Polly & Joan’s Cordial Company (Closed)

Cordially Closed Polly & Jean Cordials, Wallingford I apologize to Polly & Jean. I apologize for never writing a page about your cold-soaked cordials when you were still in the business of cold-soaking fruit into cordials. Now, I'm not pretending that my doing so would have helped the business at all. I'm merely … [Read more...]

285. The Paul Mellon Arts Center Galleries

Another Museum Off My Honeydew List Wallingford (Google Maps location) February 28, 2015 I have a weird and perhaps unhealthy fascination with Connecticut's $60k+ per year private boarding schools. Jealousy? Nah. I think it's that I live very near several of them and they are just alien worlds to me. At … [Read more...]

Center Street Brewing Co.

Wallace Avenue Brewing Company Center Street Brewing Company, Wallingford April 2019 The slogan of Center Street Brewing Company is “Welcome to the Center of the Brewniverse.” Tortured as that may be, it is apt. I’ve written before about how Connecticut has so many breweries now that there’s this massive bell … [Read more...]

CTMQ’s Guide to Wallingford

Everything Wallingford I’ve been exploring and writing about Connecticut since 2006. After a decade, I began compiling CTMQ guides for each town in the state. I plan on “completing” Wallingford CTMQ-style... as well as the other 168 towns, cities, and boroughs in Connecticut. That is the ultimate goal of CTMQ. … [Read more...]

New England Cider Company

Location is BeCides the Point New England Cider Company, Wallingford February 2018 It’s amazing what one can find in faceless corrugated steel and cinder block rows of businesses on a road full of such things in Wallingford. Sure, you can find ambulance chasing law firms and restaurant supply stores and small … [Read more...]

Redscroll Records

DJ MacaDamian Nut Redscroll Records, Wallingford I know there are a few vinyl record shops that still exist around the state. Heck, I’ve already (sort of) profiled one in Vernon. And no, I think we agree that it is not part of this website’s mission to visit and chronicle them all. In fact, this will be the last … [Read more...]

Front Porch Brewing

It’s a Brewery. In a Garage. Not on a Porch Front Porch Brewing Company, Wallingford May 2018 I have a porch on the front of my house. It is very small. Maybe three friends could join me there for a beer. The first time I visited Front Porch brewing in Wallingford, the space felt similar. It was tiny. It was also … [Read more...]

Cliffside Brewing

It’s a Brewery. On a Street. Not a Cliff. Cliffside Brewing Company, Wallingford May 2018 What you’re about to read is a sort of turning point for myself and for CTMQ. Without getting all philosophical about things, I’ve written much about Connecticut’s beer industry since 2008 or so. I’ve been fortunate enough … [Read more...]

Sweet Cioccolata

Sweeeet, Bro Sweet Cioccolata, Wallingford May 19, 2018 I joked before that downtown Wallingford must have the most bars per capita in the state. I have no idea if that’s even close to being true, but at least one Walli-World resident noted, “Yeah, there are a lot.” So there you have it. Data Science at its … [Read more...]

WLT: Ravenswood

Can’t Rave About This One Either Ravenswood, 0.5 miles, Wallingford Land Trust January 17, 2015 As regular readers know, I’m a completist. For better or for worse. The entire website; this massive decades-long undertaking is nothing more than a bunch of lists that I feel compelled to complete. From our state’s … [Read more...]
