It's a goldmine. The original owner must have bribed the state officials and politicians big time. That whole strip on river road contained many stores and restaurants which were bought out through eminent domain and demolished for Route 21 and the entrance ramps to route 3. Rutt's was the only one allowed to stand and if you ever go there take notice that the entrance ramps to route 3 were actually built around the restaurant!

Aaaah. RUTT'S HUT. Proudly clogging N.J. arteries for more than 80 years. Or is it 60? Shucks, I can't remember. Nevertheless, a good stop before or after a Jets game.

Great thread, Coleus.

There are other things on the menu besides hot dogs. Looky here!

One NJ freeper goes there for the chili. I can swear by the onion rings.

I think it must be 80 years, not 60--in any case, it is an institution.

Notice the Taylor Ham on the menu. Part of traditional New Jersey cuisine.

yum yum, I'm getting hungry.

Yes, their menu contains the typical diner food and not just rippers and wellers. I like the onion rings myself, they are home made and taste great!

We seriously considered Sunday, but we had to make it early because of the waterfall trip, and it would have interfered with too many people's church services.

Next one on Sunday. Maybe the big December party?

Thanks for the reply and the Freepmail. I just gotta make one of these gatherings one of these days.

I would have taken the time off but I'm starting with a new company the beginning of that week, and not sure how well it would go over asking for a day off after having working there four days.

Okay! Who wants to start the Focault Brass Balls Pool???
