As a longtime resident of the Brass City, there are plenty of things to complain about — the traffic, the mall, how there's never anything fun to do. But, there is one thing I can't complain about and that's how great of a selection of food we have in the 203. There's something to meet the needs of everyone's taste buds. After careful consideration and input from other fellow Waterburians (I just made that up), I compiled a list of the best places to eat in Waterbury, CT. This list combines the tried and true staple food places that we have all grown up loving, as well as some new places that are gaining some buzz! Happy Eating!

1. Nardelli's

The absolute best place to get a grinder in Waterbury hands down! The bread is always fresh and they have every ingredient you can think of to really personalize your sandwich. You get way more for your money than if you were to go to Subway.

2. Avventura's

Your one stop shop for baked goods, salads, wraps, sandwiches. Also, they have the BEST chicken parmesan — just ask Molly Murphy, she'll tell you.

3. Tower Grill

The cutest little diner in Waterbury with the best breakfast food. Seriously, everything on the menu is good. Just make sure you bring cash as they don't accept cards, which just adds to the charm of this place!

4. Domenick & Pia's

New York is definitely not the only place to find great pizza. Surprisingly, Waterbury has an awesome pizza selection but in my opinion, this place knocks all other pizza places out of the water.

5. Frankie's

You know its summertime when the Frankie's on Watertown Ave is finally open again for the season. Frankie's is known for their hot dogs of course, and is just an absolute staple of Waterbury food.

6. Singo Sushi

Not a fan of sushi but this place is a favorite for a lot of my friends, and those whom I consulted with during the process of making this list. The people wanted sushi, so I gave them sushi.

7. Ami's Bagels

There is no better way to start your morning than with a fresh, hot bagel from Ami's. Enjoy it with cream cheese or make it into a sandwich and it will put you in a good mood for the rest of the day.

8. San Marino's

The perfect fine dining restaurant for any special occasion. San Marino's is another staple in Waterbury with the most delicious Italian food.

9. Brooklyn Baking Company

Best. Donuts. Ever. The end.

10. Pan Del Cielo Bakery

This Puerto Rican bakery is the best in Waterbury. Fresh bread is one of my favorite things in life and this place knows how to do it right. They also make great sandwiches and Spanish desserts.

11. Los Garcias Mexican Fusion Truck

This food truck is located right behind the Brass Mill Mall. I know what you're thinking, but the quesadillas from this place are to die for. If you're looking for cheap, authentic Mexican food then look no further. There's even a small, inside seating area where you can sit and enjoy your meal.

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

There have been many lessons learned.

1. The importance of traditions.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

3. How to give back.

4. What the word "community" really means.

5. That it isn't about the destination, but the journey.

6. The consequences of making bad choices.

7. To trust people, until you have a reason not to.

8. To be welcoming and accepting of everyone.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.
