No, the title does not refer to a hip new restaurant, but backyard barbeque I attended in Maplewood, NJ last weekend. The food and company were wonderful. Some highlights included: these amazing veggie/tofu kabobs. I have no idea how they got the tofu to stay on the skewers, but I am so glad they did because it was amazing. The kabobs had a wonderful flavor that I was surprised to learn was supplied by a jar of marinade from Trader Joes(!). I didn’t imagine a jarred marinade could taste this good.
Also featured were the hostess’ family recipe chicken wings, barbeque chicken, bison burgers, chicken sausages, veggie sausages, New Mexican layered dip and chips, about the best potato salad I have ever had, tasty cucumber salad, and desserts galore, including some to-die-for blondies. Besides the sangria I brought and copious soda, beer, and wine, there was also a delish bourbon slush (supplied by the Predicate).
Thanks Suz and Jen!!! Here are the pics:
