Sunday: The Shelton Jaycees, a local non-profit community group, held their Annual Best Pizza in Shelton Open-house. The event was held at Pinerock Firehouse in Shelton. Almost thirty people helped choose the Best Sausage, Best Pepperoni, Best Vegetable, Best Cheese and Best Overall Pizzas. Ten local pizza establishments each donated and delivered a pie for each category. They were delivered in identical generic pizza boxes to hide the identity of the restaurant. Participants tasted small pieces of each pie and voted for the letter code assigned by a non-judge. The voting was very close in each of the categories. The Best Sausage Pizza winner was Basil’s Pizza – (203) 926-6848 located at 725 Bridgeport Ave. The Best Vegetable Pizza winner was Lia’s Pizza – (203) 924-7009 located at 425 River Road.
