A TWO
TWENT A Red Bank jewel enters a second decade, with a season that looks forward and back
That numerous hands went up around the tiers and balconies of the 350-seat room was testament to the bond between the Monmouth County audience and the Two River Theater Company, the professional stage troupe founded in 1995 by Dr. Rechnitz, then a professor of American literature at Monmouth University. Humbled perhaps by its proximity to Broadway—as well as to its access to established Garden State stages like the McCarter and George Street—the local theater scene was traditionally one of summer-stock musicals and earnestly produced community shows, before the curtain went up on that production of A.R. Gurney’s “Cocktail Hour” on the West Long Branch campus. The Two River Theater Company—named for, if not originally based in, the greater Red Bank area—went on to spend several seasons at Manasquan’s Algonquin Arts Theatre, even as an ambitious capital campaign began to transform the former Bridge Avenue site of Blaisdell Lumber Yard into a performing arts center project that would be the envy of any mid-size city or school on the map. In May of 2005, Joan and Bob had the experience of standing before an opening night audience during the company’s inaugural show in Red Bank, the Rechnitz-directed golden-age Kaufman and Hart comedy “You Can’t Take It With You.”
Since that landmark evening, TRTC has worked to take its place among the region’s premier not-for-profit companies, under the stewardship of Artistic Directors that have ranged from Jonathan Fox (who capped his tenure with a comprehensive Samuel Beckett Festival and a well-received “Godot”), to Aaron Posner (who brought master illusionist Teller to town to co-direct a bloody bracing “Macbeth”)—to current AD John Dias, the veteran of Joseph Papp’s Public Theater whose comparatively soft-spoken style masks an enormous well of producing expertise, and a well-earned reputation as a facilitator who brings top talent together and makes things happen (see the top-tier productions of the August Wilson dramas “Jitney” and “Two Trains Running,” directed by Tony winner Ruben Santiago-Hudson). Dr. Rechnitz and Dias shared the podium for the June announcement of what will be the 20th anniversary season of Two River Theater Company, a slate of mainstage productions that kicks off on September 14 with a new look at the 1939 fantasy “On Borrowed Time.” Paul Osborn’s moving bit of Americana (in which an old man whose concern for his orphaned grandson inspires him to cheat Death himself) is set to be directed by a stage and screen legend who has been a familiar face in the audience for many a TRTC production—81 year old Joel Grey. The actor who won both a Tony and an Academy Award for his portrayal of the Master of Ceremonies in “Cabaret” will be revisiting a play in which he appeared at the age of nine—and he’ll be joining a roster of prominent Photo: Michal Daniel

“
et’s have a show of hands,” asked Dr. Robert M. Rechnitz, as he surveyed the capacity crowd inside the state-of-the-art auditorium that bears the names of his wife Joan and himself. “Who saw our production of ‘The Cocktail Hour’ twenty years ago?”

professionals (including Pulitzer Prize winners Edward Albee, Sheldon Harnick and Suzan-Lori Parks; stage-screen stars Alec Baldwin, Philip Seymour Hoffman and David Hyde Pierce; music legends Judi Collins and Jackson Browne, and local-dudesmade-good Bruce Springsteen and Kevin Smith) who have made the trip to Bridge Avenue, whether as creative contributor, special event guest or appreciative audience member. With shows presented in both Two River’s mainstage Rechnitz and “black box” Huber theater spaces, the 2013-2014 season boasts Obie-winning solo pieces (Martin Moran’s “The Tricky Part,” presented in repertory with his follow-up “All the Rage”); a welcome revival of “Trouble in Mind” by 1950s African American playwright Alice Childress, and the solo directorial debut of Tony nominated actor Michael Cumpsty, for Wendy Wasserstein’s “Third.” The nine-month program also includes an original drama workshopped at TRTC’s annual “Crossing Borders” festival (“Pinkolandia”), a revised encore of the company-commissioned family musical “A Wind in the Willows Christmas,” and another much-anticipated effort from that fellow named Shakespeare (“As You Like It”).

