Ten Things You Shouldn’t Do on a First Date

by tonyd on August 8, 2018 at 12:01 am

  1.  Say, “Wow, I thought the camera added ten pounds, not subtracted fifty!”
  2.  Look under the table in the restaurant and say, “We’ could probably just do it right here.”
  3.  Insist on signing several waivers promising you’ll return calls and texts.
  4.  Swipe through Tinder matches and ask, “You’re better than this one, right?”
  5. Only talk in Family Guy quotes.
  6.  Ask a woman, “When’s the baby due?”
  7.  Ask a guy, “Are you packing at least eight inches?”
  8.  Shoot at the floor and demand the waiter dance for your date’s amusement.
  9.  Ask your date to pay for dinner and your rent.
  10.  Keep making the finger through the circle motion with your hands.

Fat Guy Eats: Elena Wu’s in Voorhees Town Center

by tonyd on August 6, 2018 at 12:01 am

Restaurant:  Elena Wu’s 

Address:  12106 Town Center Blvd, Voorhees, NJ 08043 

Food:  Chinese and Japanese food, sushi

Price:  Above Average

Portions:  Really Good

Taste:  Excellent

Service:  Excellent

Atmosphere: Fancy

I had gone to Elena Wu’s when it was over by the movie theater, but I wanted to try the newer location near the mall.  (They call it the Voorhees Town Center, but it’s the mall.  It’s just outside buildings now.)  Anyhow, this is a good date restaurant.  It’s fancy, white linens, anxious waiters—  The whole deal.

I ordered the Elena Salad which was lettuce, chicken and crunchy bits with a side of dressing which tasted peanut-y to me.  I thought it would be ginger, but it was good.  I wanted some sushi, but it is pretty pricey.  I was looking at like $50 minimum if I got my normal order, so I figured I’d just get an appetizer.  I got two pieces of white tuna and when I ate them, I almost wished I had spent that money.  Excellent.

Finally, I ordered Grandfather Chicken (sesame chicken) and that was really filling.  It was a nice portion.  The total bill was around $33 and change, so $40 with the tip with my bottomless iced tea.  A little high, but worth it.

I give Elena Wu’s 7 out of 10 keggers.

Fat Guy Eats: Zito’s Tavern

by tonyd on August 4, 2018 at 12:13 am

Restaurant: Zito’s Tavern

Address: 350 Vineyard Rd, Atco, NJ-08004

Food:  Bar food, Italian Food

Price:  Average to Low

Portions:  Really Good

Taste:  Excellent

Service:  Excellent

Atmosphere:  Just off of Route 30, down Atco way—  There’s a little tavern just a block off the road called Zito’s.  It’s super easy to miss if you’re not paying attention, especially since it’s on a stretch of 30 where the traffic doesn’t like to slow down.  It’s right behind the Waterford Township EMS building, so if you pass that road, you’ve missed it.

Zito’s is a friendly bar where the locals hang out and since I think many of the locals are Italian, the food is top notch.  I met my dad here and we had dinner because he heard the muscles were good.  Hey thought they were decent.  I had the homemade chicken parm, which I thought was great.  Plus they had really decent fries.  The little skinny ones with no coating.  The waitress was sweet and kept filling my iced tea.

Although ultimately this feels like more of a lunch time place, dinner was definitely worth eating.  My side salad was good too and our meals came with a side of garlic bread, which was okay.

I give the Zito’s Tavern 8 out of 10 keggers.  Worth a stop.
