Shaka in Pier Village, Long Branch

Shaka Long Branch Pier VillageOn a very cold Monday morning around 11am, I ventured up to the Long fish tank shaka pier village long branchBranch beach for an overdue trip to a little piece of Hawaii called Shaka at Pier Village.  Guests are first greeted by a set of bright yellow Adirondack chairs and high top tables made out of bottle caps optimistically waiting for warmer weather!  Walk through the doors and you are instantly drawn to their beautiful fish tank designed and serviced by Advanced Reef Management of Keyport, which contains tropical fish and Hawaii’s State fish, the Humuhumunukunakuapua’a  (hmm, spell check thinks I misspelled that.)

Your Superbowl Sunday Menu

180px-Superbowl_Trophy_CropThis weekend is going to be a great one for staying inside and cooking.  As weather.com is so gently putting it this morning, we’re supposed to get “walloped” by a pretty big snow storm.  So, the grocery stores are going to be packed, but if you want that perfect pot of chili ready for game day, I’m sure I’ll see you there.    Here are my picks and some guest picks for some super Superbowl menu choices.   I don’t list wings but you can bet we’ll have them at my house.  The recipe I use is nothing more than coating the wings lightly with seasoned flour, deep frying them and tossing with the hot sauce recipe right off the bottle of Frank’s Hot Sauce.

Sip & Twit Wine Tasting at The Wine Loft

Tambi Spit and TwitMany of you already know that Twitter and I are quite an item. I realize the little blue bird does not appeal to all, but for the 20 + million people using Twitter, it’s a down right addiction.  So, when Wine Twits contacted me to tell me that they were throwing a Sip and Twit event at The Wine Loft in Pier Village on Wednesday February 10th and asked if I wanted to get involved, I said (in under 140 characters of course) Absolutely, I’d love to.

Big Apple Bite: Cercle Rouge Brassierie on West Broadway

waiter at cercle rougeBefore a much planned visit to the “Big Apple”  I went to the internet to find a French restaurant for dinner on one of my few precious date nights out with my husband!  In my ‘internet travels’, I came upon CERCLE ROUGE on West Broadway, a quaint French restaurant that I just have to share with all of you!
