AC Captain's Profile
Atlantic City recommendations
Another vote for tony's. Simple but good red sauce italian kind of place. In my opinion best pizza in AC as well.

Best Sushi in Monmouth?- Let's hear your opinion
+1 for Kazu. Small quaint place with great rice and nice selection of hard to find fish. This past week we had madai.
An Objective Look at Nicholas
The server or captain could not have have been attentive. As the server your are the last set of eyes to see what is being served. Your are the last line of defense to make sure the product is up to industry standards. Then when you clear that particular course and see that only one bite was taken you should ask yourself why. Further inspection would reveal the bad eggs. Attention to detail is a huge part of the hospitatality business and at the level of Nicholas it should be a priority.
NJ Chowhound needs help for tonight.
I am in town for a family gathering and have no plans for this evening. We are staying close to intersection of 35 and 71. I would appreciate if anyone could offer any suggestions for tonight in the down town area or close to our location, we will be taking a taxi. Also because it's a sunday I was kind of hoping for a place that will still have a crowd later in the evening. We probally won't get their until 8:30 or 9:00. Had Parkside in mind but not sure if open on sundays.
Thanks in advance

Los Angeles Hound in Toms River/Manchester for Mothers Day?
Not much in that area. How far are you willing to travel?
Ruby's Taco Truck Ocean County
This taco truck was located on rt.9 south in Forked River in a parking lot next to the Forked River Freezer. Does anyone have any info as to where they are located now or if still in business at all. I really hope they're somewhere in the area...
Thanks in advance
Anniversary Dinner at Bistro 44 tonight
Happy Anniversary and happy to hear you enjoyed your evening.
need a special restaurant--money is no object
Second to elements in Princeton. If money is no object definetly sit at the chef's table in the kitchen. If you check out the sous chef's blog on their website you will get an idea of some the cutting edge things they're doing with food. Really very impressive and the head chef always brings in special items to be served at the chef's tasting. Santa Barbara Spot prawns, shima aji, kindai, real wagyu from kobe and mangalitsa pig are a few examples of courses that have served.
Good luck and have fun wherever you go, it sounds like you're in for a great night.
Good bye, Manhattan Steakhouse.
I'll miss it as well joonjoon. Food and service were always fantastic each and every visit. Truly sad to see it go.
Where to eat in AC?
I've been there a half dozen times and have always loved it. I think it's one of those places where you have to know what to order.
Congratulations to Chef Erik of Bistro 44
Congrats!!! It was really cool to see him on the show. Thank you very much for the heads up bgut my wife and I would have been very upset if we had missed it.
Friday Night : Dinner for two friends who are chows but haven't chatted in a long time, Exit 109-82 on the parkway.
Just off 105 is Sawa. I have not been there in 3 or 4 years but I do remember having good sushi there.

"There is plenty in Toms River"
Please tell me where I've been searching for years!
Bolognese sauce
If you have not been to Stella Marina definetly give their bolognese a try. In my opinion it's their best pasta option. They serve theirs with fresh pappardelle and a dollop of marscapone. The marscapone starts to melt into the pasta as you eat it giving it a certain creaminess I think your DH is looking for.
2010 Must Try List
Great list. Hope you enjoyed Lorena's I can't wait to get there.
I think I have to add Ama to my list, so many places to try in 2010.
2010 Must Try List
My top three for the year are:
Lorena's in Maplewood
Trinity in Keyport
Uproot in Warren
I'm sure there's more but that's all I have for now.
Oh I hope elements is on most of your lists since only a handful of chowhounders have been there.
Spice Market, worth going?
Thank you for the suggestion, I have been JoJo and was hoping to try something new. I was not particularly seeking out a Jean-Georges location it was just a factor in deciding on wether or not to go to Spice Market or continue looking. I think my real restraint is my time issue, after ten. Thanks again though.
Could you tell some of the hits that you enjoyed in the past from S.M.
Thanks again
Spice Market, worth going?
Thank you that's reassuring. The more I research it the better spice market appears. When I searched S.M. on this site most people's comments were that it was touristy without much mention of the food. But the thought of J.G. keeps lingering in my head and I feel it has to be good.
Spice Market, worth going?
Need a place for this sunday night for ten o'lock or later. It could be walk-in or reservation. I know it's Valentine's day but I'm hoping for a place that is usually open later. I was hoping for a rec thas has really good to great food but not fine dining. Any cuisine is fine due to the late night restriction, but would like entree's under $30. Right now we have a res at Spice Market and I'm just not feeling it. I've never been there so if anyone has anything positive to report back I would love to hear that too.
Thanks in advance any advice is appreciated.
Where to eat in AC?
If you don't want to stray too far from the Taj Mahal, you could try IL Mulino. Two sided restaurant one being casual and other more upscale. I don't have the link but if you search their AC location you will be able to find a menu for both sides.
Good Luck and Happy Birthday
Valentines Day help PLEASE :)

I'v been meaning to try Brandl's oyster special. Have you tried it? Any feedback?
Stella's is pretty basic only one selection, usually blue points. Usual suspects for sides.
