The Best Pizzerias in the World
| September 5, 2018
Frank Pepe Pizzeria Napoletana – New Haven, CT
When he first came to America, Italian Frank Pepe made his own pizzas and sold them on the street. These first pies helped to define New Haven-style pizza, and soon Frank Pepe Pizzeria Napoletana, Pepe’s original shop, expanded to an empire of eight separate pizzerias owned and operated by his family.
Frank Pepe’s most famous pie is the white clam pizza, which is made with dozens of littleneck clams scattered over a round of dough that’s covered in olive oil, Pecorino-Romano, and minced garlic. The dough itself is a family secret and is only known about 20 or 30 people.
