1. Flair, on Main Street

Colossal Shrimp Parmesan served with house-made Pappardelle Pasta

Flair

When I went to Flair a few weeks ago I got Hector's Mac and Cheese. Other than it being mac and cheese, it has lobster and shrimp, applewood smoked bacon, tomatoes and asparagus, and roasted jalapeño puree. It was one of the most delicious things I have had in a while. If I knew how to recreate it myself I would but they add a nice touch to the meal that cannot be replicated. The service was very nice, with Hector himself coming out to greet us and ask about our meals. Overall the inside is beautiful with an even better outside patio that faces the green. I highly recommend checking Flair out.

2. J Timothy's Taverne, in Plainville

Buffalo Wings

J Timothy's Taverne

This restaurant isn't in Southington but it is only five minutes away. If you go to J Timothy's you need to get a bucket of Sweet Red Chili Wings. They remind me of the spicy sweet chili Doritos. They have a crunch on the outside along with the sweet/ savory sauce coating the outside as well. Of course, I recommend getting a side of blue cheese to dip them in which will help subside the spiciness.

3. Sushi House, on Meriden Waterbury Turnpike

Sushi Rolls and Sashimi

Sushi House

Sushi House by far has the best sushi in Southington (don't @ me). My top three roles are the Godzilla, Mt. Fuji, and Volcano rolls. They also have exceptional hibachi noodles. I know most people use the "all you can eat" menu but I usually get one or two rolls and become full. Lastly, they have dangerously good Miso soup that always leaves me craving more.

4. Fratelli's Italian Restaurant, on Meriden Waterbury Turnpike

Chicken Fratelli

Fratelli's Italian Restaraunt

Above is my brother's favorite dish at Fratelli's. It is a piece of crispy chicken with one of their signature sauces on top. The flavors are very delicious and go well with a nice bowl of pasta. Fratelli's is small and gives off a nice, home-cooked Italian restaurant vibe. Overall, they have some of the best dishes I know of and can't wait to go back for more.

5. Noble Japanese Steak House, on Queen Street

Sushi Rolls

Noble's Japanese Steak House

The atmosphere at Noble tops a lot of other hibachi restaurants I have been too. You can either dine with a server or have the food made right in front of you. Either way, the servers, and chefs alike give great service and great food. I have had their hibachi many times, and every time I leave very full and very happy.

6. Zingerella, on West Main Street

Zingerella Pizza

Zingerella

Zingerella has very good Italian food and with that an array of amazing pizzas, which are my favorite. Whether it's the buffalo chicken or the shrimp scampi they serve pizza that never dissapoints. They have a dining section and bar section which creates a wonderful atmosphere. On a warm summer day, it's nice to sit and relax on their back patio.

7. Sliders Bar and Grill, on South-Main Street

Buffalo Wings

Sliders

Sliders is a great place to go when you want some classic, great wings. Each time I go I get one of my two favorite wings, either the original buffalo wings or the buffalo blue cheese wings. They have great appetizers, like my sisters favorite, Mac n' Cheese Wedges. All in all, they have some great American style foods that will leave you feeling pleasantly full.

8. The Fire Place, on Center Street

Potato Pizza

The Fire Place

The Fireplace has a warm feeling due to their brick oven they make their fresh pizzas and bread in. I have so many favorite items, like the focaccia bread, potato pizza, and Caesar salad. All specialty pizzas are good, from the Brooklyn Bridge to the Honey Barbecue, they are both equally delicious. They have a fun atmosphere with light music and a divide between the dining section and the bar.

8 Things That Anyone Who Went To A Small School Knows

Sometimes bigger isn't always better.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

12 Most Annoying Things About Working In Sales

No, I can't help you.

Oakland University

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!

16 Things Blondes Are Tired Of Hearing

Please hold your blonde joke.

Another day, another Elle Woods comment. Can’t us blondes get through the day without someone harping at us over the typical stereotypes about who we are? I never understood why a person was judged based upon the hair color they were born with, or the hair color they choose to have (unless you dye your hair blue like Kylie Jenner, I’m still trying to understand why that’s a trend). Nevertheless, as it should be assumed, not everyone is the same. Not all blondes like bright colors and Lilly Pulitzer, and not all blondes claim to identify with Marilyn Monroe. I think the best suggestion to give to people before they make such radical claims is to stop judging a book by its cover. Or in this case, stop judging a blonde by her hair color.
