Branch Brook Park is a great place to relax on the beautiful grass or a quiet walk around the park on the new rubberized walkways. Its a great place for one to meditate on life while gazing at the beautiful trees to absorb all that nature has to offer.

You find authentic food dishes as if you were in Portugal. Friendly and safe just off the train at Penn Station travel down Ferry Street. Or by car to get to some of the hidden treasures (restaurants) off Ferry St.
