EPISODE #3 | MIDDLETOWN

On this week's episode of Eating CT, we hit Middletown for a taste of the city's exploding dining scene! This place is a virtual United Nations of restaurants featuring Italian, Chinese, Japanese, Indian, Thai and pretty much anything else you've got a craving for. We also stop by O'Rourke's Diner, which is back and better than ever since the devastating fire that destroyed it in 2006. Plus, we visit the folks at It's Only Natural and find out the secrets behind their award winning vegetarian cuisine. You never knew tofu tasted so good! We'll even meet a guy who has cooked for the Pope, the King of Bahrain, even the Dalai Lama! Along the way, we take a tour of the historic Wadsworth Mansion and check in at the Green Street Arts Center for some dancing, painting and singing. You'll learn how Middletown has completely transformed itself into one of the state's hottest dining destinations!
