Nice to be Welcomed Home by 13 Bands

Back from a lover-ly trip to London and feeling more confident that I won’t get run over by a bus looking down the wrong side of the street. Wonderful time but nice to be home. So, what did I miss? Looks like Blog Stamford has some good scoop on the new Indian restaurant on Summer plus some other pearls of local wisdom. Streets of Stamford gave some props to the Pizza Tour folks and their new champion, Amore Restaurant (*insert clapping*).

Perhaps most interestingly, the Stamford Downtown Events blog highlights the upcoming Stamford Downtown Street Beat. It’s a street music event that will take place at 6:30pm this Wednesday and next. Annette Einhorn, Director of Marketing and Events of Stamford Downtown Special Services District, told me that the idea was inspired by a similar series in New York City. In fact, one of the groups, Claremont Strings & Ensembles, regularly performs in the city subway. They’ll set up shop here outside Napa Restaurant. Click here for a list/map of musical acts. I plan to take a listen and offer a curbside report - looking forward to it!

And did you check out that a new Indonesian and Malaysian place will open up where Uncle Dia's was on Atlantic?
