Most of the places I've known longest in my life are pizza places and Italian restaurants. They've outlasted the generations. I need to get more on my site. Any recommendations or are you solely Connecticut based? Nick,

French snobbiness aside (and their cuise in intense, complicated and totally not available for selling at a profit) Italian food is the STANDARD for restaurant offering. It could be a DEPRESSION in the USA, and if you can give good, solid Italian food, you don't go under. NO OTHER CUISINE, not counting burgers and dogs, can make that claim. Do Italian food well, and you will have a home run business on your hands. You can't say the same about any other cuisine. (Now, NYC doesn't count, thats not real life) French, German, Porteguese, ANYTHING wont' make it at times, even if your good. Italian..........................well, can you say the Fountain of Youth.? Guy

I'm all about good value and high level deliciousness. You should try the all you can eat ribs at Georgia's East Side BBQ next time you're in town. Believe it or not, I've never been to Red Lobster. Is that wrong? When it's time to come to town, get in touch with me and I'll provide you with some serious spots to really enjoy yourself in the city without breaking your wallet. DocChuck,

Thus, I imagine you might lure as "love interests" potential "Fear Factor" contestants with it and if that "floats your boat" (as you younger people say) then that's jolly well ok by me. As far as New Yawk City dining goes, the last time my wife and I travelled to your "Big Apple," she was in the midst of a rather DISASTEROUS decision to forego all foods but meat, fish, chicken, cheese, and clear liquors. We sampled several of your more "famous" steak houses (Peter Lugar, Smith and Wollensky) since we simply LOVE a good hunk of meat (we only recently returned from Montana where we ate nothing but fabulous slabs of steak!!) but we found them rather wanting. For the EXTORTIONARY prices they charged, we certainly expected more. The best meal we had during our trip was at your vaunted Red Lobster (supposedly the Manhattan location is the "best" by far). It certainly lived up to its reputation in our book. Luckily we dined during their "never ending shrimpfest" (or something like that) and my wife was able to gorge herself on shrimp done at least 4 or 5 ways, including with cheese sauce. My "surf and turf" was perfectly cooked and a terrific bargain. We intend to visit again this summer, and will definitely return to Red Lobster -- not that we won't try out more of the local hotspots. As I have stated before, we can afford to eat anywhere we like, but we demand VALUE for our HARD-EARNED dollars.

Who exactly would I be a potential love interest for with this plate of cavatelli? Where have you eaten in NYC? I'm sure you've been here during your travels. DocChuck,

But I am concerned that you would present a potential love interest with a plate of cavatelli like that. To be frank with you, the photo is not at all appetizing. You might consider replacing it with a photo of your lady friend. ~~ Chuck, PhD I am glad to hear that your date enjoyed herself.
