> New England's contribution to cuisine is in its non-chain seafood places. I don't even know why we HAVE places like The Red Lobster here. Surely they don't ever get any customers. The food tastes about like it does everywhere else, but local seafood places have the best seafood in the universe. New England's lobster, clams, and various fish/clam/seafood chowders are unmatched. Then there's Boston, which is famous for, among other things, baked beans. The pride of New England as far as crops are concerned are, among other things, potatoes, Macintosh apples, and blueberries. Basically, fast food isn't particularly New England's forte, which is not a bad thing.

Somehow, my mental image of where RinkWorks is on the map of USA puts it somewhere on the west coast. I realize this must be thoroughly wrong. Can somebody please give me correct location (city) and maybe also point me to a good online map so I can imprint it into my mind?
