The name makes sense to me, seeing as how Connecticut is world famous for its muffins.

Can someone please confirm if this was a Chase or a Citibank? I need it for the research on my new book entitled “Boring Shit I do When I’m Supposed to be Working”.
This site is soooo over.
7:16, you are right. it was Chase, not Citi.
BROWNSTONER DON’T KNOW NOTHING BECAUSE IT WAS A CHASE MORTGAGE STORE FRONT & THE MUFFIN MAN IS A WOMAN.
It was definitely a Chase Mortgage office, not Citibank.
