Junior's for the best Cheesecake at Foxwoods

My father in law is not obsessed with food like some of us. When we go out and I ask him what he thought of a meal, the typical reply is that it was “okay”. Although he won't admit it, there is one thing that he enjoys more than any other and that is desserts – particularly cheesecake. So every once and awhile we would be chatting and casually mention that the cheesecake at some random place is really good and he would always pipe in and say "but it's not Junior’s cheesecake!" Since I’ve never had Junior’s, I didn’t understand what the big deal was but apparently their cheesecake is what he compared all others to.


After hearing about this place for years, my wife noticed that there was a location at Foxwoods Casino. We had to find out for ourselves if it was really that great so we took off on a road trip. In full disclosure, my wife doesn’t eat cheesecake so the burden was solely on me. She merely went to gamble!

My father in law was right, Junior's does have some of the best cheesecake you will eat. My take is the texture is creamier than most giving their version a leg up on everybody else. So yes it is definitely time for a road trip to the great state of Connecticut and a visit to Junior's.
If you are looking for something to do there are plenty of gambling options at Foxwoods so try your hand at lady luck.
You can also find them in Brooklyn, Times Square and Good Central Terminal along with a bakery outlet in Burlington, New Jersey. There is also an option to have a cheesecake shipped directly to you if you're not near one of their locations but let's face it, a drive is better no matter where you are.

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.

David's in Kennebunkport, Maine

Fond memories come to mind when I think of the small seacoast town of Kennebunkport, Maine. Back in my college days, I spent a summer there working at the Colony Hotel and jogging by George Bush’s house down the road. It has been a long time since then but my wife and I go back frequently for the shopping, ocean, and of course the food.

Captain Frosty's in Dennis, Massachusetts

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.
