From the moment you step into Moon Rocks Gourmet Cookies, you're not just a customer; you become part of a family that prioritizes quality and unparalleled taste. It's evident in every bite that they do not skimp on ingredients. Their unwavering commitment to creating the best product is not just a claim but a delightful reality. One of the charms of Moon Rocks is its proximity to Eli's Brick Oven, just a stone's throw away. It has become a ritual for me to stop by and pick up a selection of their heavenly cookies before heading over to Eli's. This little journey adds a sweet note to my day, every time. The heart of Moon Rocks lies not just in its cookies but also in its people. Trish, with her ever-welcoming smile, makes every visit special. Her kindness and attention to detail reflect the ethos of Moon Rocks – exceptional service and a warm, inviting atmosphere. Another aspect that stands out is their presence at local food truck festivals. Seeing Marni there throughout the summer is always a treat.

And when it comes to corporate or personal gifting, their Corporate & Custom Branded Gift Baskets are a game-changer. These baskets are not just gifts; they are gestures of elegance, taste, and thoughtfulness, making them perfect for the holiday season or any special occasion.

As a kid, my grandmother used to drag us all the way from Fairfield just to get a taste of Zuppardi's famous sausage Apizza. We would wait for hours in line, but it was always worth it. And nothing has changed since then, except for the addition of the Apizza Truck. Zuppardi's still owns the street and continues to serve the best pizza west of New Haven. In my own opinion, it's even better than the other top 3 pizzerias that always get mentioned. The thin-crust pizza, baked in a coal-fired oven with fresh ingredients and family recipes, is simply delicious. And my personal favorite, the Fresh Clam pizza, is a must-try. Zuppardi's take on this New Haven classic is second to none. It's a white pizza prepared with shucked-to-order littleneck clams baked on fresh dough with a mixture of garlic and spices. It's widely considered one of the best clam pizzas in the country. If you're a fan of seafood, make sure to ask to add mozzarella for an extra creamy touch. Zuppardi's Apizza is a true gem that has remained a beloved neighborhood spot for generations, and it's not hard to see why. If you haven't tried it yet, you're missing out!
