The Speckled Egg Café: Saturday Supper

Want to know what a true and original voice in cooking tastes like? Then step right up to this one-of-a-kind in Lambertville where the forces in the kitchen rise to every moment in time and redefine seasonality on brave new terms. It’s the newest entry into our canon of Favorites.

LB’s Lunch Box

A seafood salad sandwich, a taco, an ice cream sandwich and even lemonade: Not exactly unfamiliar eats, but at this seasonal getaway run by chef Joselin Oudemans on Belhaven Lake in the heart of the Pine Barrens they are exalted rather than merely elevated. It’s that style of cooking that lifts LB’s into TPW’s canon of Favorites.

Mayer’s Tavern

Kicking off a new column that spotlights favorites in the Garden State and will appear occasionally is this destination in Cape May where our own Deep South is mined for its bests – bests that then get absolute-best treatments in a tiny, yet mighty kitchen.
