Today Christine and I made a trip to my old neighborhood in New Jersey right accross the Hudson River from Manhattan. While running some errands we had dinner at Bertucci's restaurant on Washington Boulevard. This is one of the new restaurants that opened in the area after I moved to Manhattan over two years ago. As we were walking by several of these restaurants, I was pleasently surprised to see that they were actually quite busy which was contrary to what I expected because there are hardly any people on the streets. At Bertucci's I ate a huge 3-piece Chicken Portobello dish in a snap partly because it was very delicious and partly because I was starving!
