Wouldn't make it an all-day trip, of course. Of course, Hamden Plaza used to be a veritable treasure trove of "art" displays (read: conceptually wacky eyesores).

The next time I go, I'm going to look at the Yale collection of musical instruments.
According to this, Franny and Lane meet "at what must be Princeton."

I think all the small towns in Connecticut are really nice and all the "cities" really suck.

Which small towns (close to New Haven)?

New Haven is becoming quite the happening burg! What is going on?

New Haven is becoming quite the happening burg! It is very disorienting.

So I'll be here the 13th (Mon) thru 17th (Fri), and my friend's probably gonna show me around a lot, but is there anything I should *definitely* check out?

what are you interested in stevie? there's the pizza, and the school, and not much else. . .

i've never been but all the ppl i know at grad school there would tend to agree

I'm going to visit my friend. I'm sure she'll have tons for us to do but idk if there are any "must sees". Guess not?

this thread makes me want a pizza

i want to marry a pizza
well stevie I like going to the peabody museum. if the weather is nice you can walk up to east rock park and camp out. uhmm rudy's has great 'belgian' fries. the pizza at B.A.R. is pretty good and they brew their own beer. hmm what else
― deej me how to whiney (dayo), Monday, 13 December 2010 00:38 (thirteen years ago) link
the music library @ sml is a nice piece of architecture. the A&A building is kinda cool and neat to visit, so is the beinecke.
there are probably some cooler places off campus, like in the southern part of the city, but I didn't do much exploring so *shrug*
― deej me how to whiney (dayo), Monday, 13 December 2010 00:39 (thirteen years ago) link
Pepe's (?) restaurant is supposed to have the best pizza anywhere. I've been there and it doesn't really compare to some of the best places here in north NJ/NYC, but worth checking out anyway. Definitely check out B.A.R. as dayo said... Lots of neat other bars and restaurants on the southern and east sides of the city.

yeah pepe's and sally's are the standard 'bring tourists here' pizza places.
overrated: louis lunch, it's just a burger in between two pieces of white bread iirc.
stay away from: all those thai restuarants
― deej me how to whiney (dayo), Monday, 13 December 2010 03:07 (thirteen years ago) link
Rudy's is not an option until they reopen in their new location on Chapel.
― silent ouzo eclipse (Mr. Hal Jam), Monday, 13 December 2010 03:10 (thirteen years ago) link
Bar or Modern for pizza. Stay away from Pepe's and Sally's. Avoid the overrated Claire's. Cafe Romeo, in East Rock, has better veggie options. we finally got a decent gastropub, Kelly's. How one little city can have so many mediocre Thai restaurants is a question for the ages. but Thali Too, near the campus bookstore, offers good, cheap South Indian eats. Take a campus tour, if you can. The Yale architecture really is something. Oh, and bundle up. We're in for a wet, cold week.

^^ booming post
just struck me that the most appropriate analogy to describe sally and pepe's is that they are the geno's and pat's of new haven
― deej me how to whiney (dayo), Monday, 13 December 2010 03:27 (thirteen years ago) link
Haha I liked those thai restaurants!
― I will always think of you, while (quite) fondly, myself (Evan), Monday, 13 December 2010 04:29 (thirteen years ago) link
Well the one or two I frequented..
And all I get is Pad thai usually.

Stevie, the one gay bar in NH my ex took me to about 8 years ago was hor-rib-ble. I wonder if anything's changed.
