Revolution in Morristown

Really liked the beer selection at Revolution in Morristown especially the mango beer (never thought I would like that one). Pleasantly pleased with the food selection which had excellent chips and potato salad. Burger and fish and chips hit the spot.

Gregorio's in Chatham

Updated 6/17/17 - If the crab cake is on the Specials menu get it; one of the best I have had. The baby spinach salad was fresh with a light dressing.  I had to get Leslie's favorite pistaccio crusted salmon and that dish is really strong.

We went to highly recommended Gregorio's Restaurant in Chatham and we were not disappointed.  Leslie's pistacio crusted salmon was the best salmon dish she has had to date (which is saying a lot because she gets salmon all the time).  Our beet and apple salad was crisp and very good while my seafood ravioli hit the spot.  Topped it all off with a homemade special apple dessert in a very light dough and gelato.  We will go back!  BYOB made it reasonable.

UPDATED 12/4/16: NFL made us go back to Gregorios this weekend and we had another strong meal there. We got the evening started at Twin Elephant Brewing Company in Chatham which is brutal to find but Don and I like the beers which were well brewed and not overwhelming. That place needs a sign and some light over the doors but nice vibe once you get inside.  

At Gregorios, NFL got her usual and I had the other salmon dish which was good but the pistachio crusted salmon is just better.  Ann had the pork tenderloins which she was nice enough to share and I really liked that dish.  Don went with the lasagna which was very good. The nutella and banana crepe was good but I really did not have the room (of course Ann made room and topped it off with a piece of bread which is so Ann-like)! All in all very fun night.

In October, 2017 we went back and got our usual but also tried a Special ravioli as an appetizer.  The beef ravioli was strong especially with one of my favorite crab cakes.

Edison, nj Harold's

A strange place for a jewish deli but Harold's NY Deli in Edison, NJ was an excellent side trip for lunch this Saturday.  The size of the sandwiches is just ridiculous and the potato pancake can feed a small army.

Green Brook, NJ

Fun Sunday early dinner at Capital Tap and Grill.  Great beer selections on tap and the food was pretty good too.  Leslie 's warm fried goat cheese salad with chicken was very good and my pizza hit the spot with the 4 beer flight.

Cranford, nj

A new entry to my favorite nj restaurants is A Toute Heure in Cranford. Good service, sat us right away and the food was really interesting. Started with great warm bread and walnut butter.  Appetizers were great with Leslie having the sweet potato and I had the braised bacon and shrimp which was awesome.  The main courses were NJ Scallops and my pulled beef pot pie that was as good as it looked.  

Top restaurants in nj (that I have been to)

410 Bank Street - Cape May

Serenade -Chatham

Pluckemin Inn - 

Mohegan Sun and Old Saybrook Ct.

Fun weekend of golf, comedy and eating this past weekend at Mohegan Sun Casino and Fresh Salt in Old Saybrook.
At Michael Jordan's pub we had an excellent mozzarella, tomato and balsamic vinegar drizzled flat bread.

Then my food guru Coach Frady recommended Fresh Salt restaurant in Old Saybrook, CT.  I could not have been more thrilled with the Grilled cheese sandwich with lobster and havarti. Comes with house made chips. Amazing! Paired great with our bloody mary for early lunch.  Leslie had an excellent turkey sandwich on walnut and raisin bread.  Next time we have to find a way to get a Sunday brunch there.

Denville, nj

Enjoyed Thatcher McGees  which is an Irish pub in Denville, NJ after golf with my boys Connor and Tyler at Flanders Valley.  Irish fish bites with boom boom sauce were really excellent and the bar was pretty cool.
