How about some likes for Ann who has been a waitress at Frankie's Diner for over 35 years! I stopped by for a late lunch and enjoyed an overstuffed corned beef sandwich with fries. Its always a pleasure catching up with Nick the owner. Don't forget, it's cheesecake day and their cheese is out of this world!
#Bridgeport CT--I had a chance to visit Eva's All Things Greek a couple of times in the last month. They are located at 3783 Main Street in Bridgeport (across the street from Optimum and CVS). The food is outstanding, everything fresh and made to order. What really impressed me the most was when I was in the kitchen there are no fryolotrs. The owner George told me that they don't like to use them opting for pan frying in fresher oil. Mixing french fried potatoes on one order and then frying seafood on another order and before you know it this mixing changes the taste of the food. George's wife Eva assists in cooking and is such a joy in…

It’s Jay Piccirillo aka Ice Man from Micalizzi’s Italian Ices at 712 Madison Avenue in Bridgeport! Micalizzi’s is one of Bridgeport’s oldest existing business and landmark. They started in 1931 with the Piccirillo family taking over in 1977. Probably most famous for their awesome lemon Italian Ice or their piña colada ices, I sampled their canoli ice, needless to say it was awesome. Jay will be advertising throughout the summer the many flavors they have to choose from. What I did not know was they also have soft and hard ice cream and sundaes too!

6:55pm--#Bridgeport CT--#Fairfield CT--A complicated and delayed call mainly because I was on my way to pick up my fix from Arthur's Famous Pizza, 430 Park Avenue and that I had to play back audio from both towns. An officer on patrol spotted a stolen vehicle, a tan Chevy Malibu with CT plates 7AHLE8 on Washington and Pequonnick Streets and gave chase. Bridgeport Police spokesman William Kaempffer confirmed the car was stolen with key back in February. Chatter from all towns including state police radios said it was taken at gunpoint in a carjacking. The pursuit continued to Laurel and Brooklawn Avenue. The pursuit continued into Fairfield to Park Avenue where the driver almost hit a Bridgeport Police Officer at Wilson…

I felt like I was sent back in time when I visited the Famous Fifties Diner at 472 Huntington Turnpike in Bridgeport. I met with Kathryn Sanchez who opened the diner in April with her husband. The first thing you notice is the Coca Cola red and white color theme and all the 50's memorabilia on the walls. I wanted to point out that there was something wrong with the flat screen above the counter seating but then it dawned on me they intentionally wanted it to display in black and white! The have all the good foods you expect at a diner including Mexican food; Kathryn told me her husband is from Mexico so I can expect some authentic dishes! Since…
