This is the Wooster Street pizzeria that made New Haven argue about whether "apizza" is a word, and the pies still come out of a coal-fired oven with a charred, smoky bottom and a crust that stays rigid when you lift a slice. The white clam pie is the famous one, briny and heavy on garlic. Plan on a line down the block, eaten at plain tables, with no one in sight fussing over a wine list.

Original tomato pie
“Pepe’s invented the slightly sweet original tomato pie and the salty, garlicky white clam pie, and all it takes is a bite of either to understand why there’s always a line down the block.”
