Looking for a completely unique CT experience this Fall? There is simply no better way to spend an afternoon than to be chauffeured around in a classic car followed by a delicious picnic prepared by Chef Frederic Kieffer. This newly created Chauffeured Classic Car Picnic Experience is part of the Delamar Hotel Group’s Luxury Experience program and is not to be missed. I am fortunate to have had the opportunity to enjoy this myself.
Overlooking the Mediterranean sea, nestled among 3 hills and their valleys, is the beautiful, old town of Safita, Syria. Only a few miles from the long island sound, nestled between Westport and Fairfield proper, is the beautiful, month old middle eastern restaurant, SAFITA. It is the "Tale" of two Safitas, both with their charm, beauty, and authenticity. And it is just this authenticity that Kheder Hassoun and his family bring to this brand new Middle Eastern restaurant, situated where the old Chat 'N Chew used to be. Tiny in size but big in hospitality, Safita, at 2217 Post Road in Fairfield is pulling in the crowds, night after night. This is middle eastern at its finest, with "Ummu" ("mother" in Arabic) Amal in the kitchen, cooking up all her own recipes from scratch. This ain't your roadside Shawarma.
