CT Eats: Mamma G’s a mixed bag
As much as I adored those entrees, dessert left me wanting. Our waitress, who had a good track record with the timballo, claimed that “Dario’s dessert” was the best dessert. I hope that statement was her personal opinion and not the restaurant’s advertising, because if that is their signature dessert, then I think they’ve neglected that department.

CT Eats: Lento is farm-to-table perfection
The octopus had a lovely chew at the first bite, and proceeded to melt in the mouth. The warm vinaigrette on the salad was creamy and smooth with a bright flavor, highlighting the fresh meat. The meat was simple, just a bit of salt and charred-goodness, making room for the dressing to thrive.
