Talk dirty to me 🍸 I think we could all use one of these today. Are martinis a go or a no for you?

🥧 PIES & FRIES (chips?😜) 🍟 This unusually cold weather in NJ has me thinking back to some comfort food from when I was visiting London. First time having a traditional meat pie and it was delicious!! The Admiralty was my go to spot being just down the street from where I stayed in Trafalgar Square - such a fun place to grab a pie and an ale! Can’t wait to get back to traveling ✈️ • • • • • #meatpie #london #londoneats #trafalgarsquare #comfortfood #ukfood #ukeats #supportlocal #foodies #foodiesofinstagram #foodporn #eeeeeats #forkyeah #food52 #thekitchn #thefeedfeed #food #eatlocal #foodiegram #foodiegirl #foodblogger #delicious #eatingfortheinsta #networkingfoodies #theadmiralty #admiraltypub

Always thinking bao my next meal... 💭 ok I need to talk about @cellar335 for a min. This dining experience was one of the best I’ve had in a long time. Not only were the food and drinks amazing, but the staff and vibe was seriously on point! The food is tapas style (the best for trying different dishes!) and the drinks are served in tiki glasses, so fun! Highly highly recommend! 1️⃣ CRISPY PORK BELLY BAO - house made pickles and spicy mayo 2️⃣ KOREAN STYLE WINGS - Lime soy sauce 3️⃣ KOREAN BBQ WAGYU SIRLOIN- agave chili dipping sauce 4️⃣ SMOLDERING BASTARD - rye, rum, ginger, passion fruit, lime • • • • • #jerseycity #jerseycityeats #bao #wagyu #kbbq #koreanbbq #chickenwings #tikibar #supportlocal #foodies #njeats #foodiesofinstagram #foodporn #eeeeeats #forkyeah #food52 #thekitchn #thefeedfeed #food #eatlocal #foodiegram #foodiegirl #foodblogger #delicious #eatingfortheinsta #networkingfoodies

Short girl probz. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Forever on my tippy toes. Not loving the cold weather approaching so throwing it back to a few weekends ago at @stonyhillfarms when it was a little warmer. So fun but prob should have brought a step stool, why are the best looking apples aways at the top?! 😫 🍎 🍏 • • • • • #applepicking #pumpkinpatch #pumpkinpicking #autumn #fall #autumnvibes🍁 #apple #orchard #chesternj #stonyhillfarms #foodies #njeats #foodiesofinstagram #foodporn #eeeeeats #forkyeah #food52 #thekitchn #thefeedfeed #food #supportlocal #foodiegram #foodblogger #delicious #eatingfortheinsta #networkingfoodies

No shellfishness here, we definitely shared all of these dishes 😌 we had an awesome dinner at @battellojc accompanied by some refreshing cocktails! Can we talk about the truffle risotto fries? Delicious. 1️⃣ SEARED SEA SCALLOPS - toasted orzotto, roasted peppers, sweet corn crema 2️⃣ LONG ISLAND DUCK BREAST - red wine braised endive, roasted carrots, sunchoke puree, huckleberry gastrique 3️⃣ CRISPY TRUFFLE RISOTTO FRIES - smoked garlic dip • • • • • #jerseycity #jerseycityeats #scallops #duckbreast #risotto #fries #battello #jerseycitylife #outtodinner #supportrestaurants #supportlocal #foodies #njeats #foodiesofinstagram #foodporn #eeeeeats #forkyeah #food52 #thekitchn #thefeedfeed #food #eatlocal #foodiegram #foodiegirl #foodblogger #delicious #eatingfortheinsta #networkingfoodies

Sobriety is not in my vodkabulary 🍸 🤷🏻‍♀️ especially on a Friday. Thinking back to this lovely dinner at @molosrestaurant in Weehawken - accompanied by (many) delicious drinks and a great view.

I mozz be dreaming 💭 what would my insta grid be without a good caprese every few photos?! Seriously though, it’s my duty 😅 anyway— guys, we really need to take advantage of the last couple weeks of the best tomato season around here 🍅 what better way to combine mozz, tomato, basil (w/ drizzle of balsamic) and crusty bread? 🥖 • • • • • #caprese #tomatomozzarella #freshmozzarella #mozzarella #mutz #tomato #balsamic #crostini #foodies #njeats #foodiesofinstagram #foodporn #eeeeeats #forkyeah #food52 #thekitchn #thefeedfeed #food #eatlocal #foodiegram #foodiegirl #foodblogger #delicious #eatingfortheinsta #networkingfoodies

the world looks better through rosé colored glasses 🍷 Happy Friday guys! I’m going to be honest - mentally, I am here 💭 I love the fall, but sitting on the bay at @parkersgaragelbi with a glass of wine and delicious food is a whole mood in the summer!

Guys it’s Friday Jr! Finally almost the weekend and what better way to bring it in than with a dessert post? Not a norm for me but let me tell you - these two desserts blew me away! We had the orange and thyme creme brûlée (with a side of Gran Marnier😜that was poured over top) and the blackberry vacherin which was topped with a merange and gold flakes!

If you don’t like Milanese, we are cutlet from a different cloth. 🍴 throwback to dining at Osteria Giotto before they opened the new restaurant @larocca.osteria. My all time favorite Italian restaurant. No joke, the veal Milanese was the only thing I would order because it was the BEST ever. Peppery, lightly dressed arugula and diced tomatoes and onions on top of the crispiest cutlet. *chefs kiss*. Can’t wait to try the newly opened restaurant. • • • • • #montclairnj #osteriagiotto #giotto #milanese #vealmilanese #arugula #italianfood #italian #italianstyle #eatlocal #supportsmallbusiness #foodies #njeats #foodiesofinstagram #foodporn #eeeeeats #forkyeah #food52 #thekitchn #thefeedfeed #food #eatlocal #foodiegram #foodiegirl #foodblogger #delicious #eatingfortheinsta #networkingfoodies

Herb your enthusiasm 🌱 does anyone else die and go to heaven at farmers markets? We went apple picking in Chester, NJ a couple of weekends ago and they had such a nice market filled with the freshest fruits and veggies. I could have spent all day in there!

Spice up your life 🌶 Who likes their ramen extra spicy?? 🙋🏻‍♀️🔥 you can always catch me adding chili oil to pretty much everything but especially ramen! The cold weather is creeping in in NJ but let’s face it, it’s always soup season for me! • • • • • #spicymiso #ramen #spicy #summitnj #soup #soupseason #ramennoodles #foodies #njeats #foodiesofinstagram #foodporn #eeeeeats #forkyeah #food52 #thekitchn #thefeedfeed #food #eatlocal #foodiegram #foodiegirl #foodblogger #delicious #eatingfortheinsta #networkingfoodies

Lardon my French 🥓 we had the most amazing dinner at @faubourgmontclair a couple of weekend ago! Everything was so delicious, the flavors were unreal. We started with the Tarte Flambé which was the thinnest, most flavor packed flatbread I’ve ever had! Followed by the Coq au Vin and Beef Duo (bavette and oxtail)which was magical. I’ll have to save the dessert for another post because WOW. Highly highly recommend if you haven’t been! • • • • • #lardon #frenchfood #montclairnj #montclair #montclaireats #coqauvin #oxtail #finedining #foodies #njeats #foodiesofinstagram #foodporn #eeeeeats #forkyeah #food52 #thekitchn #thefeedfeed #food #eatlocal #foodiegram #foodiegirl #foodblogger #delicious #eatingfortheinsta #networkingfoodies #supportlocal #supportrestaurants
