“Every other day it seems another restaurant shuts its doors. But in North Jersey there are restaurants whose kitchens keep going and going and going. Here are eight of the oldest and best North Jersey classic restaurants, all of them at least three decades old; a few nearly a century old. From a legendary hot dog joint to a whimsical luncheonette to a haute-cuisine establishment, these restaurants have clearly stood the test of time.” – Esther Davidowitz , Food Editor, @EstherDavido
