🔥 Can’t Miss Dish

What: Egg, Mozzarella & Hash Brown on Sesame Bagel

Where: BBagels, 367 Grove St.

Why: Some crispy hash browns, ooey-gooey mozzarella and fluffy eggs stacked on a toasty sesame bagel—your new go-to breakfast sandwich with crunch, melt, and morning magic.

Healthy, Wealthy & Wise

Drink a full glass of water first thing in the morning—before coffee, before emails. It kickstarts your metabolism and helps hydrates your brain.

👀 A lokel’s View

Alessia Aron: Chief Eating Officer of Beyond the Plate Food Tours

🍔 Top Bite & Sip: The croquettes dipped in garlic toum sauce from Perquin. Worth the horrific vampire killing breath you’ll have afterwards. Best sip… anything made by my fav bartender, Enmanuel, at Archer. Off menu cocktail vibes.

❤️ Perfect Day in JC: Sunset Summer walks along the waterfront, catching live music or DJ at Exchange Place or whatever other events are going on. And picnics at Liberty State Park.

 🤔What Being lokel Means: Being lokel means remembering we are part of a community. Community is number one for me. Feeling connected to my neighbors, my local business owners, inviting people over to hang, going out to dinner and supporting locally owned businesses, people who care to see our city THRIVE.

Did You Know? Jersey City is basically an open-air gallery - with 200+ murals around our beautiful city!
