Clamping Down on This Roadfood List Clamp's Hamburger Stand, New Milford Clamp’s! I did it! For years I tried to get to this place on trips out “west”.

Hot Dogs at Top Dog
Top of Da Food Chain! Top Dog, Portland We have arrived at the very last and final hot dog on the Sterns' Roadfood "Eat Before it's too Late" list. There are sixteen hot dogs on the list.

Hot dogs at Mr. Mac’s Canteen
Miggedy-Miggedy-Miggedy Mac Mr. Mac’s Canteen Monroe "We deep fry our hotdogs and then roll them on the grill, crisp, and put them on a fresh toasted, grilled roll," says Jeffrey McFadden, co-owner of Mr. Mac's Canteen (in a now dead link from the Courant.)

Hot Dog at Lake Zoar Drive-In
Me Hungry. ZOOOOOAAARRR! Lake Zoar Drive-In Monroe It has been a couple years since I’ve been able to enjoy a new Roadfood “Eat Before You Die” entry.

Mystic Pizza
This Place Mystic-fies Me Mystic Pizza, Groton October 5, 2013 The things I do for you people. The sacrifices… the pain. Things like eating overpriced so-so pizza at one of Connecticut's few and true tourist traps. It just had to be done once. For the site. And for you.

Portugal: O’Camelo
Oh Oh Camelo! Park Street, Hartford April 27, 2013 This was the first event of the CTMQ CT Restaurant Tour of the World. I did it!

Pizza at Pizzeria Laurentano
From Napoli to Bethel 291 Greenwood Ave, Bethel 16 Bucks I think This restaurant closed in 2017. Nailed it. Finally.