It’s a slate that Dias frames as “honoring the mission, and reflecting the history, of this theater…we want to make sure we’re doing work that you want to see.” It’s an observation echoed by Bob Rechnitz—who looked back to those first baby-steps endeavors to bring quality drama to an area that was even then still regarded as a largely seasonal community—and commented, “we defied the odds then…and we’ve been absolutely delighted ever since.” Full details on subscriptions, group and single-ticket purchases for the upcoming season of Two River Theater presentations (as well as for summertime special events that include the return of Crossing Borders and the Summer Jazz Café) are available by calling 732.345.1400 or TRTC.ORG 9

T
hough they’ve often been regarded as “just a summer love,” Shore Flicks and Riverside Gardens have turned out to be as winning a couple as ever had their first front-seat date at a drive-in double feature.
While drive-in movies have largely gone the way of cars with lights that can be turned off, the outdoor movie night is alive and well—and nowhere more so than on the sculpted terraces and waterfront walkways of Red Bank’s Riverside Gardens Park. When the summer night is calm and comfortable, and all the elements align—the big sound system and the bigger screen; the great sight lines from the sloping amphitheater lawn and the snack-stand patio; the heart-of-town hustle and bustle that somehow only makes the shared experience that much more fun—there’s nothing quite like it. Throw in those complimentary sunsets over the Navesink River, and you’ve got the makings of a memorable and free family outing. “It’s just picture perfect, a beautiful backdrop,” says T.J. Brustowicz, owner of the company that’s been screening films at Riverside Gardens since the summer of 2008—and whose summertime slate has since expanded to a schedule of 65 screenings in 15 Monmouth and Ocean County communities. While most other people spend their warm-weather evenings relaxing and taking advantage of the season’s delights, Brustowicz and a technical assistant work every one of those outdoor events, taking “maybe two nights off” between June 21 and Labor Day—and setting up their 16-foot screen in locales that range from suburban community centers to some of the most Sandyravaged waterfronts on the coast. It’s an endeavor that’s become an “almost year round” gig for the Tinton Falls resident—one that evolved from sporting event parties in which “we’d tape giant TVs to carts and roll them into people’s back yards.” The introduction of upgraded video

projection systems and large-scale inflatable screens allowed the veteran radio and music marketing professional to build an operation that also does a brisk business in birthday parties, school shows, fundraisers and sports venues (a massive 40 foot screen is set up for sites that accommodate crowds in the thousands). Featured films tend toward recent releases of animated comedies and superhero adventures (with PG-13 defining the ratings limit for the all-ages crowds), but there are also a number of “retro” classics—retro in this case meaning the 1980s era favorites (“Back to the Future,” “Ferris Bueller,” “The Goonies”) that most parents of young children thrilled to back in their own school days. “Even if you’ve seen a movie for years on TV, it’s always a treat to watch it on a large screen, with an audience,” says Brustowicz, who will also be reaching back to the 1970s for encore favorites (“Rocky,” “Grease,” “Willy Wonka”), a firstever showing of “Monty Python and the Holy Grail,” and the film that’s “becoming a Jersey Shore tradition”—the original “Jaws,” which this year will be shown as a special eight-night “Shark Week” presentation that takes it from Sea Bright (August 18), Atlantic Highlands (August 19) and Red Bank (August 20), to Long Beach Island, Asbury Park and Matawan, scene of the 1916 shark attacks that inspired author Peter Benchley to pen the best-selling novel. “Last year’s Jaws on the Beach events drew upwards of 1500 people,” says Brustowicz, whose first Shore Flicks presentations were done in partnership with local Parks and Recreation departments—and who, in the wake of budget cuts that have tended to target these sorts of “non-essential” services—now funds licensing fees and other costs through corporate sponsors (Comcast Xfinity is the presenting sponsor for the whole 2013 series) and individual entities (Red Bank RiverCenter, Two River Theater, Red Bank Flavour) in each participating municipality.

