I'm looking for a place where I can buy aluminum disposable pans with either the cardboard covers or the plastic ones. Any suggestions?

There's one in Bergenfield right on the corner of New Bridge Road and Washington Ave. Like 5 mins from our house if you want to stop by and say hi.

Jason, how big is that place? Do they carry everything, i.e., food, paper goods, flatware, etc? Big selection? Do you know how it compares to Restaurant Depot, the one in Hackensack?

Just bought foil pans with foil lids at Party City yesterday too...but there are only steam pan sizes (full and half), but they're a whopping 50 cents each.

I think Restaurant Depot is bigger but I have never been there, I think you need proof of owning a restaurant to buy there.

Its a decent sized place.

There's also one on State Street In Hackensack on the right side of the street, going towards Essex St. Sorry, but I can't seem to remember the name. ...having a senior moment ....

State street in hackensack was Hackensack supply, but they moved to bergenfield about 5 years ago

Hackensack supply does not even come close to restaurant depot's size, but it does sell to the public where restaurant depot does not.

Jason, you don't need a restaurant you just need a business or a not for profit state certification and that is it. Egullet should be good enough to get you a card. Just remember that all purchases there will be considered part of your business so if the IRS ever scrutinizes you they will look at those purchases to see if they are taxable as part of your salary, but again with egullets food related format any purchases are very easy to write off as research or entertainment. Most other people should still be able to write it off as entertainment as long as they don't go nuts or try to actually run a catering business on the side.

There is a restaurant supply place in bloomfield right of the parkway by the old eggs-in-a-skillet (soon to be dunkin donuts or somesuch thing) This place is more of a bowery style place with much equipment and smallwares but not realy any disposables or food.

Corrados has a restaurant geared location by the brewer/wine supply store. But I believe this is mostly food

i'm with you on that. i looked for these things forever, and finally stumbled upon them at Party City. i bought about a billion of them.

party city locations are all over. there's one on 17, one on rt 3 in clifton, and probably a bunch of others close by.

(i don't remember the price, but i didn't think they were all that much...although i'm sure they can be found cheaper elsewhere...like that National Discount Liquidator place in Maywood where 17/80 meet).

Iirc, the 1/2 pans and lids were 50 cents each at Party City, full-sized ones were $1. Well worth the major investment!!! :raz:
