The last few weeks we tried a new restaurant in Florham Park (Lucco's) and a old favorite in Jockey Hollow in Morristown.  Lucco's was good but the loudness factor was tough.  Have to say Don's lasagne was one of the most different presentations ever and was very good. My shrimp dish was good and the salads were excellent. Jockey Hollow does some things different as well such as the pasta dish with an egg in the middle.

Starting with my beer brewing days back in Basking Ridge I have always been a big fan of good beers.  My taste has evolved from bringing Coors (it was a very good beer back then) back from Denver when you could not buy it here in the East to the strong micro-beers of today. However, if you are looking for Porters or Stouts you are on the wrong page.  I am a Lager, IPA, APA, Ales and Pilsner kind of guy.  Most recently I have enjoyed some really good New Jersey beers which have blossomed into some of the best beers you can get.  Here is a list of my current beers for you to try:

Kane (NJ) Brewing - Head High IPA - especially good on draft.
Carton Brewing - 077XX IDIPA - go to the brewery in Atlantic Highlands, NJ
Goose Island IPA
Cape May Brewery - Coastal Evacuation Double IPA
River Horse Hippotizing IPA and their Lager
Ballast Point - Sculpin IPA
Stella Artois
Sierra Nevada
Dogfish Head 60 minute
Boulder Brewing Mojo IPA
Omnibroue - La Fin Du Monde - Go to mont tremblant and have on tap

Old Favorites:
Samuel Adams Boston Lager


Summer:
Blue Moon
Bud Light Lime/Orange
Landshark
Shock Top


Try Kane Party Wave, Sneaky box, Overhead
Treehouse brewery (Mass.)
Alchemist Heady Topper
Russian River Pliny the Younger
Magnify Brewery
Jughandle Brewery

We went to two breweries in Nashville, namely Yazoo Brewery and Bearded Iris.  I liked the beers at Bearded Iris a little better.
Also sipped some good local beers such as Blackhorse IPA and Jackalope Pale Ale.

Although not a beer I loved the red wine slushy and the unbelievable selection of Whisky's and moonshine at Tennessee Weekend including Salted Caramel, Creme brule Whisky.  Really unusual and we loved the free shots.
