Meadow Stone Farm (Closed)
MMmmm, Cat Cheese Meadow Stone Farm, Brooklyn June 9, 2012 2014 Update: This innocuous little page, which has very little useful information on it, has become one of the stranger places on CTMQ. Much of it is hidden to you readers, but if you look at the comments, they provide some clues. I have deleted many of … [Read more...]
The Chocolate Lab (Closed)
Good Job, Dawg The Chocolate Lab, Greenwich May 25, 2013 2014 Update: I have received word that this place is closed. Re-reading this page is annoying, because I seem to have mixed up the names of the restaurant chef, the chocolate chef, and the real chocolate chef guy whom I never named. But if they are indeed … [Read more...]
J.W. Gorman’s Diving Horses (Gone)
Okay, not Flying But... Diving Horses in Niantic 100 years ago I was poking around the Niantic section of East Lyme one fine day and stopped to check out a sign which noted the highlights of the Niantic River Estuary Canoe/Kayak Trail. I can’t wait to do this paddle someday, especially as they highlighted a … [Read more...]
Thimble Island Brewery & Brewpub (Closed)
Thimble Island Brewing Company, now Brewpub, Branford The brewery/brewpub closed at the end of May 2025. Thimble Island has grown quite a bit since my initial visit in early 2013.

Summer Brook Valley Farm Alpacas (Closed)
Alpaca? But I Hardly Know Ya Summer Brook Valley Farm Alpacas November 26, 2011 This page is... crazy. Summer Brook closed in 2015 for one, and it goes way too deep into alpaca-dom for some reason. But this is the only alpaca place you'll find on CTMQ, though other similar places are of course still operating in … [Read more...]
Charles Ives Birthplace Museum
Bittersweet Symphony Danbury June 2012 2019 Update: No, this wasn’t the 434th museum I visited. It was somewhere around the 175th. But I decided to roll these post-closure “visits” into my general Museum Visits list so I have one less list to worry about. I figure with the defunct visits, it doesn’t really … [Read more...]
Polish Plate at Staropolska (Closed)
Great Place to Polish off a Meal Staropolska, New Britain After 30 years, Staropolska closed in 2024. Ah, New Britski. I could write several thousand words on New Britain’s Broad Street “Little Poland” area. I don’t know why it fascinates me so much, as I’ve been to plenty of neighborhoods with fairly … [Read more...]
