Foster’s Tavern

Three of us swung in on Sunday afternoon for the first time in a bit (been traveling).

Brussels sprout special was so good we ordered a second. Onion soup was very good - someone there mentioned the new chef is a soup guy. Caprese salad, Caesar salad and tenders very good, as well.

Sadly they were out of the butternut squash bisque as I really wanted to try it. Guess it’s a good sign they sold out of it. But very happy with the onion soup.

Chef Tony, let me guess...you aren't originally from New Jersey, are you?

The reason I ask is because when I ate there in August I ordered the pork roll, aka Taylor Ham sandwich, and it is no longer offered.

A pity...cut thicker than it was that day, fried, and garnished with catsup it evoks strong "Garden State" memories.

But I understand: new chef, new approach to doing things: no worries.

Good luck, I hope you guys live long and prosper.

I actually am from jersey but was not there for the porkroll sandwiches or the jersey devil pizza but they will return in the summer and I take my pork roll seriously.

And it's spicy mustard on a triple or quadrupal bypass not ketchup

We stopped by for lunch yesterday, first time in quite a while. The menu has expanded quite a bit. There must have been a group there Thursday evening as most of the special had sold out including the turkey veg soup that my wife had wanted. So the specials are popular.

I had the crab cake salad which was excellent. My wife had wings which were just OK and she shared some of the salad. There is a good draft beer selection. Her Tuckerman's was $8 but my Maine Lunch IPA was $10.

We will be back.

Pulling up another old thread.

Fosters has been our go to lately. We are there either Friday or Saturday nights. The music is always good and you can't beat the $25 prime rib.

My favorite thing there has to be the Aqua Vue Haze beer. Very tasty.
