Mix fresh tomatoes with a touch of butter and you have a dreamy summer pasta… grilled vegetables Italian-style require only some herbs and olive oil to make them special… Lobster Landing in Clinton, Ct., is making, arguably, the best hot lobster roll in Connecticut, and they'll serve it on a gluten-free roll if you need one. Barrel-aged cocktails at Ordinary's in New Haven, to go with your BBQ. But if it's beer you want, try "The Locals" in South Norwalk and Fairfield…
New Haven's restaurant scene is always jumping:
- For take–out barbecue and gluten–free cornbread try Smoke Box BBQ.
- For farm to table food try Caseus Fromagerie & Bistro.
- For artisanal cheese try Mystic Cheese Company.
