Super Frat

So I have the website just about fixed. I actually had to write this from another computer! Anyhow, might not see a new strip until Friday, we’ll see what tomorrow brings.

In the meantime, a quick restaurant review. The Missus and I hit Bareburger as part of my little tour of Montclair. It’s designed as a super organic eatery, but with fun burgers in fries. But the appeal is, you get any meat you want: Beef, chicken, elk, bison, boar, duck— They pretty much had it all.

I got a boar burger with duck bacon on it. Gotta say, it was pretty outrageous and tasty. Unfortunately, it was also kinda small. Everything is sold ala carte, so getting fries and onion rings was extra. Our waiter was fairly attentive, but it was hard to get an iced tea refill. And even the glasses were kind of small.

Still, it was tasty enough that we split a sundae. I liked it, but it’s the sort of place I wouldn’t go unless I was rolling in cash and didn’t mind dropping $50 on burgers and fries for two. Maybe if I’m dying to try elk, I’ll be back. Otherwise, Manny’s Diner is just across the street.

Bareburger gets 7.5 out of 10 keggers.

Fat Guy Eats: Manny’s Diner in Montclair, NJ

by tonyd on August 8, 2016 at 12:27 am

Restaurant: Manny’s Diner in Montclair, NJ

Address: 12 Church Street, Montclair, NJ 07042

Food: Diner Food/Coffee Bar

Price: Very reasonable

Portions: Good

Taste: Mind blowing

Service: Okay

Atmosphere: Bustling diner

While at my signing at East Side Mags, I got there early so on the recommendation from Jeff, the owner, the Missus and I hit Manny’s Diner. We were in a hurry and it was just before Noon. I gotta say, I was expecting an overpriced, hipster joint like Raymond’s. Boy was I wrong!

The Missus had some kind of omlette, I think a Western one. I had the Mexicali-Rose Wrap. Holy shit was it good. I mean, I couldn’t believe how good it was. And I had asked the waitress to rush it and she made it appear in like, under 5 minutes. One minute, I’m talking about the signing and what we were going to do afterwards, but after a bite of that wrap? All I could do was talk about how good it was. Fresh avocado and scallions. I mean, it just tasted like one of the best things I ever ate.

The waitress was a little overwhelmed. I noticed a “Help Wanted” sign and she struck me as new. But she was pleasant and helpful. Montclair has been on the rebound for a while. The center of town is super nice with concerts and events. Really some of the best food.

Manny’s Diner gets 9.5 out of 10 keggers. I would drive to Montclair just for this wrap. It was that good.
