New Haven, CT - Trying The World's 1st Hamburger 🍔 & Is New Haven Style Pizza The BEST?

[@OneCouplesAdventure]

So what did you guys think of the pizza? Would you choose the margherita or the potato one. Also has anyone else ever tried the 1st burger sandwich?

[@canneddragoon]

Thank you so much for visiting our city! I work for the city of new haven and im all over the city every day. If you ever come back I would love to show you guys some of the other food spots that are unknown to tourists, because there are A LOT of hidden gems in this city.

[@OneCouplesAdventure]

Thanks so much, we really appreciate it 👍

[@lori6115]

[@OneCouplesAdventure]

Yes, they were! We hope to come back one day 👍

[@spazzcorpse]

I'm glad you tried that amazing pizza in NH,CT. I admire you two lovely people. It's a testament that compatibility between couples does exist.

[@OneCouplesAdventure]

Thanks so much,appreciate it

Long time New Haven family. Surprised Sally's did not offer traditional Foxon Park soda with your abeets. You two are Brits ? My mother was a Connecticut Yankee (Brit). My wife's family came to New Haven in 1639 from Dedham Essex U.K. . My fathers family from Sicily in 1898. My Dad spent time in UK before landing on Utah Beach Normandy June 6th 1944.

[@davenutt8914]

Oh snap! You’re in my neck of the woods! I went to New Haven and ate at bar twice in the last week, killer pizza!

[@thomasflynn5366]

Downtown New Haven and East Rock park?? You guys like to take your lives in your hands LOL Glad you liked the food anyway,

[@artpauletteiii9970]

Just made the same drive from central CT to Albany a few weeks ago. Really is a very nice scenic ride. Happy you enjoyed CT.

[@lovetotravel4927]

This video was so fun, love all your road trip videos so far. You are always really happy and down to earth! And not sure about the potato pizza lol but loved the look of the cheese one

[@OneCouplesAdventure]

Thanks so much! And the potato pizza was really good 😁

[@Marcie101164]

You found some gems in New Haven! Just found your channel. Looking forward to watching more of your adventures!

[@Susieq0408]

Happy you enjoyed CT and the various, delicious food to be had here!

[@terrydonahue73]

I've lived in both NYC and New Haven. New Haven has it hands down.

[@rickguyer5236]

1st time viewer. You should have spent more time in Ct. There is Yale in New Haven, the 2 casinos, Mystic area including the village/aquarium/seaport, The Maritime Aquarium at Norwalk, The Coast Guard Museum and The Eagle, The Nautilus, Bradley Air Museum, Steamed cheeseburgers, Trolly Museum, USA's Oldest Amusement Park, UCONN Dairy Bar, Gillette Castle--The best time for the nature trails is in the fall when the leaves are turning.

[@beachmom2001]

can't forget Hammonasset either

[@maryanncapece2623]

Hi Stacey and Kev. When I have tea (normally I just drink coffee) I don't use anything other than some sugar. It's very cool they let you go to the back and see the pizza oven. I absolutely would love that med rare burger. Lol. I've not had a potato pizza but would definitely try it. I'm sure you were thirsty from the pizza. I hope you both enjoyed the milkshakes. As always thank you for taking us on your adventures. ❤❤

[@OneCouplesAdventure]

Thanks so much for watching MaryAnn as always. We've got the lovely Albany in the next video, which I'm sure you'll recognise the places we visit really well 😁

[@richardedaniels]

First introduction to your channel, I live in New Haven glad you had a good experience , Come back again sometime.

[@WH-dm1jl]

Hope you enjoyed the ride on the Merritt. Looked like no traffic for you. I had cousins come over from Ireland and we kept having to drive them up and down the Merritt Parkway because they liked the scenery so much. It was fall when all the colors popped on the trees. When you have a chance, watch the documentary Pizza:A Love Story for a New Haven pizza history lesson 🙂

[@cshubs]

My parents were born and raised in New Haven. I'm 50+ and never knew a time without Pepe's, Sally's, and Modern (and Ernie's when we didn't want to wait in line). I've been a pizza snob my whole life! I've never been to Louie's, though.

[@jeffmccarthy9073]

Glad you enjoyed New Haven!

[@MelissaD77]

That Starbucks in Hamden is in a fairly brand new place. A couple of shops up is 'Jersy Mikes' sub shop which was the space for Starbucks previously. The map hadn't updated!!!

[@jholly5747]

Hi Kevin and STACEY I think I would choose a potato pizza over a margarita because you can get a margarita pizza anywhere. I remember seeing Mark Wayne’s video about Lou’s lunch, so you are in good company because Mark Williams was there too. Why is Kevin so obsessed with getting a Slurpee. Just be like Stevie and enjoy an American Dr Pepper instead. Love your video Line looking forward to Albany. Sorry that should’ve said Mark WEINS, you know the ultimate food travel videographer.

[@muggins9389]

The view from East Rock, and the drive to Albany is much more beautiful in September, and October during autumn. You used to be able to drive all the way to the top of East Rock (been a few years since i went there, i used to jog there every day when i was in college.) New Haven has an incredible night life, many night clubs, and bars, but some parts of the city are sketchy, and should be avoided, as the homeless is getting out of hand, and drugs, and crime are bad in those areas. but anyway I hope you guys had a great trip to Ct. come back again sometime, and visit our shoreline and Mystic(my area) and 2 of the best casinos in the world.

