Millburn and Jersey City

The last two weekends have been food gold mines with two restaurants that are really tough to get into. The first restaurant was Common Lot in Millburn.  Everything we had was fresh and tasted great. Most interesting was the steak which was not like a steakhouse but really a great taste.Sunday we got into Battello... Continue Reading →

Annapolis, Maryland

Great long weekend in Annapolis with the Scott's who were great hosts. We got a late lunch at Mason's lobster roll where Leslie had the excellent lobster BLT with great bacon while I had the crab roll (not so surprisingly crab was the theme this weekend).We then went with some drinks and appetizers at the...

Tonight... Continue Reading →

New York City

We started with a shrimp flat bread with gruyere cheese.  Leslie's Cod was really light and a perfect combo with the mashed potatoes.  My Bronzino was also light and had some nice drizzle and rub on...