“It’s free for the towns, free for the audience—and it’s a way for us to do more for the community,” adds the Shore Flicks founder, who conducts on-going drives for local food banks at each event, and whose major sponsors are also supporting the Sandy recovery nonprofits RAINE Foundation and Sea Bright Rising. Best of all, “we’ve only been rained on twice in all these years, to the extent that we had to shut everything down…I can’t quite control the weather just yet, but I do have a great weatherman (from nynjpaweather.com) on call, which is certainly a cool sounding thing to say!”

Follow the Music O by SEAN MARSHALL
n a summer evening in Red Bank, when the pavement has cooled and the night gives shelter from the heat, couples and small groups of friends seem to form from beneath the cracks of the sidewalk to meet Broad Street’s lights and sounds. Stepping out into the night—any night here—there’s life to be found. On stages. In galleries. In the air. And always, in the music playing in the parks, on street corners, through doorways and windows, in big and small venues all over town. On Front Street, the doors and windows are wide open at The Downtown. A band plays downstairs and regulars at the bar join in singing songs they’ve heard before. Upstairs, an acoustic folk group plays a set on the main stage. They’ve brought out a strong crowd tonight, some diners from downstairs who heard good things about the music and made their way up the stairs. At a back table, a red-haired woman named Kate checks her watch. “Jamian’s!” and decides to head to Monmouth Street for the midnight special…food, drink, and reggae. She grabs her jacket, taps her curly-haired friend, Kerry, on the shoulder, and out they go. “Jammin’! Random Test tonight!” Kerry yells. “3 dollar Coronas!” Kate reminds her, and they both laugh. If they weren’t craving reggae, they could have headed west to The Galleria to hear an acoustic combo at Taste where songs bounce off the red brick to make even the smallest band sound full. They were there last week when the music fit the mood just right. But tonight, it’s Jamian’s where an island-summer feeling swims into their ears and makes the bar feel like a destination getaway. “The usual—two coronas?” The bartender puts a lime in the neck of each bottle and the friends turn to watch the band. “Every little thing/Is gonna be alright!” they sing and tip their bottles.

jam night hosted by Rob Dye, George Ott and Michael Ghegan began back in the late 90s at the Downtown Cafe. Over the years, hundreds of musicians have come down and sat in with the house band, showcased their own original material, or just joined the ever-growing crowd of listeners. Great local talent such a Pat Guadagno, Brian Kirk, Matt O’Ree, Chuck Lambert, Melissa Chill, Linda Chorney and many others are regular visitors to the open mic. We’ve even had the surprise down-ins from Richie Sambora and other Bon Jovi members, legendary drummer Steve Ferrone (Tom Petty) and artists joining us after their show at the nearby legendary Count Basie Theatre. The jam has been successful because of its loose, friendly atmosphere and positive collective attitude towards live performance. The jam offers a unique opportunity for musicians from all walks of the strata to get together and combine their ideas. The Open Mic has grown into a fantastic social scene for networking, collaborating, finding potential new band members and even professionally recording your material. Magical moments happen when different players are brought together on stage to create music. In 2009 the Open Mic moved to Jamian’s Food And Drink at 79 Monmouth Street where it is continuing to build on its success. It is the center of the Red Bank music scene and the spot to be on Sunday Night.

PAW S FOR A CAUSE A DOG’S TALE
by OLIVIA IANNONE
When Megan Prenderville and Mike Harper’s beloved dog, Chopper, was diagnosed with cancer in April 2012, the couple—owners of Frame to Please in The Galleria—were devastated. But when sympathetic pet lovers and animal volunteer workers began to appear unexpectedly in their shop, Megan found herself inspired and drawn towards a higher purpose: to unify and provide aid for animals and the people who love them. Within the four weeks Chopper had been given to live, Paws for a Cause had been born.

