Rosie

I think there is room for one more at Fascino. We are now at 11.

Let's go!! Is it BYO?

Who else is coming? Rosie Lou RockADS21 Pete Ganz (maybe) Tommy???????????

Would like to sweetly suggest that everyone try to get to the restaurant by 5 PM so we can start eating at 5:15. If it does snow some of us may need to leave early. So can we say 5:15 dinner will be served?

Just edited this to add Cosimo’s Trattoria, 194 Broad Street, Bloomfield (973-429-0558); BYO. Do you have any restaurants to add to this list?

We had burgers recently at Tumulty's Pub in New Brunswick and although they were big they were tasteless. Like the burgers at Gaffer's, West Orange much better.

Well--it's a bit late but I don't usually get to the bios. Congratulations. He's gorgeous. And how come he's not wearing an eGullet shirt?

It will open Jan. 30.

If you bring your male Turley I will bring my female. If they hit it off we can have a wedding at Fascino's that night. You are on the list. Lou Reda and Sue (2) Rosie and Lowell (2) Blondie plus 1 (2) Glenn (1) Amy and Anthony (2) David (1) Double O (1) Room for one more and then we will start a waiting list.

You're bringing a Turley Lou??? We are good for 6 PM. The only annoyance I don't want near me is Glen.

Cann I work where you work?? "And we did have salt and pepper - altho not shakers...little flat dishes with serving spoons)" Salt cellars?

3 out of 4

Congratualtions to Chef Ryan and the DePersio family for the THREE STAR review from Anthony Giglio in the February issue of New Jersey Monthly.

David--You are on the list. And congratulations on the new baby. PLEASE give us the details. Lou Reda and Sue (2) Rosie and Lowell (2) Glenn (1) Amy and Anthony (2) David (1) Double O (1)

Restaurant will be listed 1/28 on Table Hopping With Rosie. My deadline is a few weeks before the actual info is posted on the internet.

Yeah--I go to bed around 8 PM. 6 is good. And Glenn can pay $90 but I think we could easily do $70 per person with tax and tip.

Thanks babyluck for taking the time to give us this information.

Bernards Inn has a fireplace in the lobby. Sergeantsville Inn has a fireplace.

There are many romantic restaurants in NJ. Does it have to have both a fireplace and a view? Keep in mind that it gets dark early. Arthur's Landing in Weehawkin has a gorgeous view of NYC as does Highlawn Pavillon in West Orange. Other romantic restaurants are: AMANDA'S--HOBOKEN ANDRE'S--NEWTON BERNARD'S INN--BERNARDSVILLE CAFE MATISSE--RUTHERFORD JOCELYNE'S--MAPLEWOOD RAT'S--HAMILTON SERGEANTSVILLE INN--SERGEANTSVILLE ZOE'S BY THE LAKE, SPARTA

I WANT MY OWN ORDER OF POLENTA FRIES AS SOON AS I AM SEATED!

Not BYO but they have a reasonable wine list.

So where DID you eat?

jsibley--Where else have you been eating lately? You usually find some great places.

How about we try for Feb 12 and have a snow date for Feb 19? What time? 12:30? 1 PM? Who else is coming? Will I have the two hunks to myself?
