Shanghainese restaurant · Princeton Junction
Chicken dumplings are the move and always order the green beans with minced pork.
Hoagie restaurant · Princeton
Don’t eat here sober. Since you’re trashed you will enjoy the Phat Lady cheesesteak with fries and mozz stix stuffed into the sandwich.
Winery · Teramo
Legendary winemaker rents a few rooms on their land in Abruzzo.
Italian Restaurant · Verona
Restaurant and rooms on a farm near Verona making natural wine.
Loc. Castellaro, 2 37032, di Brognoligo-costalunga VR, Italy Get directions
Farmstay · Avellino
A working farm with rooms and animals surrounded by fields of grain. In Irpinia, Campania.
Contrada Camporeale, 157, 83031 Ariano Irpino AV, Italy Get directions
Hotel · Vieques
Other recommended accommodations are the Hix Island House, an eco-friendly place offering yoga classes for non-guests.
Hotel · Vieques
There are lots of options for accommodations in Vieques, in a variety of price ranges. Let me just get this out of the way: there is a W on the island. It is the most popular but also the most soulless place to stay. There is nothing about the place that is unique to Vieques, the owner and much of the staff is foreign, and the pancakes are awful. Skip it in favor of a house rental. We use HomeAway and this trip stayed at Quinta Jacaranda, a villa with 3 bedrooms, a pool, sweeping views, fluffy towels, snorkel gear, and more at a third of the cost of what we would have paid for 2 standard rooms at the W.
Kebab Shop · Hocapasa
This grilled meat palace is at the entrance of Hocapaşa Sokak. Go for the cağ kebabı, skewered meat cut from a horizontal spit.
