@KPOT Korean BBQ & Hot Pot is bringing the heat this winter! šŸ”„ Cozy up with an all-you-can-eat hot pot and Korean BBQ feast ā¤ļø Thereā€™s locations nationwide, with 2 in CT - this time, we visited the Orange location on the Boston Post Road! When youā€™re seated, youā€™ll be given an iPad to order all of your meats, veggies, and noodles for your meal. Itā€™s nice that everything has pictures so you know exactly what youā€™re getting! We often choose the Spicy Szechuan and Healthy Herbs broths for hot pot, and standouts for Korean BBQ are often the ribeye, smoked garlic pork belly, garlic chicken, and beef bulgogi. It doesnā€™t take long for everything to come to your table once youā€™ve ordered, but we like to use this down time to hit the sauce bar and grab a few appetizers from the buffet, like egg rolls, sesame balls, and onion rings. Colten is a master at creating his own sauce to dip our BBQ in! They have so many choices for you to make it exactly how you like! We also enjoyed several cocktails from the bar, and they have non-alcoholic options as well - I recommend the pineapple passionfruit juice šŸ˜‹ We find the prices to be super reasonable here: $20.99 for lunch Monday-Friday 12-4pm, $30.99 for dinner Monday-Friday 4pm-close and all day on weekends. Itā€™s $5 more to do both KBBQ and hot pot, and thereā€™s special pricing for kids depending on their age range. We really enjoyed our experience at the KPot in Orange! The restaurant was super clean, and the staff were always nearby to change out the grill if we needed. Theyā€™re happy to walk newcomers through the experience, so we encourage you to stop by for a great meal! Donā€™t forget, ice cream is included too! #foodofct #orange #orangect #newhavencounty #connecticutlife #menu #ctfoodies #ctbloggers #ctblogger #ctblog #connecticuteats #connecticut #ctrestaurant #ctrestaurants #connecticutfood #ctlocal #kpot #kpotbbq #kpotiktok #kpotkoreanbbqandhotpot #koreanbbq #koreanbbqrestaurant #koreanbarbeque #hotpot #hotpotrestaurant #allyoucaneat #ayce

Maru 67 is officially opening at Oxfordā€™s Quarry Walk plaza next Thursday, 1/30!! There arenā€™t many revolving sushi bars in CT, and we are so excited to have Maru be less than 20 minutes from us šŸ˜ We loved our sneak peek experience and think itā€™s great that itā€™s a flat fee of $26pp for lunch or $36pp for dinner, rather than some spots that would charge per plate. Thereā€™s plenty of non-sushi and vegetarian sushi options as well! One of our favorite parts was getting to order off the tablet and having our food arrive to us on a cart tableside! Thereā€™s no additional charge for doing that, it just allows you to get exactly what you want if you donā€™t see it on the belt. This is about to be the hottest restaurant in Oxford šŸ”„šŸ£ Head to my Instagram page for a chance to win a free dinner here! #foodofct #oxford #oxfordct #newhavencounty #quarrywalk #revolvingsushi #sushibar #sushi #sushilovers #ctlocal #ctblog #ctblogger #ctbloggers #sushilover #sushilove #ctgiveaway #sushitimešŸ£ #connecticut #connecticutliving #connecticutblogger #connecticutfoodie #cteats #sushitime #conveyorbeltsushi #sushiaddict #allyoucaneat #ayce

Weā€™ve been curious about Sitar in New Haven for years, so when we heard that they had remodeled and added a bunch of new menu items, we decided it was time to finally stop by! Indian food is one of Coltenā€™s favorite cuisines, and it fit perfectly into our winter comfort food series šŸ„° Since we were in the adventurous spirit, we tried two dishes weā€™ve never had before - malai chicken kebab and goat curry! We werenā€™t sure how we were going to feel about goat, but it was so good, and the way it was cooked reminded us of short rib! Sitarā€™s many is very diverse, with an emphasis on northern Indian cuisine. The restaurant has a perfect balance of maintaining tradition while also embracing a modern flair. Choose a cocktail to pair with your meal, or if youā€™re looking for a non-alcoholic drink, a mango lassi is always refreshing choice. Whether youā€™re an Indian food lover or coming to try it for the first time, youā€™ll fall in love with Sitar! Keep them in mind for private events as well!

