm a snob about pizza - I like New York style thin crust three cheese
pizza.
No toppings or if I have to, mushrooms.
