»» Nicole’s 10 – Lady Chef Rocking the Kitchen in Morris County Morristown’s New Tomato Pie– A Double-Bite Review
Deanna: You say tomato, I say … tomato! We may be from two different counties, but we speak the same language when it comes to food. A recent visit to Morristown’s new Tomato Pie found two Jersey Biters in delicious harmony over a Grandma Pie and a nice plate of rice balls. Lauren: A NYTimes review of Tomato Pie in Morristown had my attention immediately. Thin crust pizza is my favorite, and I’ll find any excuse to return to Morris County. Growing up in Mendham, we didn’t have any good pizza nearby, but the families who live there now will love this place.

(Or, better yet, sending my husband out to do that while I watch Colin Firth in Pride and Prejudice, again.) And I can definitely see the allure of doing it at this up and coming new place. New Jersey Nick’s Pick: The Morristown Diner
When you end up at a diner you don’t know, you never know what you’re gonna get. I know there’s a Yogi Berra’ism in there somewhere but the unknown can be a risky thing when it comes to diners. Lucky for you, I’m a risk taker. Sometimes, you get the greatest family owned place with a unique menu and a feel good atmosphere that leaves you full and smiling. Other times, you end up at a dingy truck stop, and you leave feeling, well, down right dingy. All in all, its a relief when you take a chance on a place and end up at a stand-up New Jersey Diner. Morristown Diner is a reliable classic. Its not particularly remarkable, but its certainly not a bad way to get your burger fix. »» New Jersey Nick’s Pick: The Morristown Diner Blue Morel in MorristownWhen you are invited to a restaurant media dinner, you expect that the restaurant will pull out all the stops to impress you.