Sorry, Chipotleā€¦ we need to break up. @casagrillect in Watertown treats me betterā€”with fresh halal Latin fusion, housemade tortillas, no GMOā€™s or artificial ingredients, and the best burrito bowls. Plus, Mexican cola, churros, and coquito iced coffee? Yeah, Iā€™ve moved on. The owners are the absolute sweetest people, and itā€™s a place where youā€™ll feel so good supporting local! Open daily 11:30am-8pm, you can dine in, order takeout, or get delivery through GrubHub and DoorDash. This family-owned spot really impressed us and has been a great new addition to Watertown! ā¤ļø Head to my Instagram page for more details on all featured menu items! #f#foodofctw#watertownw#watertownctl#litchfieldcountyc#connecticutlifem#menuc#ctfoodiesc#ctbloggersc#ctbloggerc#ctblogc#connecticuteatsc#connecticutc#ctrestaurantc#ctrestaurants#c#connecticutfoodc#ctlocal#h#halalh#halalfoodh#halalfoodsl#latinfusionf#fastcasualf#fastcasualfoodf#familyowneds#supportlocals#supportlocalbusinesslatinfood

The next time youā€™re craving Italian food, take a drive to Farmington to visit Piccolo Arancio! Chef Flori Kryeziu has a menu full of modern Italian dishes that we really enjoyed. Piccolo Arancio has been a local favorite since 1994. We enjoyed all of our courses, with standouts being the perfectly cooked lamb and unique baked berries dessert. Everyone is super welcoming, and the menu has a ton of dishes and specials to choose from! Many dishes are prepared in their wood burning oven, including pizza. Donā€™t miss the homemade pasta!

@squarepegpizzeria for pizza loversā€”and so much more! šŸ•šŸ”„ We stopped by their Plainville location and couldnā€™t get enough of the Detroit-style pepperoni pizza, which was crispy on the edges, super cheesy, and flavorful šŸ˜ The Bianco wood-fired pizza with maple syrup and Calabrian chili oil was the perfect mix of sweet and spicy, and we were a big fan of the sweet & smoky dry rub wings. But it doesnā€™t stop thereā€”their pasta dishes, cocktails, and desserts are just as impressive. With happy hour every day from 2-6pm and on weekends from 8:30pm-11pm, plus weekend brunch, thereā€™s always something happening. While we were there, we even caught one of their monthly pizza-making and wine-pairing classes, which looked like a blast! You can find Square Peg at six locations in CT (Shelton opening soon!), and if you find yourself in Delray Beach, FL, they have one there too! We visited the Plainville location, which is a total hidden gem just off of 84!

We were craving a change of scenery, so we took a short drive over the CT border to Southwick, MA! Our friends told us that the Country Colonial Shop there is a sister store to Old Mill Pond Village in Granby, which we fell in love with this past December, so we decided to take a ride out there and make a day of it! If youā€™re craving a little adventure like we were, consider these stops as an easy day trip idea! ā€¢ @crepes tea house: you can easily come for breakfast, lunch, dinner, late night, or just a snack in between your day! Theyā€™re open daily from 7am-11pm Sunday-Thursday, or even 12am Friday and Saturday. Thereā€™s an Eastern European flair on the menu with savory dishes like borsch and pelmeni dumplings, but theyā€™re also known for their crepes and huge selection of tea! We stopped in after our shopping and indulged in a strawberry, banana, and chocolate crepe, as well as fondue. You can pick from different dipping sauces, so we chose a condensed milk dip since we had chocolate in our crepe! Definitely a unique find in the area. They have an additional location in Springfield as well. ā€¢ Country Colonial Shop: you can spend hours in here! They offer many quality made Amish pieces, adorable decorations, and more. Itā€™s a great spot for new homeowners trying to fill their space, or if youā€™re looking for a nice gift, thereā€™s so much to see! ā€¢ Summer House: a nostalgic spot for many in the area, itā€™s a nice family-friendly spot for a fast casual meal while supporting local. The menu features burgers, hot dogs, ice cream, and more! Weā€™re always looking for day trip ideas, so if you have any, let us know in the comments! ā¬‡ļø #foodofct #southwick #southwickma #hampdencounty #massachusettslife #menu #massfoodies #newengland #newenglandblogger #newenglandlife #massachusettseats #massachusetts #masseats #massachusetts_lovers #massachusettsfood #newenglandliving #fondue #fondues #daytrip #daytrips #daytripping

Since 2019, @SoNo1420 Craft Distillers has been making a name for itself with its small-batch, hand-crafted spirits. This veteran-owned distillery started with award-winning whiskeys and has since expanded to vodkas, botanical gins, and creative ready-to-drink cocktails. Their Vo Vodka recently earned a spot on Wine Enthusiastā€™s Top 100 Spirits of 2024, with a 93 rating for its crisp, clean flavor and warm finish. Itā€™s also 100% natural, sugar-free, gluten-free, vegan, and GMO-free. The innovation doesnā€™t stop thereā€”SONO 1420ā€™s Maritime Collection Bourbons are aged with a coastal twist, including barrels matured at sea on working oyster boats!
