One of the early ovens used to make pizza in New Haven is pictured here around 1930 at 159 Wooster Street with Carmelo Midolo “the singing baker” along with his son Sebastian making St Joseph crown loafs. Midolo hailed from Siracusa Sicilia taking over the bakery shortly before this photo was taken.

This old bakery was located down an alley in the rear lot sandwiched between present day Frank Pepe Pizzeria & The Spot. This was a massive coal fired oven was similar to what was built at The Spot and was first known to be used to make bread and pizza by Giuseppe Sarno in 1923. It was town down in the 1960s and is presently a parking lot. Sarno and his family continued making pizza and bread across the street until the early 1960s.

New Haven is the Pizza Capital of the United States, we’ve always been and now EVERYONE knows! I led the trip down to the US Capitol on May 22, 2024 with 105 pizza makers, community members, politicians and veterans to meet Rosa DeLauro who read the Congressional Record Statement in the Halls of Congress and made this a permanent record in the Library of Congress! To all the naysayers, haters, jealous minds and the NYC, NJ & CHI s**t talkers: keep drinking your own Kool-Aid and fighting over the crumbs because New Haven is in its own league. But really and truly, come visit and taste why people come from all over the world to try our pizza, and make it our way all over the world!🍕🏆🏛️

A pizzeria fit for veterans, opened by a veteran: Giuseppe “Joseph” LoGioco, born in San Mauro Castelverde Sicily and fought for the US in WWI, opened the Veterans Restaurant in 1934 in New London where Apizza was served. He hired Francesco “Frank” Caro from New Haven to run it at first. In 1947, Joseph moved to Tampa FL where he was a charter member of the VFW 189. We salute all veterans for their work on and off the battlefield.