[@theknittygal1979]

Welcome to America. It’s pronounced. Ahh-beets next time try Modern in New Haven that’s my fav and Pepe’s is awesome

[@NessieTheCatt]

I grew up a 2 minute walk from here, never realized how spoiled I was untill I left connecticut and learned what other states call pizza, also lous isn't know for being good. Just known for being the first.

[@tristanbowman7098]

Without a watching 1 second of this video, to answer, yes New Haven is the best pizza in America. And no, I'm not a local.

[@hettytravels]

Just so cute….do you use an eSIM or Airalo when you travel? All that Googling takes data, haha. Enjoying your videos tremendously!🇺🇸

[@OneCouplesAdventure]

Thanks so much, and yes, we use an eSIM

[@gigicherries]

Frank Peppe’s is the best pizza!!!

[@lauramcmillan9592]

Too bad about the Starbucks disappointment. If you come through again, we have tons of wonderful local, independent options downtown and near East Rock Park: Willoughby’s, G Cafe, Poppy’s, Pistachio, East Rock Coffee, Coffee Pedaler, Koffee…

[@OneCouplesAdventure]

We don't really have the drinks it's just for the mugs lol

[@TP11458]

Ooooooo potato pizza looks delicious

[@theknittygal1979]

How was the driving I always wonder if the transition is easy

[@OneCouplesAdventure]

Kev doesn't mind it at all. He's found it a nicer drive than back home in the UK. I'm yet to try driving abroad, yet 🤣 i should try it next time

[@sandraprince1742]

Great video that cheese and potato pizza probably tasted like cheese and onion pie

[@OneCouplesAdventure]

It was really good

[@beachmom2001]

I turned on KZbin to watch Kathleen Madigan, highly recommend her by the way. She is a comedian. I saw your video for Albany, NY. Maybe because my daughter goes to the state university there. You saw more of Albany than I have yet to see and I am born and raised in New York State,. New York's Hudson Valley to be exact. I am loving your channel. I next watched the VT video. I go to an Aldi in Bennington, VT because the Aldi in VT sell wine where the ones in NY do not. It was cool to see you go from Albany to Bennington. I think I have passed the road the Mount Equinox on a trip to VT with my dad. Love that you tried New Haven abeetz. If you ever come back, I highly recommend going to Zuppardi's in West Haven. Their homemade sausage for their pizza is out of this world. Also go to Hammonasset Beach State Park in Madison, CT. It is one of my most favorite places in the world about 20 minutes from New Haven if traffic isn't bad. Look forward to watching more of your videos!

[@OneCouplesAdventure]

Thanks so much for watching. We really appreciate it. We'd love to come back one day and get to visit the places we didn't this time 😁

[@rushrule1]

Louie’s lunch is terrible but the pizza in NH is awesome

[@Fishbag61]

The old school way in CT it's pronounced "Ah-beetz" or "ahh-da-beetz"

[@Nick-v7b3l]

It's not "old school". Apizza is the Italian word for "pie". So when someone says "pizza pie", they're saying "pie pie". But in the dialect, we pronounce it "abeetz". Source: I'm born and raised a stone throw from downtown.

[@leonmorone7321]

Guess it's an apizza arestaurant that serves agood pie!!!

[@OneCouplesAdventure]

Why, AThank you for watching 😆

[@PaulImprota]

"Abeetz". No "p".

[@HBCTchannel]

ahh yes Sally's apitss

[@lauramcmillan9592]

Had to giggle at that. :) As a New Havener, it should be a strong “BEETZ” sound, but we appreciate the effort!

[@bobh2042]

Pepe's blows Sally's away (you missed out), but Pepe's in Fairfield, CT, is better than New Haven's.

[@lauramcmillan9592]

Sally’s has the best sauce, though!

[@soccerdude360]

the burgers are really ass, unique though

[@edsmith3461-z7m]

Louis' Lunch claim to the hamburger is BS, "hamburger steak sandwiches" have been advertised in U.S. newspapers from New York to Hawaii since at least the 1890s. White Castle traces the origin of the hamburger to Hamburg, Germany, with its invention by Otto Krause. Some have pointed to a recipe for "Hamburgh sausages" on toasted bread, published in The Art of Cookery Made Plain and Easy by Hannah Glasse in 1758.

[@OneCouplesAdventure]

I'm sure, like anything that claims to be the "1st" from many years ago, there is always going to be a debate on what is actually the original. We just take it with a pinch of salt. We just enjoyed the burger, and if they claim they are the 1st, then so be it. We certainly won't lose any sleep over it if they aren't. It's all just a bit of fun 😁

[@John_Locke_108]

Been in Connecticut my whole life and I hate New Haven pizza. But I grew up in the Northwest corner of the state with traditional pizza. Not this paper thin stuff that's cooked until it's black.

[@denevaflath1397]

Sorry, but the best pizza is not New Haven. NYC yes. Chicago yes. Detroit yes.

[@OneCouplesAdventure]

Suppose it's all down to personal preference

[@rhondapease8516]

New York is a close 2nd to New Haven pizza; a very close 2nd. Frank Pepe's is my favorite New Haven pizza. Deep dish pizza (Chicago) is fine, but I prefer the New Haven or New York pizza.

[@barbarareynolds6983]

Sorry, definitely New Haven!!

[@Nick-v7b3l]

I'd agree, but then we'd both be wrong. New Haven pizza is consistently rated the best in the country. But Modern (Also in New Haven) is the best pizza in CT.

[@rhondapease8516]

@@denevaflath1397 😄 Ah yes, the competition between Modern Pizza, Sally's Pizza and Frank Pepe's Pizza! All great New Haven pizza!
