Exploring the world of Robotics! Princeton Ririxin School (PRS) is committed to providing the best STEAM education for children aged 5-14, inspiring children’s curiosity, learning, and creativity. At PRS we challenge students with an authentic, hands-on exploration into the world of robotics as they engage in imagining, designing, constructing, testing, observing, persevering, and learning. We believe that: interest and curiosity are the most basic motivations for learning; the art of education is to awaken the curiosity of the child so that they can pursue knowledge for themselves; imagination is more important than knowledge, the attempt is more important than the outcome, cooperation is more important than ability; and happiness is more important than achievement. Growth is not only about the study of knowledge, but also about an interest in continuous learning and exploration. 48 Carter Road. (609) 8961290; en.ririxinschool.org/ summer/start.

Terra Momo Restaurant Group
The Terra Momo Restaurant Group was formed by Raoul and Carlo Momo, who were originally inspired by their parents, Raul and Teresa Momo, who opened an Italian specialty food store in the mid 1970s. In 1982, the Group opened their first restaurant, Teresa II, in New Brunswick, eventually expanding their operations to include five dining concepts across multiple cultures, including Eno Terra, Mediterra, and Teresa Caffe in the Princeton area. While the flavors and themes vary, they all share the Terra Momo vision of quality, creativity, and exceptional service. Each setting has an individual sense of place. You can experience this in the colors of our custom-designed interiors, the smell of our artisan bread, the taste of locallygrown produce, and the selection of carefully chosen wines. The sounds of our music, and the care our staff provides, create a vibrant setting for great memories with family and friends.
Eno Terra is founded on the principle of the regionalism and the seasonality of what our local farmers grow, what our three-season harvest from our Eno Terra Canal Farm produces, what our fishermen catch, and the grass-fed beef and antibiotic-free poultry our producers offer. The two-floor restaurant in a completely renovated turn of the century farmhouse is the perfect location to consider us for your party, wedding anniversary, shower, rehearsal, or corporate event. 4484 Route 27, Kingston; enoterra@terramomo.com. At Mediterra our concept is simple: to ensure that our guests tap into the extraordinary cuisine of the nearly two dozen cultures surrounding the Mediterranean, with an emphasis on Italian and Spanish, while pairing locally-harvested ingredients with an ever-changing but always superb collection of fine and affordable wine, and then nurture your experience with a staff of restaurant professionals who welcome you as family. Enjoy the Mediterranean hospitality of our restaurant for your next event. We welcome all occasions from festive events, corporate breakfast meetings, and business dinners. We have a variety of customizable areas for your event. 29 Hulfish Street; mediterra@terramomo.com. The neighborhood trattoria style atmosphere at Teresa Caffé, named after our mother, Teresa Azario Momo, features simple Italian-inspired fare, unsurpassed seasonal pasta dishes, and pizzette,
and all of our baked goods are made fresh daily at our bakery. Every detail from the olive oil to the wine, from the basil to the artwork, is in keeping with our mother’s sensibility; that every guest feels that “this visit” is the best one yet. Teresa Caffe is the perfect destination to connect with family and friends, sip Italian wines, dine al fresco on a warm summer evening, and experience authentic Italian cuisine in the heart of Princeton at 23 Palmer Square East.
