If i have 4 hours to myself I need action, play golf or something....I couldn’t watch Alvin, Simon, and Theodre at work. Not knocking it, maybe when I retire...I’ll raise chickens and kill deer. The most avid hunters I know (extended family) are in NE CT... they'll sit in a tree stand for a week out in the woods if it means getting a deer.

If we get the Whalers back then all is well, jk. But in all seriousness, it’s a nice state even though New Englanders think we are the armpit....but they come to our casinos at least. At least you have New haven for pizza. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 Nobody in SNE knows how to do pizza except a select few. These bullsh*t house of greasa's are terrible. Tough to find a North End Regina's quality pizza. There is a place up the road in Lawrence that is one of the best around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Outside of the classic New Haven apizza, Flatbread Co. in Davis Square is the best I've had in Boston. There's a bowling alley in there too. Believe the owner worked formerly for American Flatbread in Middlebury VT. They make a damn good pie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of challenges to be sure but I’m hopeful necessary changes will help move the state forward in the next few decades. I might be the only person under 35 who wants to move back I grew up in NJ so CT is a step up or two lol. The “Lets Go CT” plan is a game changer for the state that should, barring any funding failures, get the infrastructure and the state moving in the right direction. We are way behind.

Ginx snewx Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 Best pizza dough is the sweet Italian dough. Thick or thin , extra toasted or just done it's one of a kind. Sweet pizza made with no cheese and eaten cold is something I recommend you try. Pizza Lady in Pawcatuck Ct has been making it since the 1920s.

Came in a yellow was paper wrap about 24 by 24 for a 1.75. Catholics didn't eat meat on Fridays. It was made in a coal fired outside oven, hand made dough. It still tastes the same.
