The Connection benefits from its (new) location—about four steps from the Chapter House. While the Chapter House’s free popcorn is delicious, it’s not exactly a fully balanced meal, so after drinking there all afternoon for my friend Sarrah’s birthday the other weekend, The Connection’s extensive menu was calling my name. I was curious to see how such a hole-in-the-wall could offer a full menu of Mexican and Italian fare, plus burgers and fries, soft pretzels, wraps, salads, wings, ALL the desserts, and something called “The Aphrodisiac”—a 10 inch heart shaped brownie with ice cream, whipped cream, and a chocolate rose. Sounds more like The Emetic to me.
Being the most indecisive person in the world, I sat staring at the menu for so long I missed the rest of Sarrah’s birthday, but finally ended up with one of the chicken wraps. And, it was good. Which was shocking. Then again, by the time I finished reading the menu I hadn’t eaten in days--they could have handed me a week old Aphrodisiac and it would have been good.
The bottom line? After a night of popcorn and beer, you should probably order a salad.
