One night in New Brunswick - where to eat?

[RUNNERFEMME]

I will be in New B for one night. I have looked on line. The Frog and the Peach? Catherine Lombardi? Clydz? Where would you suggest that a lone business traveler dine on a Monday night? Thanks for suggestions?

I've always liked Clydz. How often do you get the chance to eat antelope and wild boar cooked by someone with skills?

I have enoyed all the above recs, but have not been to Daryl's since the changeover and have no idea how it is now. Would also add Due Mari to the higher end list.

But I have a night to eat in town next week and I am heading across the bridge to Pad Thai in Highland Park (about two miles maybe from the Hyatt). My second choice would be just a bit up Easton Ave to Noodle Gourmet. Neither place is high end, both are asian, and yet these are the two places that I yearn for.

Thanks much. I read about Daryl's and Due Mari. The Frog sounded a little less familiar to me, so I think I will try it. Plus, it's near where I am staying, so it makes for a convenient evening.

Daryl Win Bar has been closed for a while. It may open in the future under different owner. Due Mari is in my opinion the best in New Brunswick. Frog and Peach is ok, nice atmosphere and decent food, but has gone downhill over the years. Catherine Lombardi has good cocktails, but is basically an overpriced southern Italian restaurant, with arrogant management. Stage Left, same owners as Catherine Lombardi, also not the place to go.

+1 with BigGeorge's recommendations.

another +1 on BigGeorge's recommendations. My second option would be Clydz.

let me know how you liked Pad Thai.

I'm visiting their sister restaurant in Piscataway (near Edison border) today which I feel is head & shoulders better - more indigenous peasant food is served at 4S (imho).

I always like Pad Thai. It is one of my favorites and much more convenient than 4 seasons which I also like a lot.

Old Bay on Church Street. Great New Orleans style food.
