Description

The Culinary History of Fairfield, Connecticut, brims with bygone and beloved eateries and watering holes. Discover some of these lose classics, from the Sun Tavern-where George Washington enjoyed a few victuals-to the Scenario, where local celebrities always had a seat reserved at the bar. The best doughnuts in town were at the corner of Post and Beaumont at Devore's, while Art Green served up his famous chocolate cream pies at the Pie Plate. Join author Patti Woods for a generous serving of nostalgia complete with nachos from Sidetrack's, chili from Kuhn's and maybe even an ice cold beer from the Driftwood. Book jacket.
