One Whiff of This Dive's Specialty Pizza Made YouTube-Famous Foodie Daym Drops "Weak In the Knees"

If we're ever looking for an honest restaurant recommendation, we know *exactly* who to go to -- our buddy and YouTube-famous food reviewer, Daym Drops, of course!

And in honor of his new book, "Eating Across America" -- which takes you on a delicious tour of Daym's favorite food trucks, street food and dishes in each state -- we asked him to show us his go-to dives in his home state of Connecticut.

So without further ado, here’s where to go (and what to order!) if you find yourself in the Constitution State!

Daym's Top Pick: Drumettes with Mango Habanero Sauce
