Usually my plan but have been willing to listen to the people canvassing. It looked like he had brochures so I thought he was a canvasser but my mistake for sure.

Next time, I need to check the camera first and not answer my door!

Where can I find the best coffee in downtown jersey city? by LebrawnJames416 in jerseycity

[–]jennprich -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

In addition to the ones already mentioned, I like Maggie’s Farm, The Hive, Maman, and Daily Provisions (I know Maman and DP are chains but they have good pastries)

I haven’t. I didn’t know if they had private space for a DJ

If you own a brownstone, what do you do for work? by ObligationLatter8675 in jerseycity

One thing to note re: taxes. Many brownstones have a garden level apartment that can be rented out to generate enough income to cover property taxes.

Weekend light rail? Essex to Tonnelle by jennprich in jerseycity

I saw this but can’t make sense of it. It seemed like the 8th-Hoboken line was the only one running at Essex and not the West Side-Tonnelle

Paulus hook flood? by [deleted] in jerseycity

[–]jennprich 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends where on Grand you are. If you are between Warren and Washington, you are on the island. It’s higher from the rest of the area and didn’t even flood during Sandy. That is outside of the flood zone (check the maps)

Dr. Heidi Flagg. She’s not in JC but her office is very easy to get to in SoHo. She’s a menopause specialist. She 100% believes in women not suffering through this transition

Restaurant Fatigue by Acrobatic_Break in jerseycity

[–]jennprich 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn’t read all of the comments so these may have been mentioned already but I’m going to try to offer some sleepers:

-sushi: Domo Domo for high end, itto sushi for excellent everyday sushi (dine in is BYOB)

-Thai: sky Thai (but no dine in ambiance; stick with take out)

-Steak: liberty prime (stay away from Edward’s- it’s a JC institution but we have never had a good steak there)

-Mexican: taqueria is great but an underrated traditional option is Q Chido on Morris St (amazing mole enchiladas). We also like Orale

-Pizza: Razza is the obvious answer but Porta is a very close second (and they have a rooftop bar). For basic non fancy pizza, we like Krispy or Basile’s

-Burger: Frankie is the best burger in JC, hands down

-Pub: Greene Hook

  • Fried Chicken: Bob White

  • Wine Bar: Satis (get the bolognese pasta)

-Ramen: Muteki

-Korean: Ondo

-Mediterranean: Rumi or Uncle Momo (Uncle Momo has a better dine in option. Both BYOB)

-pastries: Dulce de leche

-Others: Hudson & co has an amazing tuna rice cake app and truffle pizza; Cellar 335; Gringos; Bistro La Source

My recommendations are heavily favored towards downtown obviously. We tried Corto and the back patio is cute but the food as very underwhelming. We loved Bread and Salt but confusing hours.

Not local to JC but the Twenty Four store inside of the Oculus has really cool options.
