Opposite the Old Campus, on Chapel Street, in New Haven, Connecticut; first settled by Native Americans before memory or record; planted by Puritans in 1638; home to Roger Sherman throughout the War of Independence; the Gaius F. Warner mansion by Henry Austin in 1860; Carll's Opera House in 1880; the Republican League club in 1884; the Hyperion theatre in 1887; the Union League club by Richard Williams in 1903; the Roger Sherman Theater in 1926; a succession of French fine dining restaurants beginning in 1977 that continues today… although the Roger Sherman house is no longer standing, its foundation endures.
"On a sailing of the luxurious M/S Regatta, the star chef croons in a karaoke contest, plucks wild bay laurel from a roadside bush, eats flaky Greek pastry and teaches spectacular recipes inspired by his Italian shore excursions."
