I've been called a 'faggot' while walking on Wayne and then the effer attempted to spit on me... it landed maybe a foot from me. In short - I don't walk through there any more.

How long ago did this incident occur, did you report it, mention it to your local block association and at your Captain's meeting ? This should have been nipped in the bud from day one. Sounds like another occupy situation like OWS. Incidents like these could incite a riot maybe that is when the city will enforce some rules around there.

So it won't be a bar? I heard that the spot where Dunkin Donuts is will be a "specialty pizza place". And the place next to Powerhouse Lounge is a pizza place that is empty all the time.

It's a shame, Bar Majestic easily had the coolest vibe in all of JC - it actually had a ton of character, especially the front half of the interior. It had the feel of a wine bar in the Village or something. Not nearly enough places in JC like that...

You can get a decent ribye sandwhich from Healy's Tavern. They use bread from Peccororo's.

Although I hate to recommend a place in Hoboken over JC, Philly's Cheesesteak in Hoboken on Washington is as close to a real Philly steak as I've gotten in the area. They are the only ones who get the bread right, and they have whiz. Piccolos in Hoboken, as mentioned, is fantastic too, but it is not Philly style.

If you are going to go all the way to Philladelphia, Tony Luke's is the best IMHO. I much prefer it to Pat's or Geno's.

I have tried a lot of cheesesteaks in JC and none really are that great. I was hoping for someone to throw out a new spot on this thread but alas I think the answer is that there is no great place for one in JC

are you talking about Abbeys bar? That place is a dump and the clientele is nothing but white trash. I wonder what goes on in there to. I walk past there at night on my walk back from the Path and the place is really sleezy. Was in there about 3 yrs. ago and it was a dump then. Cant imagine it got better over the years. I see nothing but scum walking in and out of there even at 8 pm at night. Dont know what comes out of that rat infested hole after 8?

i see a lot of ambling people on bikes just cruising on the sidewalk around here and it's obvious it's a symptom of having zero bike infrastructure. you never see that in manhattan. joe schmoe on the beach cruiser isn't going to have any idea that you're not supposed to ride on the sidewalk because there is nothing around to indicate otherwise.

How about common sense? I don't see cars driving on the sidewalk.

I had completely different experience with the JCPD in Paulus Hook. I called them to complain about people loitering around and making noise after coming out of a bar next door. The car came promptly to dispersed the people.

Exactly! unless you are a councilman they go the extra mile.

So what is the deal with Moishe's employees? I think I must have missed something. They are known party animals?

MikeyTBC: Sure, they weren't completely nude but they were lounging around in tighty whiteys on my roof... my neighbors and I found it indecent.

Is it just me??? I don't recall the line being out the door in the past. Have that many more yuppies $4.00 ice cream cone lovers moved in during the two (?) years they were closed? Or have we just been that deprived of their delicious ice cream and everyone's simply freaking out cause they're open again? Reminds me of tourists in line at Cake Boss in Hoboken or Magnolia in the city.

Either way, 20 mins in line for ice cream seems a little crazy. I don't think I'd wait in line that long for a free cone and $5 cash back.
Tommy Two Scoops just got another customer or maybe I'll visit Torico's on a rainy day.

I didn't see lines yesterday. It's just the opening rush, the place has been closed for 18 months, Tasti De-Lite disappeared, people were eager for ice cream and to see the new space. Don't understand why people like you think everything has to do with damn yuppie scum.

You don't need to waste money and send poop to yourself. Just put poop in a package outside your door in the morning. That is perfectly legal - you are not transporting anything.

Forget about poop, buy a can of worms in a pet store. Put some food in there and put that on the door step. If no one picks it up, then toss that in the garbage. if someone picks it up, then they stole it from you and they deserve what they get.

It is so good! I live across the street from this place and was hungry so I decided to check it out with my boyfriend. It is a new restaurant that opened with an owner who was a former stock broker turned chef . He went to culinary school at night before opening up his own place. Wow was I pleasantly surprised,the appetizers freshly made Empanadas and trio of Monfongos are freaking to die for. I am not of Puerto Rican decent but I have seen the light of what I have been missing. The Entrees were equally as tasty, my boyfriend had the pork and I had the chicken with Aji Verde sauce. So yummy , the owner calls this his money sauce, which could not be any further from the truth. I was a chef for over ten years before I got into food sales. I know my food! This place is a diamond in the rough excellent place for authentic Latino cuisine.
