Eating out should be special, and special to me means not wasting an opportunity on a chain restaurant. I want it to be a local place, and I want it to be good, whether it’s upscale or a dive bar. This especially applies when I’m daytripping and find myself in a new town or corner of the state. With that in mind, I am launching a new series called Five Good Places, that will list five places to eat and drink in towns, or near towns and regions, that are not massive chain restaurants. I’m talking about the kinds of places people who check the Chowhound boards eat in; in short, the type of places you should hit up for a native dining experience when you find yourself in a particular corner of the world, whether it be New Canaan, New Hartford or North Grosvenordale.
So here is the inaugural Five Places, and where better to start than with coffee in our capital city with Five Good Places for Coffee in Hartford? I’m always on the lookout for good coffee. If I can’t make own at home, I really rather try a local place than a D+D.