Little more than a year later, Megan’s inspiration now occupies a well-loved kiosk across the hall from her framing business—and Chopper is still going strong. Paws for a Cause sells items for both human and canine use, from bandannas to artwork to candles that smell pleasant to both species. All products are made in the U.S. and most are created by local artisans, many of whom also donate their personal earnings to charity. The project has already earned over $2000 from sales and monetary donations. At first, all donations went to the Save US Pets Foundation, a charity that raises money for owners who cannot afford emergency medical care for their pets, thus saving the animals from avoidable euthanasia. The list of recipients has expanded to include Project Blue Collar, a movement that celebrates and supports rescue dogs, and The K9 Sgt. Denny Project, which ships supplies, toys and treats to military dogs that receive only minimal supplies from the armed forces.
Megan Prenderville
“It’s not only people helping pets. It’s people helping people,” says Megan. Paws for a Cause has, also, become a place where pet lovers meet and share stories. Some conversations, Megan says, become so emotional that she now keeps a tissue box on the shelves. Chopper and Yoshi, (Megan and Mike’s other dog) come to work every day to watch over things and collect smiles and scratches from passers-by. “The whole Galleria has embraced the dogs,” says Megan. A veterinarian told Mike and Megan that Chopper’s daily “job” likely gives him a purpose in life, which in turn contributes to his stable condition, along with receiving weekly treatments. Megan said that, after a recent episode during which Chopper was nearly put to sleep, “he just went right over to that store and plopped down like, ‘this is my purpose.’ He kind of belongs to The Galleria.”

WHEN IT COMES TO SURGERY, N EXPERIENCE MATTERS. ESPECIALLY YOURS.
by CAITLIN COYLE for Riverview Medical Center
ot many people want to go to the hospital. Not many people want to have surgery. When many of us hear the words surgery and experience, we automatically think of the surgeon’s professional experience—where they trained, their level of training, and how many surgeries they perform each year. While these are all very important, it is also important to think about your own experience.
In the last year, Riverview Medical Center has undergone expansive renovations as part of the Life. Changing campaign to create a 22,000 square-footcenter for surgical excellence to meet the needs of the community as a response to the 20% surgical volume increase in the past three years. While the renovations have created a larger space with more operating rooms and more advanced surgical equipment, the experience patients have John Bolsch | Vascular Surgery, Hazlet when they go to Riverview continues to be at the forefront of their care. A surgical experience is not complete without four things: extraordinary surgeons; an exceptional environment; small incisions; and, small touches.
“My entire experience at Riverview was nothing but positive. Surgery is never a happy experience, but the staff and surgeon were phenomenal from the time I checked in for preoperative testing through surgery and my return home.”
A successful surgery is not possible without the expertise and experience of your clinical team. Riverview’s surgical team is a skilled and specialized group, made up of surgeons who Theresa & John Bolsch have trained at prestigious institutions, and are skilled in the latest procedures and surgical techniques, including minimally invasive surgery—a less invasive surgical approach that reduces the size of the incision. More and more surgeons at Riverview are using less invasive approaches which, generally, result in less pain and scarring, speeds recovery, and can reduce the incidence of post-surgical complications. While the surgeons at Riverview deliver the great care, it is often the small touches that make any experience pleasant, and that is no different when it comes to a hospital experience. Environment, communication, stellar service, and connection to loved ones all play a role in the healing process. “At Riverview we believe your only focus should be on getting better, and with services like Concierge Care and comfortable waiting rooms where you can watch television before your surgery, our patients are able to get better while still being able to enjoy every day things from their lives,” says Timothy J. Hogan, FACHE, regional president for Riverview Medical Center and Bayshore Community Hospital. “We know our patients and their surgeons have a choice when it comes to surgery, so we consistently look for ways to provide a great experience to compliment the already great care provided by our surgeons and team members.”

