Donut shops with made to order little treats are the next trendiest thing since the FroYo fad. They’re cute, they’re fun, they’re photogenic, but honestly, they aren’t that unique from one another. The Jersey Shore has over a handful of these hole-in-the-wall shops and since they’re all the rage, we’ve made it a priority … More Donut Think I’m Impressed
Our first impression of Skratch, was that it was reminiscent of the previous restaurants that once occupied the space. It had a similar layout and comparable tables, but more of an artsy ambience, I suppose. Just a couple of months ago, it was Redemption. Before that, it was Bank on Mattison. Before that, it was … More Skratch – Asbury Park, New Jersey
Trying to conquer the Philly foodie scene in about 24 hours, while also incorporating birthday bar hopping, is quite an overwhelming challenge to take on. With a food and drink list the length of a child’s Christmas wishes, we knew that realistically, we would just have to come back again. On the way to the … More Philly Phoodies, a 24 hour experience
Every time we have tried to eat at this popular brunch spot, the line has been out the door and around the corner. We finally had the patience to wait, because we just had to see what the hype was all about!

We were happy to find out about this Vietnamese restaurant opening up nearby because we had been craving the flavors ever since we first tried it in Vermont about two years ago. We ordered Pho (prounced “Phuh”), some cold veggie shrimp rolls wrapped in rice paper, and an interesting combination of meats, veggies, and a … More Pho Tastic – Brick, New Jersey
I started writing this blog post on my phone, the second I walked into Plaza Tapatia, because I was immediately impressed. I was captivated upon opening the door because I felt as if we had actually walked into Mexico, the country itself, and not just a Mexican restaurant. Between the decor, the lighting, and the … More Plaza Tapatia – Asbury Park, New Jersey
Being Jewish, Natalie and I have been to more kosher delis than we could ever count. Most of the time though, they are nothing special and we leave needing an IV of water to balance out the weeks worth of sodium we’d just consumed in one lunch. Although this wasn’t our first, or second, or … More Fred & Murry’s Kosher Deli – Freehold, New Jersey
I first fell in love with the Starbucks brand when I discovered their iced coffee (iced coffee in general, though) in my earlier high school years. My jappy cousins in Boca Raton would rant and rave about their favorite go-to drink- hazelnut iced coffee- and every year or so when I was down south visiting, … More An Ex Barista’s Honest Review of Starbucks
Since its grand opening about a year ago, we have frequented the Asbury Festhalle & Biergarten about a dozen times. We’ve even waited outside in the cold on various occasions for a chance to get into this place, due to it’s overwhelming popularity. Designed to resemble a German bar/restaurant, this awesome hangout spot serves all … More Asbury Festhalle and Biergarten – Asbury Park, New Jersey
Right before our trip overseas, we went to Shloka Indian Restaurant (formally Ginger) in Freehold. With new ownership and new menu options, we had new expectations. The owner takes pride in using local ingredients and coming up with unique spice combinations. They offer a lunch buffet (like most Indian restaurants), which allows newbies and those … More Shloka – Freehold, New Jersey
