Fairfield News: Red Mango Ribbon Cutting

Sep 24, 2014 Stephen Krauchick

#Fairfield CT--I love reporting on new businesses opening in our area but I truly enjoy it when their product is as delicious as the Red Mango at 1955 Black Rock Turnpike. I've tried the other high priced yogurt shop on the other side of town but the Red Mango is not just superior in taste and quality but also in price. I'm a meat and potato kind of guy, sucking smoothies really isn't something I do let alone yogurt. The Red Mango really makes healthy delicious. Many items can be sampled before purchase. Stop by, they are in the Shop Rite Plaza. The Oreo yogurt was outstanding and the pomegranate yogurt was soooo refreshing! Tell them we sent ya!…

Look Who’s DoingItLocal!

#sacredheartuniv -- I had the pleasure of meeting with Michael Iannazzi, Vice President of Marketing and Communications at Sacred Heart University and Funda Alp, Executive Director of Public Relations (she took the picture). I was there to discuss having Sacred Heart University students create and run the marketing for DoingItLocal.com! Nobody knows social media like college students and this is a great opportunity for students to learn and use real world applications instead of reading about. It will benefit the students, the school, DoingItLocal and of course our sponsors and viewers! I'll keep you posted on our progress!

My long time friend Don Mastersanti and his son Joe recently opened The Pantry at 384 East Main Street in Ansonia, right next door to Fitzpatrick's. I've known Don and his family since the 80's when Don owned Scorpio Productions, one of the first wedding DJ's in the area. He was one of the best DJ's too; that pride has spilled over into their new restaurant that specializes in gourmet comfort food. You can get anything from a Chef Salad, Meatball sub, Lasagna, Sheppard's Pie and many daily specials. They are open for breakfast and lunch. It brought me back even further because this is the same location that Tanner's Restaurant was located. I worked there in high school…

You may have driven by this place dozens of times and not realized it; or if you did you just thought of it as a place where kids skateboard at like I did. I stopped by and visited Dave Peterson of Rampage Skate Shop at 1625 Railroad Avenue, the place across the street from McDonald's on Fairfield Avenue. I stopped inside the store and was totally impressed on what they had to offer. In addition to the expected skateboards and accessories what was unexpected was the large line of STYLISH shirts, hoodies, hats and shoes they offer. The kind of stuff kids would like to wear back to school this year, and the parent won't cringe that their kid is…

I stopped in to visit our long time friend and sponsor Larry Judge from Interstate Batteries Thursday. I like visiting Larry because he's not only friendly but as a wholesaler of the batteries he is like an early indicator of what is going on to the local economy. As soon as I saw he was in I made a "bee line" as they say to him, not noticing the change of displays around me. I did notice on the counter a display of alkaline AA batteries. I knew this was on Interstate's agenda from previous conversations with him. I said I wished Interstate would come out with cellphone battery since Interstate is so reliable. Larry told me to turn around,…