Blue Stove Antiques
TIME & AGAIN by OLIVIA IANNONE
B
lue Stove Antiques is a business that draws customers from far and near. Patrons come from Florida and Fair Haven, Long Island and Little Silver, Pennsylvania and points beyond to Ike Burstein’s store on River Road. Ike says it is because of the unique niche Blue Stove occupies as one of the leading vintage and antique watch dealers in New Jersey. “We’re a well-reputed vendor of authentic antiques from around the country and the world,” he explains, “but our strength lies in the area of watches and estate jewelry.” The store was founded in 1973 by Ike’s wife, Myra—an experienced antique buff and collector. In 2002, Myra retired. The Bursteins’ love of antiques, however, existed long before their shop. “We went to antique places all over the world,” Ike recalls “England, France, Italy, Mexico…you name it.”
From top: re-issue of the watch Charles Lindbergh used to cross the Atlantic; Patek Philippe watch; diamond & sapphire earrings, commissioned by Ike Burstein; Ike Burstein; the unique and special at Blue Stove Antiques.
At Blue Stove, there’s a place for any antique that has value and can be verified as authentic. Every item for sale has been appraised, either by Ike or other qualified experts. The eclectic selection ranges from period furniture to a Civil War pistol, but it is the collection of fine watches and estate and precious jewelry that has built Blue Stove’s reputation for the unique and special.
Classic timepieces by Rolex, Cartier and Patek Philippe share the showcase with a re-issue of the watch Charles Lindbergh used to navigate the crossing of the Atlantic (pictured above)—one of only eighty produced. Modern timepieces are in abundance, as well. In the fine jewelry department, Blue Stove offers timeless estate and heirloom pieces in their original settings, or reset to new designs commissioned by customers, or created by Ike and exclusive from Blue Stove. He also restores jewelry and can work with you to update your own pieces with new designs. Expert jewelry and watch repair and restoration are also services offered at Blue Stove. “Many jewelry stores send people with broken watches or jewelry to us all the time,” says Ike. And if you intend to sell any of your own gold or unwanted jewelry, he suggests you bring it to Blue Stove, for sale or trade. Appraisals are free. Serious watch collectors, avid antique enthusiasts, shoppers looking for something unique and special…all find their way to Blue Stove where Ike and his staff are there to greet them.

hat’s beer got to do with it, Tina Turner might famously have sung were she thinking of hoppy high-gravity libations or shiny 30-barrel brights instead of, well, love. But for the Carton cousins, Chris and Augie, beer has much to do with it, with their lives— enough so that their love of a fine-crafted brew would move them from spirited West Coast Double IPA-inspired what-if-and-why-not deliberations by a fire pit in the Hartshorne Woods, where they both live and grew up, to actually making beer themselves. What they’ve created, with the help of friend and brew-wizard Jesse Ferguson, is no back-closet operation. Carton Brewing Company is a small, independent craft brewery in a renovated Atlantic Highlands warehouse with top quality Newlands equipment they hope, this year, to see produce 2,000 barrels (that’s 4,000 kegs) of small-batch beers so good they’re already in some 180 bars in New Jersey—not to mention 20 in Manhattan, 10 in Brooklyn, and 15 in Philadelphia. As Augie understatedly allows: “We’ve been well received most everywhere we’ve gone.” They’ve gotten there in just two years. If the Cartons are all about community (four generations in Atlantic Highlands; four families today on Hartshorne Road alone; a brewery a stone’s throw from their grandfather’s former law firm on First Avenue), the beer is all about locale. Take Carton Brewing’s robust American ale, Red Rye Returning. Piney American hops. Sturdy malts. A touch of rye to coax out the spices. What you don’t see are a couple of kids—first cousins, fast friends—tearing around on bikes down a long dead-end road towards home; or out fishing in the Navesink River with a pal whose father explains to them that, when you come back after a day on the water, you want to stay in the channel by keeping the red buoys on the starboard side of the boat. Or consider Monkey Chased the Weasel, a sour 3.9% ABV ale born of a need to do something with all those berries, dropped from a giant mulberry tree behind the brewery—a century-plus red brick building that originally was a warehouse for a tent community, later serving as a candy store among other duties—and squash-tracked inside. “We’re getting inspiration, in this case, literally, from our own backyard,” says Chris. This particular beer is “meant for quaffing when there is no reason to avoid direct sunlight on balmy summer days.”
Need a better reason? There’s the unique water Atlantic Highlands and the brewery use, pumped from aquifers pure and deep. Carton Brewing isn’t about making money, per se. It’s day jobs that make the bread when the brewery doesn’t, part of a forward thinking business plan that promises to move the business forward, if not keep it comfortably running in place. Chris, 43, is a commercial litigator with K&L Gates in Newark. Augie, 42, is a fixed income broker for Tullett Prebon in Jersey City, with other careers that have included restaurant/bar work and film production. They both graduated high school from Middletown South. They both work long weeks. “We wanted to raise our kids here, as we had been raised, and that’s what I’m doing,” Chris explains, “in the same house that I was raised in.” Augie moved with his family to within 300 yards of the house he lived in as a kid, not far from Chris. So what’s beer got to do with it? About five years ago, Chris was re-modeling his house and installed a kegerator stocked with the likes of that West Coast Double IPA. (What irked them early on was that none of their favorite beers came from New Jersey). Enter Jesse Ferguson, Augie’s wife’s best friend’s husband. Augie, in 2004, had gifted Jesse a homebrew kit. When visiting the Cartons, Jesse would bring, from Brooklyn, his latest creations. He joined the couch and fire-pit dialogues at Chris’ house. “We loved these big kind of fruity American hoppy beers,” Augie recalls, “but, at eight percent ABV, if you love them so much you drink a third, your night’s over. Why can’t there be a four-percent version of it?” The problem was presented to Jesse, who said he couldn’t see why not. They don’t plan to grow the brewery for growth’s sake alone; they like things as they are—the business employs eight of their friends and enjoys an enviable regional reputation—though they are running out of space. They stick with five “full time” beers, introducing small-batch specials when the mood strikes. Chris is working on a can for their popular Boat Beer. And they craft custom brews for select area restaurants. “We’re right where we need to be,” says Augie. “The brewery is a fantastic creative outlet and a lot of fun, and Chris and I are still people who love to get together and drink a great beer. Now we’re drinking our own.”

