Seems Connecticut can more than hold its own when it comes to serving up a good sandwich. The fried cod fish at Cove Fish Market in Stonington, the Hot Lobster Roll at Abbott's Lobster In the Rough in Noank and the Grilled Lobster and Cheese sandwich at Restaurant Bricco in West Hartford were all featured in an article headlined "The Best Sandwiches in America" in the March issue of Esquire.

"Wash it down with a glass of prosecco. You'll feel like you're celebrating," the author writes of the Bricco sandwich.

"When a fish starts its morning in the ocean and ends up in a deep-fryer that afternoon, the result is reliably tasty," the articles says in describing the Cove Fish Market's winning sandwich.
