Whether it is the musky old chairs or the very experienced hands of Phil's barbers that make this place so special, is a constant matter of debate among the clientele. What is certain is that Phil's, located right next to another New Haven staples, Naples PIzza, is a classic place for the boys and men of the Blue to stop in and get their hair cut. The service is reminiscent of old movies, with some barbers eschewing scissors and cutting hair with old-fashioned razors, instead. While this may sound dangerous, it is not in the least so when it is done by people as experienced as the barbers at Phil's. And besides, it is much better for the hair.
If you need to have your hair cut in New Haven, this is the place to go. The one drawback is that hairstyles verge towards the conservative.

More
This dental group is definitely child centered. The waiting room has a television with children's programing, a lego table and many toys. The hygentist is very creative and gentle with the children. She even tells the children that she cleans their favorite character's teeth and makes it seem safe and comfortable for the child. The only negative is that there is usually a long wait to get an appointment.

When Geraldine's was on Church Street, she was right across from my office. It was one of my favorite pick me ups to stop in on my lunch hour and buy a bouquet - sometimes for a friend, sometimes for myself. The store smelled great, there were tchotchkies to poke at, and you could see some of the gorgeous centerpieces, etc. she was preparing for events. She does great work! My favorite benchmark for a florist - tell them what you want to spend and have them surprise you. Her $10-$20 carry out bouquets are gorgeous and varied.

Clark's is just about what you'd expect from a diner-type restaurant. It's open, with a center island where they make both the food and also shakes. It's very closeby to many things on Whitney avenue, so it's a convenient eatery for many. The "restaurant" side of Clark's serves mainly hot plates and pizza while the "dairy" wide is pretty much devoted to sandwiches and (of course) ice cream, which they are more known for. The food is excellent and portions plentiful for the money you pay.

Great Wall of China (on Whitney) has great fish; I even make sushi out of it. They have deliveries M, Th, F around 2 pm. The only problem is that a lot of the fish is labeled only in Chinese, but if you know what fish look like, you'll be fine. They don't filet.

More
As more and more employers are requiring advanced degrees, Gateway offers more and more solutions.
Gateway is a traditional 2-year college which hosts a lot of degree opportunities. They also support adult learning, meaning they have after hours classes for those who are parents or who may work during the day.
They have recently started offering some of their classes online, in attempt to become more accessible for those who find it easier to attend online rather than in a classroom.
They offer general studies degrees where a student can combine their own interests into a fully accredited degree of their choosing.
Gateway has become extremely popular in the last few years, so register for classes early to avoid disappointment.
