This weeks topic for Ten on Tuesday is 10 Favorite Places to Eat. I really like to eat, so this will be easy.
1. Little Mark’s Big Barbecue, Vernon, CT - Best ribs in the area. I love ribs! Yum!
2. Harry’s Drive-in, Colchester, CT - a small road-side stand that has awesome hamburgers and chili dogs. Yum!
3. The Brown Derby, Uncasville, CT - little hole in the wall bar that has fabulous Mexican food. Yum!
4. Dairy Queen, Kensington, CT - A swirl cone with sprinkles, or maybe a vanilla cone with a cherry dip or perhaps a hot fudge sundae. Yum!
5. The Marlborough Tavern, Marlborough, CTÂ - To die for French onion soup. Yum!
6. The Steak Loft, Mystic, CT - My favorite place to go for Fish & Chips. Yum!
7. Outback Steakhouse, Everywhere, CT - I tried not to include any big chain restaurants but I enjoy the food at Outback and I really like their wings. Yum!
8. Mill on the River, Manchester, CT - I like almost everything on their menu. Yum!
9. Cheesecake Factory, Everywhere, CT - Have you seen their selection of cheesecake?? Yum!
10. Wood ‘N Tap, Southington, CT - My favorite place to get a Reuben. Yum!
These are my opinions according to my taste buds. YMMV. Now I’m hungry!

I have great memories of The Marlborough Tavern - growing up in Marlborough, we had quite a few family dinners there. In high school and college, I worked next door at the Taylor’d Touch (the original location). Funny - I was in town a few days ago and wondered if anyone still goes there, since it looked dead. Guess I have the answer! I’ll have to get the family there.
Try Frank Pepe’s in Manchester. The original is in New Haven, of course, but the Big Guy says the one in Fairfield is EXACTLY like the original, so I assume Manchester is, too. Otherwise, the only place I know in that part of the state is Ruth’s Chris. I’m hoping to get the old man to take me to The Greenwich Tavern tomorrow after some “practice”….they have the best calamari I’ve ever eaten!
I live in CT down near the shore. Will definately try your # 2 - 3- 10.
I have not come acress a cheesecake Factory down here, where are they?
MMmmm. Ribs.
