Twisted Farm Food and Hash House a Go Go

With road trip season in full swing we decided to head south to Connecticut over the holiday weekend for one of our favorite breakfast places of all time. Our story begins back in 2006 when my wife and I were on vacation in San Diego, California. As many of you know we are always looking for great places for breakfast so we feverishly search for the best local joints when we travel. During this quest I stumbled upon Hash House a Go Go as the favorite. We stopped by and the wait was something like 45 minutes. After passing the time chatting with the locals, we had what was one of the best breakfasts of our lives.

Back to present day - my wife was online and noticed that someone had recommended this great place Hash House a Go Go in Las Vegas. She thought that this was a mistake and that it couldn't possibly be the same place that we remembered from so many years before. Doing a search, she discovered that this restaurant had expanded and was now in New England at Mohegan Sun. Without speaking a word we both knew that it was Time for a Road Trip.

Arriving at Mohegan Sun later in the day (around 12:30 pm) was well after our usual weekend breakfast time and we were starving. We walked through the casino wondering if we would ever find the restaurant. They have nice electronic map to help you navigate and we were soon at our destination.


The restaurant is known for their very large breakfast portions so bring your appetite. In addition to several kinds of hash they also have scramblers, benedicts, flapjacks and waffles.


Corned Beef Hash with onions, peppers, and Swiss cheese. This is definitely not out of a can. Now that is a real breakfast!

Looking for something to do, well, the restaurant is smack dab in the middle of a casino so if gambling is your game you won't have to go far.


For dessert take a short trip to Mystic for some of the best cupcakes at Li's Bake Shop

For our next drive we would like you to experience some great Italian food at Pagliuca's in Boston. Yes, there are many options in the North End but this is one of our favorites. We have been to Pagliuca's dozens of times over the past 10 years and have also checked out a bunch of other restaurants in the area. Joe, Freddie and staff all do a great job serving up mouth watering food.

Captain Frosty's in Dennis, Massachusetts

Image
When we think of our favorite comfort foods there is mac and cheese, pizza, hamburgers, chowder, and meatloaf. Most of these we can make at home unless you're like us and prefer to have someone else make it for you. Anyway, there is one that is very difficult to prepare at home and that is fried seafood. You could buy one of those small fryers or set up a large commercial fryer in your kitchen but for most of us it is just better cooked by somebody else. With the smell of fried seafood permeating in our minds we took off on a recent warm day to Captain Frosty's on Cape Cod in Dennis, MA.

Searching For Heady Topper In Vermont

Image
This is another one for any beer lovers out there as we hunt for Heady Topper. Brewed by Alchemist, it is made in small batches and only available at the brewery, select retail stores and restaurants in Vermont. Supply definitely does not meet the demand and for that reason they frequently run out of stock. There are stories of people following their delivery trucks so they could be first in line to make sure not to miss out. Given that the beer is shipped only on certain days of the week that seemed like the best option if you arrive on the same day but our first stop didn't quite match. We were in Burlington and happened upon The Farmhouse Tap & Grill but their delivery day is Thursday and unfortunately they were out. This was a Wednesday and after checking the Alchemist website schedule finding that Prohibition Pig in Waterbury was on the list we were on our way. Before even sitting down I yelled out to the hostess, do you have Heady Topper? And luck was on my side bec