THE LITTLE SHOP THAT COULD
Nancy Burton, Eileen Ricco, and Jenna Morris.
P
lants like water, but not this much. A marker on an inside wall at In The Garden is about five feet off the floor, a reminder of a storm that destroyed the Highlands florist shop and most everything in it. Just two years prior, owner Nancy Thomas Burton had moved the business, launched in 2005, from a nearby address to 69 Waterwitch Avenue because she loved the brighter location at “a kind of happening end of town.” Then Sandy struck, the floodwaters receded, and two new partners came on board— Eileen Ricco and Jenna Morris. The new team put the place back together. Against all obstacles (Nancy’s totaled house being but one), the shop reopened for business in February. “It was like a new beginning,” explains Nancy, a Highlands native who studied at the New York Botanical Garden School of Professional Horticulture. “You know that whole ‘New Jersey Stronger than the Storm’ slogan the state is coming out with? Well that’s us.” The

three live in Highlands, and share a love for flowers and plants and a blooming florist trade that does it all: retail, wedding and event floral design, garden design, interior plantscaping, indoor and outdoor plant maintenance. While Nancy, Eileen, and Jenna are all considered owner-designers, they often
quite long for the owners—it’s the florist’s maintenance and design services that really set them apart. They were proud to be among the landscapers selected by the Visiting Nurse Association for their recent VNA Designer Show House event at the historic Hartshorne Mansion in Little Silver. “It was great exposure for us—we were the newbies— and very exciting,” says Nancy.

Jenna (a former media buyer at a New York ad agency who was born with a talented green thumb) does flower designs, floral inside jobs; Eileen (currently studying at NYBG and whose on-the-job training included five years cutting grass for a landscaper) handles most of the outside jobs and is, says Jenna, “a terrific landscape garden designer;” Nancy excels in the middle of both. At the end of the day—sometimes
Because the owners believe in the importance of shopping local, they use New Jersey plant and flower growers as well as local wholesalers. “We want to support them just like we want people to support us,” says Nancy. The shop is open Thursday through Sunday.

