FairfieldCountyFoodie shares hers on her blog post, which she allowed us to reproduce. Her winners are: 

1. Ramen at Kawa Ni, Westport: "I am thrilled that it is of such high caliber that I don’t need to schlep to NYC for a good bowl of Ramen anymore."

2. Bone Marrow at Le Farm, Westport: "This may be my pick for my last bite before I die. The luxurious, creamy and rich marrow is simply divine on toast."

3. Paella at Basso Bistro, Norwalk: "Chef Donzelli’s paella is the best I have had in a long time."

4. Haleem at Royal Guard Fish & Chips, Norwalk: "Royal Guard has become my family’s favorite go-to place in the last year. You must try their haleem – a dish typically prepared by Muslims during Ramadan and widely popular through Pakistan, Bangladesh, and Hydrabad India. It is a creamy smooth dish prepared by cooking ground meat and grains for hours and hours."

5. Drunken Noodles at Thai Spice, Norwalk: "I always ask for the spicy version and then I can’t stop eating as I perspire and cry from the spice-level! Maybe I just like to torture myself … but it's so worth it."

6. Kati rolls at Kati ‘n More, Stamford: "The kati rolls are packed with flavor and offered with many variations of fillings."

7. Heat Wave Lobster Roll at Lobster Craft, Darien: "Simply irresistible. I am so glad that Captain Mike opened a brick-and-mortar location in Darien because now I don’t need to chase his truck all over Fairfield County anymore."

8. Tacos at Rincon, Norwalk:  "This stuff makes me feel good. It feels right… just right!  And while you are at it…. just take in their beans and rice."

9. Bouillabaisse made by Chef Matt Storch of Match, Norwalk." I tried it at a cooking class at Clarke Kitchen in South Norwalk. It was fragrant, it was sophisticated, it tasted like the ocean … it was divine."

10. Champagne Mousse Cake at Versailles Bakery & Cafe, Greenwich: "I find myself ordering this cake every time I need to buy a sweet treat for someone special. I love the light, airy consistency and the incredibly delicate flavor."
