Well, it's a hidden gem with waterfront views and delicious fresh seafood daily harvested oysters, clams and more are the fresh catch at Copps Island Oyster Shack. In this week's road trip. Close to home news, 12 photojournalist, Laurie Goliath takes us off the beaten path. This is, you know, true, New England. This is the Cops Island Oyster Shack. It's a very unique spot. It's relaxing and the view is amazing. We're on a small marina in Stratford, right on the water, gorgeous plantings and beautiful water views. Phenomenal food right out of the water coming from like the Long Island Sound. The river itself is one of the most amazing things. So it's pretty good to know you get an itch right in your backyard. This marina sits um just adjacent to one of the largest uh natural oyster seeded uh areas in Connecticut. For me, I always have to add the like the lemon and you have like a little hot sauce to it and then just like just throw it back. We get the shrimp. Nothing is more than a day or two out of the water. Also, I like the burger and, and fries, whatever it is. The fries are phenomenal hot, Connecticut. Lobster rolls are to die for. So it's a beautiful buttered brioche bun, split top and we toast it beautifully with, uh, with a little bit of butter on the outside. Slowly heat the lobster. So it's just warm and a little bit of butter and then a little Maldon Salt, a little bit of chive touch of lemon juice and a little bit more butter. The Bloom family's been doing this for four generations and, you know, uh Norm really wanted his oyster. The Copps Island oyster on local restaurant plates. Having fresh food is always, you know, 100%. Plus it's a place off the beaten path with a beautiful view and delicious food. Definitely come and check it out, definitely come and check it out. And Copps Island Oyster Shack also has a waterfront location in Norwalk at Cove. Marina. Both spots serve it up fresh Wednesdays through Sundays. For more information. Head over to News twelve.com.

Road trip. Close to home. We're exploring the Throgs Neck neighborhood News twelve's Ellie Murillo is walking you through the next destination on your Bronx bucket list. Most of us spell it differently. It's because of Mr Robert Moses. But one thing's for sure. Throgs neck brings a whole different taste of culture and delicious eats to the Bronx. There's even a free shuttle bus to get you around. But you see the ambience, the atmosphere that that frog's neck is bringing a whole new array to this community. Our first stop was Patricia's who's served the community for over 10 years, family style dining, family oriented then Pastosa where locals say you can find the best raviolis in town. You'll never get tired of it because you're always gonna be trying something else. We even tried a slice at Lena's a new restaurant that transports you straight to Italy from the mouth to the nose. Here it goes to my toes. Oh my God. A not so hidden gem. Great drinks, great food. Great bartenders. Many have yet to explore in Throgs Neck. Eli Murillo News 12. The Bronx
