This NJ pasta shop makes 10,000 ravioli a week the old-fashioned way

Flour. Water. Egg. It starts simply, said Dominick Discenza. Building on those three ingredients with "only the best" in cheeses, meats, spices, herbs and oils is the key to Discenza and his family-run L&D Sapore Ravioli & Cheese in Middlesex. For more than 55 years, the Discenza family has shared Italian traditions, family recipes and fresh pasta through its deli and pasta shop. The shop was recently named to Yelp’s 2026 list of the Top 100 Pasta Places in the U.S. Like many of the pasta shops on the list, Sapore's roots run deep into Italian territory, with chef-owners who hail from traditional pasta makers. Many learned the craft from their families with recipes handed down from generation to generation. At Sapore Ravioli, the story begins in the small village of Baranello, Italy. Dicsenza learned to cook while watching and working with his grandparents before he came to the U.S. at age 12 with his family. They would get milk from the cows, make it into mozzarella. They grew olives to make olive oil. Everything was "in the family," he said. Those traditions and flavors remain with him today. Discenza founded Sapore Ravioli & Cheese in 1970, determined to share

Which South Jersey diner is the best of them all?

We want to hear from our readers on a very important subject: Diners. That’s right. Most of us are aware that New Jersey is known as the “Diner Capital of the World” , because, well, we have so many diners across the Garden State. And while some iconic diners have closed over the years , we still have plenty of options to fill our bellies with diner food, especially here in South Jersey. With that in mind, we created a poll so you can tell us which diner is your favorite among the ones we listed. The poll will remain open for about six or seven days so you will have time to revisit the poll. Oh, and do us a favor: We don't mind if you vote more than once, but we don't allow bots in our polls. These polls help small businesses in our communities. We don't want to have to eliminate one from the poll. Please consider a digital subscription to help support our journalism. Celeste E.

This Historic Pennsylvania Restaurant Serves Juicy Burgers With A Side Of Old-School Charm

Alexander Hamilton once rode up to this building in December 1776. Today, the big draw is a burger made from house-ground sirloin, chuck, and short rib. The original structure went up between 1739 and 1742 as a private home. By 1765, it was feeding stagecoach travelers on the busy Philadelphia to New York route. That’s a long run of serving hungry people.
