The truest New Haven style pizza that’s available by the slice, Est Est Est serves you an eighth of a large pie for only two ducats. This shop stands on the corner of Chapel and Park Streets, a stone’s throw from the Yale Art building. I was fortunate to arrive early when an unadorned cheese pie just came out of the gas-fired oven, and I ordered two slices: one with pepperoni, and the other with hot cherry peppers, and both were served in a small pizza box. Both were rigid enough to lift without droopage, and the chewy end-crust was a welcomed finale to a wonderful lunch. New Haven has its apizza triumvirate (a quadrumvirate if you count BAR on Crown Street) long cinched, but for those who don’t have enough time to indulge in a whole pizza, Est Est Est delivers the New Haven style pie quite admirably.
