Dear Slice: Ever Hear of Colony Pizza?

Dear Slice

I'm a pizza fan, Brooklynite, and avid reader of Slice. I was wondering if you'd ever heard of the Colony in Stamford, Connecticut? My family has a long history with the Colony's pizza, and we're big fans. It's really thin — almost like a cracker — and very delicious.

Anyway, we're making our annual pre-Easter trek to the Colony in a couple of days, and I'm thinking about putting a review of sorts on my blog. IF, that is, I decide to spread the word . . . It's already crowded enough!

The Skinny: According to Laura, proprietor of head-rush.com, "It's officially called Colony Grill. It's in Stamford, CT. They only serve pizza and drinks. No salad. No bread. Get over it. Yes the pizza is AMAZING. Thin crust LIke Pepe's and Sally's in New Haven only better. Less lines. No Ivy League snobbery with which you must contend."

As an Ivy League alum, I must write to complain about this anti-Ivy prejudice. I wonder if Slice would use such blatant language againt any other group. I think not.

The privileged have feelings too.

The quote was from someone else, though I will take responsibility for publishing it on Slice. That said, I doubt such so-called blatant language stings you all that much.

Colony is very close to my office & we love to order from there. They do a pizza with Hot Oil - So delicious. Not a fancy place - straight up pizza with your typical topings for the most part. But - it doesn't need to be fancy to be good!
