I’ll Make You Drool In Seconds With These Top Jersey Restaurants
I’ve been living in New Jersey (known as the garden state) for nearly 7 years now. I remember first coming to New Jersey from my hometown Philadelphia, Pennsylvania as a newbie seeing nothing but the southern side of things. All it takes is one glance to see tons of farms filled with cows, chickens, and goats everywhere. I didn’t know much about the best food places and where to really eat. The food didn’t taste the greatest compared to delicious city food. I went from living in a big city filled with eateries to living in a tiny town with minimum food selections.

Audacious Onyx
Those who see Chef Devon remember him. His figure denotes strength, but is gilded by the pleasing aspect of a gourmand. His eyes are deep set, the face tilting frequently to focus a ready attention - all framed by a long tumble of lite brown hair under an improbable and ever-present flat cap. The trimmings of a lively eccentric.

When Duke's Rocked My BBQ World
I brake for BBQ. I travel for BBQ. I’ve been known to plan vacation days around the search for BBQ. I’ve eaten BBQ from the Carolinas and Tennessee to St. Louis and throughout Texas. You get the idea. Yet, never in my wildest dreams did I think I’d find some of the best BBQ I’ve ever eaten just a 10-minute walk from my front door.

Hospitali-Thai
Before I moved to my current location, I lived in Jackson, Mississippi. Jackson is primarily known for being the capital of Mississippi and a rather small city. However, what many people don't realize is that Jackson is a heck of a food town. Although they face the usual challenges opening their doors, small, independent restaurants flourish, by and large. Along with the usual Southern fare, there are a number of other cuisines to be had. Interestingly enough, that includes some of the best Thai food I've had in any city (disclaimer: I have not yet managed to travel to Thailand, so this claim is made only in comparison to Thai food I've had across the US).

Go Bananas for Monkey Business
Four words: Breakfast Served All Day. Wait, it gets better. That breakfast is grown, cooked, and served by at risk young adults. All money spent there goes right back to supporting them.

EAT EAT says the little candle
With a restaurant that goes by the name commonwealth, their food is not so common. The riches of endless flavors with new dishes caters to anyone with fine taste. If burritos are your only thing, this may not be the place for you, but still recommended to try. The place offers the experience to share with others, giving you the chance to try a little bit of everything and still feeling full at the end. It's the higher experince of sharing appetizers. The variety of fish, meats, veggies, and everything in between is offered on the daily, with new additions every other week. The hidden gem is found in the streets of Burbank, and let me tell you there’s a reason it’s small and on the corner. If there was more word on this place there would be no room for all us! It’s secret placing and one way windows allow for only those have the inside scoop to join. The family oriented vibe allows for a community of people that come in, creating regulars catching up with one another.

10 Things I Love About You. Third Place in Eat Local Challenge.
Dear Padella Shoreditch, It's Marcel, your host. From the bottom of my heart, thank you. Either if it's for allowing me to meet some of my favorite humans or being surrounded by passion and hard work every day. You make my belly laugh, but you also make sure to keep it full.

Ban Ban Asian Bistro
I prefer a restaurant with different flavors. What I mean by different flavors is a variety of dishes from many countries. I am aware that there are restaurants like that out there, but not many I have come across. When I go to Chinese buffets, there would be the usual Chinese dishes, a few selections of Sushi, and even fewer selections of American food. Sure, I enjoy eating at a Chinese buffet on a Saturday night. However, I get bored with the same dishes I see every single time I dine at one. It has been that way for many years.

Saving the Eateries We Love -- How One Man Kept the Restaurants in His Community Alive During Quarantine
What if your favorite restaurant closed for good? What if there was something you could do to prevent that, even while everyone was telling you it was impossible? Rick Clark of Spokane, Washington set out with a mission to save as many restaurants as he could and he grew a humongous team to help him. In the process, Spokane Quaranteam has raised money to support many local and not so local restaurants and businesses.

Our Hometown Go-To Eatery
I have lived in the small town of Green River, Wyoming off and on since 1966. The building where The Hitching Post Restaurant is now located has been there longer than that. I don't ever remember not seeing it as we drove into town from the east.

Bar Hygge
Living down the street from Bar Hygge is a plus, but even if I didn't, I would still be an avid proponent of it. Located on the quieter side of Fairmount Avenue nestled between the Philadelphia Museum of Art and Broad street, it sits perfect walking distance from Center City. From the first moment walking in, you get the sense that this is a family owned and operated business. From the soft fabrics used in decorating the couches, to the main wall in the dining room, that is made of real disassembled oak barrels, to the side dining room that has all sorts of mismatched and charming decorations mainly window pains. It is a place that it is hard not to feel at home in. The lighting is soft and inviting and the beer is ever changing of course, because they not only know food, they are a brewery as well. The food is centered in fresh ingredients and on pushing the boundaries in European centered flavors with a strong American influence. For a healthy amount of sharing options, the build your own board (with meats, cheeses, specialty dishes or veggies) is a great family style starting place because there is always something on for everyone.

Ring the King
Every state has its stereotypes and reputations, and Indiana is no different in that regard. As a native Hoosier, I can attest to a lot of the reputation being accurate as there are definitely plenty of cornfields, a shockingly low cost of living, and a fondness for enormous pork tenderloin sandwiches. Besides all of that, there is one Indiana restaurant franchise that started as a single local eatery that tends to send any Indiana resident into a little tizzy over the idea of that restaurant being dinner for the evening. Even though I am now living in another state, the Hoosier blood bleeds as red as the phenomenal pizza sauce you can find on pizzas made by Pizza King, which happens to be the best pizza place in the entire Midwest.
