    Since I just got back from NJ. Pimping some of the things I had and will miss severely.



    Though have a dozen bagels to split



    Weirdest location but amazing chocolate



    Really cool joint. Makes lots of empanadas.



    Another pretty weird joint, lighting was super bad, but food was excellent.



    This place is so good. It's in princeton so it's annoying. Princeton can be nice at times, but people in Princeton are usually the worst.



    Probably the biggest upset for me, food was solid but not spectacular.

    And of course diners!!!!! And malls.

    Picked up this bad boy last week for 27 bucks



    As a sworn hater of limited mouse space, I'm very glad that I have the Logitech Performance Mouse MX so it tracks 100% on the glass surface. Now I just need to neaten up the area around my desk (moving boxes primarily) to finish my man corner eventually I'll have my laptop powering my computer but this will do for now. The cool but totally unnecessary feature in this desk, it comes with a power supply in it that doubles as a USB hub. I like it cause I can kill my monitor and speakers now easily.

    This is a 3 parter, and why I wish I didn't live where I did and further away in the east, west or south and i'd like New England a little more.



    First off, this place is awesome. Food is exceptional. Even if it isn't "true' BBQ, they stick to asimple style and their execution is exceptional and it's amazing.

    Second this



    Always a total treat when I get it.

    Last is one I can't really link to is Hill Farmstead, former Ratebeer best brewery in the world, last year rated number 2. Yeah, they're that good, their IIPA named Abner is a treat. It's every bit as amazing as Heady Topper, Sculpin, Pliny, or any other of the great IIPAs.

    Sosecond the loving of Hill Farmstead. I've now had at least 5 of their ales (can't remember if it's 5 or 6)

    Also Stone's Enjoy by Pi day is pretty awesome. The bottle is the same as the other Enjoy Bys but there's a simple Pi symbol on the neck. Really cool and classy.

    This is going to be a long post about my weekend back at home. No pictures. Just a lengthy post.

    To start things off, on the trip down I planned a minor detour from the GSP to the Garden State Plaza in Paramus. There was a specific reason for this. It was to get Shake Shack. Got myself a burger, cheese fries, girlfriend got a hotdog, regular fries and shakes. So I'll discuss it from worst to best. Fries are mediocre. Cooked very well, but crinkle cut, so crunchy, but it's pressed potatoes. So eh. I wish they did fresh cut fries like Five Guys. Next up the shakes, it was fantastic. Absolutely rocked. The cheese sauce was exceptional. But the BUrger. Holy Crap the burger. It was juicy on a potato roll, great ratio of toppings, high quality bacon. Just a fantastic burger.

    The mall though, super big and it was jam packed, we were there at like 2 on a Friday which given a bunch of schools were still closed from the snow the day before, I'm guessing it was busier than normal as the roads weren't terrible, I'm guessing they wanted more time to work on them. Anyway, you know you're in a rich person mall when for starters, you see like a 10-1 white to minority shopper ratio, you see things like lululemon, Nordstrom, and many more. I was excited there was a lego store, the girlfriend wouldn't let me walk in

    Anyway on to what I usually talk about, the food. First night had local pizza, I love it. We went to Fridays for the bar that night, I wasn't in favor of it but the girlfriend wanted it. Next day started out with bagels, I posted the place on here before, BOrdentown Bagels. They have this thing called the Bordentown Bagel Buster, it's a bagel with Porkroll, Bacon, Sausage, hashbrown and cheese. It was heavenly, great for both hangovers and prepping for day drinking. Lunch I did that at Philly beerfest, I'll discuss that later. Dinner I had a cheesesteak from my favorite local pizzeria, my girlfriend got Tortellini in Alfredo, it was great. Next day, diner for breakfast. Nothing beats a diner breakfast. It's fast and delicious. I had a Porkroll Egg and Cheese sandwich. Then we went out for lunch at 10th Ave Burrito Co. I've talked about it on here, but ther'es not enough great things you can say about the place. Often times when a place gets popular, their quality slips, their quality hasn't slipped despite 2 expansions and always being packed. Got my classic pork mole burrito with chipotle cream sauce, it's maybe the best thing I ate all year. After that it's largely road travelling, did get to Potatopia, super good.

    Anyway to Philly Beer Fest. I have to preface by saying from like 2009 til either 2012 or 13 I went there every year. I stopped when I went to other beer fests. This year I lost my go to beerfest in Mt. Holly so I brought Philly back into the mix. Compared to years past it was way way way way better. First things it was laid out better than any year in the past opting to move breweries to the outer edge, having a clearing in the middle for people to get air, smoke, whatever, they had enough bathrooms (common issue in the past for them). The Brewery selection was quality. Having local breweries to Philly, as well as breweries from all around. From my general impressions, Sam Adams didn't fare well compared to their craft counter parts. They had the most beers on tap with IIRC 4 Sam beers and 2 Angry Orchards. Most had 2, some had 3. Only Long Trail I believe had 4. And it was a true disappointment across the group. Hits include Starr Hill, Lagunitas, Carton, Victory, Flying Fish, Troegs, Anderson Valley, Ballast Point, Ship Yard, and DC Brau. Though only a few breweries were misses, Sam being the biggest. Food there though. Holy crap the food trucks. Girlfriend was hell bent on getting pizza. It was OK. We hit up 4 other food trucks and shared with my siblings and their significant others. First was a mac and cheese truck, they rocked, great toppings, solid mac and cheese, but making flavored Mac, the flavors have to be on point, they were. Second was a sandwich truck where we got a delicious pork roll sandwich. Next up was the cheese curd truck, where we went back to, they made great fried cheese curds and sauces. Then last was a peanut butter truck, got a super nice sandwich, great bread and great flavor combinations (PB, grape jelly, cream cheese, and bacon) overall left very happy. Though sadly we missed out on our great idea for food after cause everything in South Jersey had a 1+ hour wait.
