Farmers’ Market 2011 at Journal Square

Del — Thu, 14 Jul 2011 11:30:10 +0000

Farmers’ Market at Journal Square started about three weeks ago and will continue until the fall season every Wednesday and Friday. If you are a first time resident of JSQ, this event simply means you get a chance to purchase fresh fruits and vegetables locally grown here in NJ.

The market is located just outside of PATH station on John F. Kennedy Boulevard. You’ll also find bread, pickles, tomatoes, snacks, and NEW this year: Gourmet coffee, NJ wines, and Italian specialties.

The Market opens at 10 in the morning and closes at 7:30PM until November 23, 2011 (Wed. and Fri).

7-11-2011: Free Slurpee at 7-Eleven Jersey City

Del — Mon, 11 Jul 2011 11:30:48 +0000

Today marks the 84th Birthday of 7-Eleven, which means Free Slurpee for everyone!

We have three 7-11 stores here in Jersey City, two of them are in Journal Square: one at the corner of Sip and Bergen Avenues across the PATH Station, and one on the boulevard between St. Pauls Avenue and Route 139. The third store is on Tonnelle Avenue next to 555 Market.

Each customer will receive 7.11-ounce frozen Slurpee drink served in a special cup. You can get refills according to the personnel at Sip/Bergen branch. However, the staff on 7-11 JFK and 7-11 Tonnelle don’t have any idea why slurpees are free today. Maybe they’re not participating? Make sure to give them a call before you go to those branches.

Take advantage of the free slurpee, it is perfect for today’s hot weather! Enjoy it while it lasts, it’s not free tomorrow!

7-Eleven (7-11) JFK Boulevard Jersey City

Del — Sat, 30 Oct 2010 22:30:12 +0000

7-Eleven on the boulevard. Taken Sept 2010.

This is the newest 7-Eleven (7-11) store in Journal Square. It opened sometime in October 2010, less than a year after the first 7-11 opened in December 2009 at the corner of Sip Avenue and Bergen Avenue.

7-Eleven
Description: 24-hour Convenience Store, Snacks, Food, Beverages
Location: 3080 John F. Kennedy Boulevard next to gas station between St. Paul Avenue and Route 139
Phone: (201)798-8811

I haven’t been here yet but being on the boulevard next to the gas station, this store target motorists and drivers. I think it’s safe to assume that the foot traffic is better at 7-11 Sip/Bergen Avenue.

Taj Mahal - Newark Avenue Entrance (taken May 9, 2010)

Taj Mahal Restaurant on Newark Avenue (just off of Five Corners) finally opens in Journal Square after more than 2 years of construction. What took them so long, I don’t know. The Indian Cuisine has two entrances: one on Newark Avenue (main) and another on Summit Avenue.

National Pancake Day at IHOP Jersey City

Del — Mon, 22 Feb 2010 18:15:20 +0000

Do you love having pancakes for breakfast at IHOP? Well, how about getting them for free?

Tomorrow – February 23, 2010 – is the National Pancake Day Celebration, and IHOP will be hosting its free pancake event from 7AM – 10AM as a part of their fundraising effort for Children’s Miracle Network.

I called up IHOP Jersey City and asked about it; they said the event will be from 7AM – 9AM only, instead of 10AM.

About National Pancake Day

February 23, 2010

Since beginning its National Pancake Day celebration in 2006, IHOP has raised more than $3.25 million to support charities in the communities in which it operates. While IHOP’s National Pancake Day typically takes place on Shrove Tuesday, this year the company will host its free pancake event on Tuesday, February 23, extending the fundraising window by one week to maximize donations for Children’s Miracle Network. With your help, we hope to raise $5 million in five years for Children’s Miracle Network and other local charities through your donations in 2010!

Known also as Fat Tuesday or Mardi Gras, National Pancake Day dates back several centuries to when the English prepped for fasting during Lent. Strict rules prohibited the eating of all dairy products during Lent, so pancakes were made to use up the supply of eggs, milk, butter and other dairy products…hence the name Pancake Tuesday or Shrove Tuesday.

Jersey City Food: Sip PIZZA

Del — Tue, 05 Jan 2010 16:11:52 +0000

Sip Pizza is just one of the local businesses that opened in the past month. It is located across various Delis near DMV-MVC Jersey City. If you’re coming from from the PATH station, just walk east of Sip Avenue on to Summit Av.

The fast food features .99c pizza, which seems to be an attractive price based on the number of people I see there everytime I pass/drive by the place. As for the pizza itself, I haven’t tried it yet.

Jersey City Food: Kultural Kuisines on the Boulevard

Del — Sun, 03 Jan 2010 04:16:14 +0000

Kultural Kuisines opened late November of 2009. So why exactly am I posting this restaurant? Well, it is because this place has been the home of two previous failed restaurants (can you guess without clicking the link?) in a span of 1 year. Makes me wonder: For how long will this business stay open?

7-Eleven at the corner of Bergen Avenue and Sip Avenue

Slurpee anyone? The spot vacated by Washinton Mutual (WaMu) last February will now become 7-Eleven. I saw some construction going on inside a couple of days ago (Christmas Eve). 7-11 is just one of the few businesses that opened/will open this month (will post some soon). Makes me wonder, how many 7-Eleven’s do we have here in Jersey City?
