    White Clam Pizza never sounds disgusting. It's delicious.

    Something that ,I think, is unique to CT, but if the rest of the country ever tried would go crazy for is Hummel hot dogs. They are made in New Haven (Hummel Brothers) and if you’ve lived in CT and eaten at any hamburger/hot dog stand you’ve eaten them. They’re great!

    A Connecticut lobster roll is always hot and buttered. A frappe is more Boston. A milkshake in Connecticut always has ice cream

    Sea food is the best! I love oysters, clams, hot lobster rolls, soft shell crabs, corn crab chowder at Jimmy's. Apple cider and Birch Beer soda are popular. Check out the Griswald Inn in Essex. Great place and town where you can shop in quaint little stores and walk to the water to see the boats and sometimes fish jumping.

    You should try Foxon Park soda, especially the birch beer, and also especially if you have pizza.

    You can't talk about New Haven pizza without mentioning Modern Apizza, it's probably the 1 preferred by the locals. A Connecticut lobster roll is warm with butter, the good ones the lobster is in the butter with perhaps some other spices and seasoning.

      @Ryan713 2 года назад +1

      Modern is usually voted 3rd with Pepe's and Sally's flip-flopping between 1 and 2. I will say that if you want a pizza with eggplant on it, Modern is the place to go!

      @@Ryan713 I don't see Pepe ever doing well with the locals. It's usually between Sally's and Modern with that place( I forget the name ) in West Haven sometimes making the list. It starts with a Z I think, they are known for their sausage

    1) If you want birch beer--or just local soda in general--you need to do Foxon Park. They're in East Haven, but you can find it in Stop and Shop around the state.
    2) Connecticut milkshakes have ice cream.
    3) If you want to check out a wide variety of restaurants at once, hit up Main Street in Middletown.

    @1:05 Definitely recommend Frank Pepe’s over Sally’s if you want to try New Haven style apizza for the first time, especially if you’re coming from eating other styles of pizza.
    Pepe’s is more accessible literally as in there are a bunch of them around CT but also tastebud-wise, as in it’s less charred than Sally’s is.
    Don’t ever say New Have style is “burnt” to any fans of New Haven style But to be honest, the charcoal flavor is the most divisive thing about it.
    Anyway, try the Tomato Pie anywhere. And go try places outside of Pepe’s and Sally’s. Bar , Zuppardi’s, Roseland, Fuoco’s, Mike’s, Ernie’s. Just look for the word “apizza”.

    Next time you’re in Connecticut come up to Manchester and have pizza and or grinders at CJs on Broad St. You won’t regret it delicious. They are closed on Mondays and they shut down for a week or 2 in August for vacation.

    Louis' Lunch in New Haven is the birthplace of the hamburger (disputed with Texas). Their burgers come steamed as they did at the turn of the 20th century. Just don't ask for ketchup because it didn't exist back then

    • @GoingFar77
      @GoingFar77 Год назад

      You got it right, except that they are flame broiled, not steamed. Steamed would be O'Rourke's or (not as good), Ted's.

    Burgers in New Haven at Louis' Lunch are broiled vertically, rather than horizontally. (Also, don't ask for ketchup or mustard, it'll apparently ruin the freshness of the garnish, and the juiciness of the beef.)

    We love Mystic for seafood but we live closer to Captains Cove in Bridgeport which has what we think the best fresh fish & chips! Their fried fish is always so fresh and cooked to order it is pricey for sure but worth it considering how good it is! We are def lovers of Pepe Pizza the white clam pie is excellent! Another great and very pricey pizza is Roselands In Derby we live close by and we love their food they sell a Medium Shrimp casino pie for $50 bucks!! We treated ourselves to one a few months ago and while we thought we were crazy to pay that amount of money for a Medium size pizza it really was delicious the shrimp were fresh and huge and the entire pizza was covered in shrimp. If you are ever looking for a wonderful lobster mac n cheese Roselands is the best I have ever had it is def pricey but you get a really good amount!!
