Put me in a local chocolate shop and there's a really, really good chance I'll be pleased. The new Kenilworth Commons neighbor, Davidson Chocolate Co., did not disappoint this chocoholic in the least!
It's a teeny little shop, but Davidson Chocolate…More »
Yes, Morty's is a chain. Yes, I still love it dearly. Yes, I wish it were less expensive. It also reminds me of my time in the Windy City...so I'm probably a bit biased.

It's 90 degrees, muggy and sticky.... and Yoforia is perfect solution. This Yoforia is in a great location, facing Selwyn Rd. right down the way from Nolen Kitchen.

I have been on the prowl for custard. Sweet, creamy, bad for me custard. I've really missed it since my days at UW in Madison, WI. Thanks to Rita's, I've gotten my fix!

Oh my stars another delicious bakery! Thank goodness, because God forbid I have to travel a mile outside of Elizabeth to fetch a delicious treat.

Oh this day of thanks, I am thankful for many things - cupcakes included. However, I get pretty ornery when I nosh on a sub par cupcake. I am delighted to report that Cupcrazed did not disappoint in the least.
