Very popular pizza restaurant. We love the fried eggplant pizza. This is a New Haven staple and competes with other very busy pizza places here including Pepe’s (my second favorite pizza place), Sally’s, and BAR. There’s a lot of controversy over which place is best.

Ok so this is technically not in New Haven, but in a nearby town called Branford. Just about 15-20 minutes driving, Branford is very cute and Stony Creek Brewery is located right by the water. The beer is decent but it’s really the atmosphere that draws a big crowd.

The Canal Trail is a biking trail that cuts through much of Connecticut. It runs right through our neighborhood. If you go to Fussy Coffee, you can find it right behind the cafe and bike or walk right into town. This part of the trail is nice, because it takes you right by a park, Yale buildings and you land right on the very beautiful street of Hillhouse Ave.
