Lunch at Nora's avenel street, avenel. Food okay, service okay, pricing okay it is an okay place. Very small footprint so it gets crowded quickly. Parking is street parking - can be a pain in the.....

D'Italia

Had a very nice lunch. California cheese steak with steak fries something I really like but the lunch menu is reasonable from a price and quantity standpoint. I can endorse the lunch menu.

Torrino 2

Located off Main St. Metuchen I can recommend it. Service was excellent with out being over bearing. Food was excellent and served with proper pace. I enjoyed the balsamic vinaigrette on greens and then ravs with a bolognesse. They seemed to be prepared in house not a box brand.

Prices were fair for the fare and is a byob for the wine drinkers out there. Deserts were predictable but by then who cared. Not responsible for spelling errors lol

White House Restaurant

If you want retro this is the place for you. Formica everywhere. Reasonable prices, good size portions and fair prices. Diner menu but not a diner. Plenty of waitresses, good service seems the norm not the exception.

French dip, fries, slaw, soup and drink under $9. It was excellent. Had lentil soup all very good.

4 W. Camden Ave
Moorestown, NJ 08057

You need to be down by exit 4 on the turnpike.

Cpi

DD had a 3% increase in coffee prices effective yesterday where I usually get mine. Still do not understand why food and fuel are not included in the CPI by the Federal Reserve? Would seem that food and fuel would be key inflation indicators.

Tarentella's

Clark, NJ, good value, an okay wine list & bar. Portions are good size. Layout is more dinerish then classic italian resturant. Service was good but again more diner then fine dining.

Experience was good and worth the prices

Driving

People have no clue as to how to drive when near or approaching a funeral procession. The way some people drive makes you think that they want to be the star attraction in a funeral soon.

Inflation

4.63 for a bagel, coffee and a ledger from 7 11. The Federal Reserve says core inflation is near zero. Nothing is more core then food and fuel think the system maybe flawed.

5 Guys

What a nice hamburger. They cook the burger after you order it, what a unique concept. French fries were really good. All the trimming are availible including grilled onions. Hot dogs are on the menu. Not cheap but good value. Drinks standard coke cola products and refills included.

As I travel I will try 5 guys again

Mama mia's

MAma Mia's BYOB wood ave linden
Service was not professional at all. Prices were below the norm by 5 - 10%. Pasta Fagolie was more beef and pasta okay but not what I expected
Gnoochi bolognaise was okay
Joe seemed to enjoy chicken murphy
Rae raved about her pasta and broccoli. LJ seemed neutral about ravs.
I have had their pizza and subs both good but cannot at this time recommend as a dining stop.

Stefano's

Went to model train show in edison yesterday with my wife and the Marinello. So where do you go for dinner at 6 with 4 grandkids? Olive Garden in Pistcaway, we arrive at 615 and are now looking at a 40 minute wait. What to do? Well we got lucky. Stefano's brick oven pizza was there looking right at us.
BYOB seats maybe 50. It was good and reasonable. Bread was different almost like a sourdough (baked on site), had a pizza which was very tasty, pasta fagoli was hearty, portions were good size, reasonable prices and good service. What a great find we will be coming back. I would recommend it.

I must admit that I never was very lucky at Lucas in Edison. Last night was the exception service was outstanding, oysters were great and had a shrimp dish that was very good. Enjoyable night and not too expensive

i just enjoy the food. BYOB 
 
They have a shrimp and scallop over pasta which I really enjoy. The pasta fagoli (JV really likes it) soup is excellent.
 
JV had to go to the potty - he will be three in two week- before he left the table he told us all not to touch his soup. Smart kid he knows me already (lol).
 
Plus the specials are usually interesting but not too crazy or over the top. Last night Geneen and Grant had Mushroom ravioli with Bolognese Sauce which they seemed to enjoy.

Manor

We went to the manor in west orange for our 41st wedding anniversary. The sunday brunch was as always plentiful. As I get older I eat less and less so this huge buffet is wasted on me.
The lamb was excellant and the cold sea foods (shrimp oysters sushi lox etc.) were very excellant also, but I just ran out of steam. In my 30s I could eat all day and come back for more but at 65 I no longer can or want to.
The desert alcove as always is so tempting but.......

Went to Cubby's in Hackensack last night. No recession here. A line to get in when we left. Heart healthy no way. Ribs, pulled pork, steak sandwiches, and chicken. Hot dogs all the way.

My kind of place

Scortino's

If you go to a resturant noted for its pizza then you should have pizza. I did not pasta fagole soup was tomatoe soup with pasta and beans. Bread was good. Garlic shrimp was boring. My wife had an italian combo which she said was okay.
Servers were too young. They would have rather been anywhere else. Serving was not what they wanted to do on a Saturday night.
The portion size was good. The salad was excellent.
We had good company and the place was full.
