<p>After my D is settled tomorrow and we are ready to leave for the long ride home, we wanted to check out the mall in Hartford and have dinner somewhere too.</p>
<p>Can someone tell us the name of the mall and how to get there from campus?</p>
<p>How bout a rec for a good place to eat in Hartford( we had Timothy's last time, it was great food, but want to try something else)</p>
<p>Thanks</p>
<p>WestFarms- its a great mall! take 84-W, and it will be about 10 minutes. i dont remember the exit number, but there will be big signs for the Mall/Corbins Corner.</p>
<p>hartford/west hartford has some great restaurants; what kind of food do you like?</p>
<p>Try the Trumbull Kitchen, it is great and young and hip and your D will love it. The Admissions Office has directions printed up for students (and prospective students!) to take.</p>
<p>You can get to mall by going straight down New Britain Avenue directly from campus. Takes about 10-15 minutes but avoids highways. Once you are at the mall, you are only minutes from West Hartford shopping (fun) and good restaurants (many).</p>
<p>convocation's finally done with! yay!! </p>
<p>i've been here for like 3 weeks or more already so it didn't really feel as exciting as it would have otherwise been. I could see the overwhelmed faces of just arrived '10ers though. The day was fun overall!</p>
<p>how was it for you, lulitzee? And what dorm's your d in?</p>
<p>Thanks for all the directions to the mall and suggestions for dinner.</p>
<p>we ended up going to Chicago Pizza Uno, Olive Garden was too long of a wait. It was pretty good.</p>
<p>The convocation was a good experience, perfect weather!</p>
<p>My d is happy so far. She has called us a few times and she likes it alot, nice roomate and good teachers.</p>
<p>to aaron: I'm glad your happy at Trinity too. Good Luck with everything this semester!</p>