THEN Gertrude Ederle
The Twin Lights—a National Historic Site—was completed atop the Navesink Highlands in 1862.
the first woman to swim the English Channel, spent her childhood summers in Highlands and trained for her channel swim in the swift currents of the Shrewsbury River. On August 6, 1926, at the age of 19, Gertrude (Trudy) Ederle broke the previous English Channell swim record and received a ticker-tape parade down Broadway in celebration. She went on to set 29 national and world amateur swim records and won a gold and two bronze medals for the U.S. swimming team in the 1924 Paris Olympics. Gertrude Ederele spent childhood summers in Highlands and would return over the years. The Gertude Ederle Park in Highlands overlooking the bridge was dedicated in her honor on August 14, 1975. She attended the ceremonies. In 2003, at 97, she came to the rededication and expressed her love for Highlands. The Highlands Garden Club maintains the flowerbeds and plantings.

Puffer-fish Chowda, the mascot
S
tep into 78 Bridge Avenue and you’ll be greeted by Chowda. “We’re all about fresh here. All about fresh!” Actually, that was Chef Glenn Kovacs speaking the fresh-caught guarantee to seafood lovers promised by The Chowda House owners, Roy and Mary Jennings. Chowda doesn’t say much himself. He’s the restaurant’s mascot, a puffer fish.
If the place feels more New England than New Jersey, it’s by design. Roy, a lifelong local (Middletown South H.S. Class of ’79), wanted a restaurant for the past thirty years. He and Mary previously ran a construction company, and own the building that houses The Chowda House of Red Bank.
“When Roy said he wanted to follow his dream of having a restaurant,” Mary explains, “I said, “Sure, let’s do it.’” Mary has lived in the area for twenty-five years, but has roots in Rhode Island, where they consider Manhattan Clam Chowder vegetable soup and don’t pronounce their “R’s” (ergo, “chowda”). She brought Roy up there on vacation, and he got hooked on the whole fish-and-chips, invigorating nautical feel of it. Back home, there was no local place to “get a quick fix of good fresh seafood,” Mary says. “Not frozen. That’s key.” Having decided on a nautical theme, Roy, a master carpenter, gutted the building, and started the build out using reclaimed materials. The hardwood floors were salvaged from the former Monmouth Antique Building. Most of the wood, inside and outside the restaurant, is from
Mussels Marinara Steamed Prince Edward Island mussels finished with house-made tomato ragu served with garlic bread…served alone or over linguini.
trees salvaged from Hurricane Sandy. He finished many wood interior features to look like steel fixtures on a ship. A casual, clamshell graveled, out-door dining area has umbrellapicnic tables with an outside Raw Bar that is open Friday and Saturday nights (Raw Bar is available everyday from the kitchen). The space accommodates fifty and can be rented for private parties and special events. “Our prices are very reasonable,” says Mary, “and there’s something Roy Jennings, center, in front of—and surrounded by—his dream House. for everyone.” Try Rhode Island favorites—Clam Cakes or Stuffies (three stuffed clams) or the Whole Fried Clam Platter (“No clam strips here! Perfectly fried, crispy whole Steamer clams.”). The creamy Classic New England Clam Chowda, cup or bowl, is from a centuries-old family recipe. New dishes and soups are regulars on the menu, with “Extra-Specials” offered everyday. Non-seafood dishes include the Chicken Fillet Platter and Land Lubber Soup made fresh daily. Everything on the menu may be ordered steamed or fried and is available eat-in or take-out. The restaurant is cash only (ATM inside), BYOB. And a reminder from Mary “to please check our website for daily specials!”

