Hot Oil Pie
Colony Grill, the Stamford, CT bar famous for its hot oil pizza, will be opening its fourth outpost in the town of Milford, at 36-38 Broad Street, in the former Harrison's Hardware store. Time frame for the opening is currently four months to a year from now. The other two Colony Grills are in Fairfield and Avon. In the Roadfood.com review of Colony, Michael Stern noted that "Colony connoisseurs frequently get what is known here as a Hot Oil pizza. Hot oil -- 'hot' meaning spicy -- is drizzled over everything and seems to bake right into the crust, giving every crunchy bite a zest that is not merely fiery, but brilliantly pepper-flavored."

I find the pizza very overrated and the restaurant in general disappointing.

I brought my parents and my Aunt to the Avon location a few weeks ago. It was their first time trying Colony and my first time at any location other than Stamford. I still love it, but they weren't impressed.

OK. Why not go to Pepe's?

If you'll be passing through once, Pepe's white clam is the way to go. Otherwise, why not try different styles and approaches? And that's coming from someone who thinks Pepe's white clam is the greatest food on earth. We like Colony's hot oil pie a lot, but we know people who are totally unimpressed.
