What happened after Best Thing I Ever Ate?
"Best Thing I Ever Ate" (S8E3, "Life Changers") featured Frank Pepe Pizzeria Napoletana, the coal-fired pizzeria at 157 Wooster Street in New Haven's Wooster Square neighborhood, founded in 1925 and known for its blistered, thin-crust tomato pies. According to the restaurant's own ordering website, pepespizzeria.com, the New Haven store page displayed a live "Open until 10:00pm" status message and a functioning online ordering cart listing current specialty pies, salads, sodas and desserts, checked 2026-09-08. The site also offered a downloadable current menu PDF, a rewards sign-up, and pages for private parties at its New Haven, Yonkers and West Hartford locations. The footer copyright line on the page read "2022," but the live order system and same-day hours indicator reflected activity at the time of the check.