WINE WISDOM
EVERYTHING’S
COMING UP
Rosés
by CORT SMITH
S
ummertime means fun-time, often accompanied by a good wine— for as Ben Franklin so wisely put it, “Wine is constant proof that God loves us and loves to see us happy.” But what type of wine for what type of occasion? And while the least quality wines will cost the least amount, is the opposite therefore true?
“The reds will come out during a nor'easter, because people want to get warmed up,” explains Donnie Woodham, manager of Rumson Wine & Spirits, who with veteran wine manager Dick Wilson keeps the store at 5 West River Road stocked with over 20,000 SKUs (stock keeping units) of wine, beer, and liquor. But when the skies clear, red wine—along with whites like Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, and Pinot Gris/Grigio—will take a back seat this summer to rosé, says Donnie. “You’re out on a boat, you’re on the beach, it’s warm, you want to unwind and chill out—this is what you want to have. The rosés are very hot right now. Everybody wants them. They’re light, refreshing, and they go with everything from meat and fish to salads.”
Donnie Woodham, manager of Rumson Wine & Spirits
Donnie, believes “you’ve got to look at the wine business with open eyes. Just because someone’s drinking a twelve dollar Pinot Grigio doesn’t mean it’s a bad wine. You might not like it, but there’s a million other people that do. There’s a wine out there for everybody.” This includes the rosés. Here are some, California and French, in varying prices ranges that Donnie recommends for enjoyment this summer.
Domaines Ott (founded in 1912 by Alsatian engineer Marcel Ott)—worldrenowned, this was a best-seller last summer. “The Hamptons go through this, and everybody wants what the Hamptons are drinking,” says Donnie. A bottle costs $39.99
Miraval (from Correns, the first organic village in France). This rosé (at $25.99 per bottle) is a joint venture between Famille Perrin and Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie.
Pomponette, which at $16.99 per bottle, Donnie believes is this season’s “best bang for the buck” at Rumson Wine & Spirits. “Domaines is known throughout the world. In this area, Pomponette is huge,” he says. “We can barely keep it on the shelf.”
Then there’s 90 Plus Cellars, which has upwards of 60 different varietals, many in the sub-$20 range. “The company goes to vineyards and buys the leftover juice,” Donnie explains. “They can’t tell you where it came from, but they guarantee that the juice rates 90-plus points [out of 100]. If you can get past the ugly label, this is great wine!” He also recommends Jelly Jar ($19.99) and Etude ($26.99), both from Napa Valley. “Rumson has probably one of the most diverse palates in the state,” notes Donnie. “We’ve got people who drink nine dollar wines and people who drink five hundred dollar wines. So we have to make every customer extremely happy.”

Cancer
by ALICE LOFFREDO
O
n June 25, 2013 Jupiter, the largest planet in our solar system, started settling its outgoing, confident and expansive energy into the watery, sensitive, nurturing, inwardturned sign of Cancer. This is a special, once-in-twelve-year combination of sign and planet, because Jupiter is what is called “exalted” in Cancer: at its most comfortable, functioning with ease, and positioned to express itself in the most positive way. In other words, the best qualities of the planet and sign are encouraged in each other, and the negative expressions of those energies are controlled and minimized.
JUPITER CRUISES INTO CANCER June 25, 2013 – July 16, 2014
For example, Jupiter tends to focus on the big picture and faraway horizons, and is often oblivious to the details of everyday life. Cancer, on the other hand, is all about concern with the immediate inner, intimate circle of family, friends and tribe. Filtering Jupiter’s energy through the sign of the crab softens and grounds it, encouraging awareness of others and responsiveness to what’s going on in the world of the here and now. Likewise, Jupiter’s confident, outgoing energies draw Cancer out of its subjective shell and encourage optimism and faith instead of worry and concern. Jupiter
This year you can experience an expansion (Jupiter) of sensitivity (Cancer) in all of your relationships
Jupiter’s expansive effect on the nurturing qualities of Cancer could wreak havoc with the waistline!
If we are open to it, during this year we can experience an expansion (Jupiter) of emotional supportiveness, nurturing, and sensitivity (Cancer) in all of our relationships, and a deepening of family connections in particular. We can increase our understanding of how vast societal and global concerns (Jupiter) affect individuals, families, and community (Cancer). Jupiter loves to travel far and wide, but in this year will be more inclined to tuck the planetary passport in a safe place and circle closer to the family hearth. We can expect to be drawn to a more home-centered life, and in some cases, the family can literally grow in size. It’s a good time to have a family reunion, update the photo albums, explore genealogy, and cook up some good old-fashioned comfort food. (Just be mindful of the fact that Jupiter’s expansive effect on the nurturing qualities of Cancer could wreak havoc with the waistline!) So hop on board, as the “Greater Benefic,” the universal source of good fortune, benevolence, and optimism, cruises into Cancer, where it will stay until July 16, 2014.
