Went for lunch a few weeks ago and we liked it. Food and service were excellent. Bea/NJ PS ROSIE- we have been away and I just saw your Hackettstown message. I don;t know that restaurant..sorry.

Fujiyama 1954 Rt. 57 (across from Shoprite) Hackettstown, NJ 07840 908 850-9400 Phone 908 850-1801 Fax Open for lunch Mon - Fri Open on Sat at 11:30 but you order a la carte or dinner menu Open 7 days for dinner. The owner tells me a new menu is forthcoming, within a month. I don't know if enough people come to Fujiyama to keep it open but John and I are going as often as we can. We are usually in this area once a week. Bea

We haven't found any outstanding restaurants (our opinion only) in the Hackettstown/Port Murray area of NJ. A new Japanese restaurant opened on Rt. 57 so we gave it a try, expecting something ordinary but acceptable. WOW! Some of the freshest fish we have had in NJ. This restaurant is a find, partly because it is so good, and partly because there isn't much else. IF anybody finds themselves in this neck of the woods of NJ, don't miss it. Hi Rosie! Bea

Had lunch there a few month ago. The food was good, not great and lots of it. I also like the General Store for takeout. Bea

Ok. I know soft shell crabs are not in season yet, but once they are, any thoughts on the best restaurants for them? My favorite, a dump in Long Valley, is kaput and replaced by Gulf Coast (which we hated). Thanks. Bea

WOW What a selection! Between you and Rosie, we won't have any problems dining in Cherry Hill. Amazing to find such a good list in Cherry Hill. Because of the race track, maybe?? Anyway, I have both lists printed out and now, I will have to decide which one to pick

Thanks, Rosie

My husband and I will be in Cherry Hill, NJ a week from Wed. We would like to find an "interesting" lunch spot. Maybe Greek or Russian? Or Japanese? I don't want Italian or French. Are we in trouble? Thanks for any suggestions. Bea

Cheese is good at the new Whole Foods, in Madison.

We like Jocelyn's and Chez Catherine in Westfield.

Has anyone been to Mikes Sub Shop in Dunellen? I used to love their subs but I haven't been there in years.... I love them with crunchy bread and hot peppers. Yum.

Love Opah's grill. Not impressed with Limestone (only went for lunch).Portions were too big. Sammy's is wonderful for steaks.

if you are coming from the Summit area, you don't have to go on Rt. 22. More info if you care.

Thanks for all the suggestions. Since we will walk from the Princeton Record Exchange, anything that isn't walking distance won't do Sushi cafe sounds like fun. And so do Main St. Cafe and Mediterra. I will have to walk along Chambers st. and see what we find. I saw an interesting place, Le Copain(?) but don't know if it is open for lunch or not. It's on Witherspoon, near Nassau.

My husband and I would like to find some good lunch restaurants in downtown Princeton. We like the Ferry House and have not tried anything else. Suggestions? Thanks.
