Abbott’s Lobster in the Rough

Abbott’s Lobster in the Rough - Noank, CT

Definitely the BEST lobster roll I’ve had all season so far! And just look at the size of those oysters!

Right next to Costello’s Clam Shack, Abbott’s has more steamed seafood, so if you’re looking for some fried clams, you won’t find them here, you’d have to drive over to the shipyard next door, and get them there.

Abbott’s is a great place to be on a hot summer day, with outdoor seating along the water; watch the ships sail by and dig into a nice big lunch!

David Burke Prime Steakhouse (Foxwoods Resort Casino)

David Burke Prime Steakhouse at Foxwoods opened back up for dining in the restaurant 2 days before the official Phase 2 Reopening in CT. Although the menu is limited, they do not fail to still deliver their premium steaks, and favorite entrees. Every time I go to David Burke's, I ALWAYS...and I mean ALWAYS (no matter what) order a side of Garlicky Baby Spinach (seen in the first image) and their Double Cut Maple Bacon , which is served as three slices of extra thick-cut candied bacon with a black pepper maple glaze. I promise it is DELICIOUS! I also ordered their 3 course Prime Time Dinner , which allows you to choose from 1 of 5 entrees: Herb-Roasted Chicken, Faroe Island Salmon, Seared Stonington Scallops, a classic cut Prime Rib (12 oz.), or a Petite Filet Mignon (6 oz.). Here, I got a classic cut Prime Rib cooked until it was pink or "medium." I normally eat my steak cooked "well done," but a steak like this tastes better when it's not shriveled up a...

Defending Jacob on Apple TV+

Defending Jacob is a series produced by Apple TV+, based on the book by William Landay with the same name. The series stars Chris Evans, Michelle Dockery, and Jaeden Martell. It premiered on April 24th, 2020, and its final episode of the first season was today, May 29th. I had the distinguished honor of being on set when some of these scenes were being filmed, but I will try not to spoil anything, in case you want to watch it...(which I highly recommend that you do!). The story follows the Barber family from Massachusetts as they deal with the possible accusation that their 14-year-old son may have murdered his fellow classmate. Every week following the initial release of the first 3 episodes in the series, more information regarding the murder of Ben Rifkin are unveiled. But just when it seems like all ends are tied together, they hit you with another twist, making you question every action taken by each character. They all seem to know something regarding the case, but all fing...

Costello’s Clam Shack - Noank, CT

One of my favorite things about living in New England during the summer is being able to eat fresh seafood by the water. Since CT is in the process of their Phase 1 reopening, many restaurants have welcomed customers back with outdoor seating, just in time for the warm weather. Temperatures reached into the upper 70s and low 80s today and boats were docked at the shipyard once again. Not only is it the first time I have sat down to eat at a restaurant since the shutdown, but I also had my first lobster roll of the year--before the first day of summer!! For you seafood lovers who aren’t big fans of the large crustacean, Costello’s also has a wide variety of fried seafood (like the fried whole belly clam roll shown in the picture, served with fries on the side--I substituted one of the orders for sweet potato fries instead of regular ones, for something a little bit different). They also have stuffed clams, and the classic New England clam chowder. The cla...
