Connecticut

Hey! I’m CT native born and raised. Just moved back to the area after graduating school and am looking forward to exploring all of the new restaurants and sites in the New Haven area, i would also like to explore the greater Hartford area more. If you’re interested in joining me drop a line and let’s plan something!!

Welcome to Connect, @ChantelF ! I’m a NYC native and occasionally go to CT but one thing I’ve never had is pizza. Can you shed some light on the pizza style there? I’m sorry if you get tons of those questions but I saw you in the feed and figured this was my chance! :slight_smile:

New Haven pizza style is locally famous- thin slightly burnt crust, sauce seems to be made from scratch thus very flavorful & naturally sweet. A few places don’t put mozzarella on by default so don’t be surprised if you get asked “cheese?”, don’t know if that’s a New Haven thing or a signifier of where in Italy the chef hails from.

ChantelF We are doing a pop-up event for Map your world week in Norwalk March 19th. If you can find a way down the Sound we’d love to have you. I do events for the Newtown Local Guides. I just enlisted a couple of Norwalk Local Guides to start a group. Have you found a group up your way yet. If not start one. Here is the link to our event. I hope you can join us. ‪https://maps.google.com/localguides/meetup/strolling-the-naramake-way.

I’ve started a Hartford Local Guides Community to try and bring together local guides in CT. Because of the size of the state I might just make it a Connecticut wide community but decided to start in the capitol city. Please join and share!

Ben do you live in the Hartord area? How close are you to these Connecticut groups https://plus.google.com/communities/111188015215262953490, https://plus.google.com/communities/103956793886999887654 or Newtown https://plus.google.com/communities/107136484313455635268. I’ll suspect one of these towns are close by. It’ll be nice to show your support these local groups so we can attend each others events. I hope you can join us Ben K.
