Celebrating the Best of New Jersey...
One Restaurant, Recipe & Adventure at a Time.
One Restaurant, Recipe & Adventure at a Time.
For more than fifty years, we've explored New Jersey one memorable destination at a time. Jersey Fun & Food brings together the restaurants, recipes, activities, communities and trusted resources we've discovered along the way.
Explore our favorite pizza shops, bakeries and restaurants; discover beaches, wineries, downtowns, festivals, hiking trails and family activities; or browse health and wellness resources covering fitness, yoga, healthy eating, spas, self-care and local wellness providers.
If you already live here or are considering a move, our New Jersey guides can help you explore counties, towns, schools, school ratings, commuting options, neighborhood characteristics and lifestyle choices. You'll also find practical real estate guidance, property-research tools, trusted service professionals, homes for sale and resources for understanding your home's value.
These aren't recommendations collected by strangers. They come from places we've personally visited or have been recommended and are experiences shared with our children, grandchildren, family, friends, neighbors and clients.
As REALTORS® with decades of combined experience and proud members of Compass Real Estate, we know that choosing the right community involves much more than finding a house. We hope Jersey Fun & Food helps you discover everything that makes New Jersey a wonderful place to eat, explore, live and feel at home.

A short, honest list
House Favorites.
This is the abbreviated version — a taste of the full guide, printed the way we'd hand it to a friend who just moved to town. No sponsorships, no swapped rankings. If it's on the list, we've actually eaten there.
