If Your Family Disagrees About Dinner, Hartford’s Parkville Market Gives Everyone Options

One kid wants ramen, another wants tacos, and somebody at the table just wants plain chicken. Most families settle this fight with a coin toss or a sigh. In Hartford, there is a better answer, and it lives under one roof with about 20 food vendors waiting inside.

Eli Eats Blue Lobster and Sees Everything Seafood

Fall break is a much anticipated reprieve from college life, but it can also be a bit bizarre, especially if one is staying on campus to shoot their film project. It then gets really weird if that aforementioned project wraps by Saturday eve, meaning that one has three full days with nothing on the horizon. The campus is, in the words of ska revival band The Specials, “like a ghost town.” Friends have departed for warmer pastures. Professors are professing. There’s actually nothing to do, except Uber to the closest theater, the Picture Show in Berlin, Conn. (rest in peace Metro Movies), to see “You Can See Everything.” The good news is that, on the way, you can get lobster.
