We enjoyed The Holy Cow Ice Cream Shop in Newtown, CT…read more The Holy Cow Ice Cream Shop is a classic vintage-style shop offering small-batch, handmade ice cream crafted on-site with local dairy. The ice cream shop has outdoor picnic tables, toddler friendly rides, fresh waffle cones, and dairy-free or vegan options. I recommend trying the Avalanche ice cream with chocolate chips with Reese's Peanut butter M&Ms! So delicious!! We had friendly service. Check it out when in the area. Happy Yelping :)

Slice Mob made another stop today, this time at Mangia Mi in Sandy Hook…read more What a great afternoon. From the minute we walked in, Chef Rebecca came over and welcomed all of us. You could tell right away this wasn't just another restaurant. It's her place, and she's proud of it. I really liked the vibe. Big open dining room, an open kitchen where you can watch everything being made, and family pictures all over the walls. It just feels comfortable. The pizza is New Haven-style apizza. The tomato pie was excellent. The San Marzano tomatoes really stand out. Nice fresh tomato flavor, a great bake, plenty of crunch, and a finishing dusting of grated cheese that pulled it all together without getting in the way. The cheese pizza was exactly what a cheese pizza should be. Sometimes the simplest pie tells you the most about a pizzeria, and this one didn't disappoint. My favorite was Donnie's Hot Pepper & Mushroom. The peppers brought just enough heat without taking over. The mushrooms added a nice earthy flavor that balanced everything out. Every bite just worked. One thing that stood out was that everything is made from scratch. You can taste it. Nothing felt like it came out of a bag or was rushed. Mangia Mi is the kind of place you leave already thinking about what you're ordering next time. We only scratched the surface today. I definitely want to come back and work my way through more of the pizzas, fresh pastas, seafood, and whatever specials Chef Rebecca is putting together. Thanks to Chef Rebecca and her team for taking such good care of the Slice Mob. We'll be back.

Ferris Ice Cream in Newtown…read more 5 Perfect! It wasn't too crowded on a Sunday around noon-ish. The young girl who waited on us very sweet, as if she had just eaten a pint of ice cream herself. I was into tasting basic favors so chocolate and strawberry for me. Nice portions. The chocolate had a nice deep flavor and the strawberry not too chunky. Just the right amount of sweetness. Texture reminds me of gelato All in all, a perfect experience, can't wait to go back.

Beautiful day for ice cream!…read more Stopped by around 11:30am on a Saturday. Waited about 10 minutes to place the order. Chose the Peanut Butter Lover's sundae. Soft vanilla ice cream with peanut sauce, whipped cream and Reese's pieces in a cup. Waited about 15 minutes for them to make it. Delicious. Lots of other flavors to choose from. Shared with my hubby on a wood bench nearby, under a tree for shade. To the right of the building is the staff parking. To the left is customer parking. This early, no problem finding a spot. They also sell fresh eggs. $6 for a dozen.

Amazing breakfast! Great customer service! A very pleasant environment to sit and enjoy our meal!read more

So, my wife and I, along with our tween daughter, visited Hilltop Kitchen on a whim last Saturday…read more First impressions were wonderful. The dining room was empty as we came early, and it looked beautiful. The entire restaurant, to the eye, is absolutely a vibe. There was one server on shift at the time and she was very nice and welcoming. We had very high hopes for the meal to come. We were fairly disappointed. It was during a brunch service. Initially ordered the calamari as an appetizer. Yes, calamari as a brunch app is kind of strange however since it was available I ordered it. I typically order this wherever I go, because I execution-wise, it's not the easiest thing to prepare correctly. This app was tiny, as in the serving size. Additionally the calamari itself was super small as well. No nice meaty rings. No crispy tentacles. Just a greasy mess. The dish purports the dipping sauce to be that of a fra diavolo, it was not. It was more like a marinara with chunky bits of aromatics and perhaps a bit of crushed red pepper. It was also very pricey given everything. Even if it were perfect, still on the pricey side. At the same time my daughter ordered French toast. For $18. We are talking $6 a slice of brioche. Wild business, that. As mains, my wife ordered the avocado toast. Which she actually seemed to enjoy, although the bread was soggy, and the other items on the plate severely lacking. I ordered the "lobster" cake eggs Benedict. If this was lobster, then I'm the Mother Theresa. It was, by my palate overly processed canned crab meat. At best, overly processed lobster meat, but I highly doubt that given the taste, color, and texture. The CRAB cake itself was meh, the accompanying potato hash was okay, and the hollandaise sauce was passable if not good. We ordered drinks as well. My lemon drop martinis were pretty good. My wife was dissatisfied with her margarita, then ordered a dirty martini that was okay. We walked out with a tab of nearly $200. To say it was worth the money would be absurd. I hate to be so blatantly honest with this review, but this experience (food and drink-wise) was not one I would recommend.

Found this Newtown gourmet spot because they have many gluten free options…read more PARKING - the location is in a very small commercial plaza. There are a few spots but depending when you come it could be tight Also the spots have those cement barriers so if your car is lower to the ground just be careful AMBIANCE - inside the store is very clean and nicely designed PRODUCTS - lots of interesting gourmet items and a plethora of gluten free choices. We came for the De Pumas frozen pasta. For gluten free this brand is about as close to the real thing as you can get CHOCOLATE - they have some nice stuff including Bridgewater bars. Their sugar free ones are really excellent SERVICE - the lady at the counter was cordial and congenial. Extremely welcoming PRICES - it's a gourmet shop so the prices are pretty high. Not for the thin wallet but you do get quality at the premium price

Despite 40% of the staff missing for multiple reasons, the staff handled caring for a full house - inside and out - as best as possible. The wait was worth every minute after I dug into the Linguini and Clams Portuguese Style. One of the best meals in a long time! Reminded me of summer meals in the Portguguese section of Fall River MA. Ralph prepares this dish from scratch and the small clams were fresh and fantastic. The portion can easily feed 2 and more. My family's more traditional eggs and bacon and toast dishes were perfectly cooked and delicious. Outside seating offers beautiful river views. Inside is a bit cramped so if the weather is good head outside! Next visit - ordering the dish ahead of my arrival!

(It was the morning rush totally do-able) I finally got to the window and was asked by the male worker to pull around again because they hadn't made my drink yet. The line had doubled by then and I had to wait another 30 minutes. My order was simply a tall brown sugar shaken espresso. No other items, just a tall drink. I wasted so much gas sadly in this drive through. A customer should never be told to come back after waiting for 20 minutes. My drink was good though. Idk I can't justify this for a drive through, Especially for a tall drink no other items. By the time I got to the window the second time my iced drink was pretty melted.
