Monthly Roundup: September's Top Posts

To close each month, we'll do a quick roundup of the not-to-miss posts. In a blog with so much fascinating content, it could be easy to miss one or two good posts.

If you need a break from thinking about that Phillies loss tonight, take a look back at some of our best content from September.

• Senor Crusty joins the team and introduces a fun new feature, When I Googled. Check out monogram turkey platter and pierogi dinner.
• To mark the end of the shore season, Saucy reviews a few spots in Wildwood and Cape May: Mack's Pizza, Nino's Family Restaurant and Cabanas.
• It's that time of year again ... Oktoberfest, beerfest, beer dinner. Whatever the name of the event, the beer's the main attraction. Emmental reviews the Newtown Beerfest and Crusty interviews Spicy and Saucy about the fall beer dinner at Chap's with Joe Sixpack.
• Their season's only just begun, but some of us are already over them. Yep, we're talking about the Eagles. LOL, Saucy, LOL.
• We review Port Richmond's legendary pizza spot, Tacconelli's. And Ellio returns from his honeymoon with a report on pizza in Curacao.

Nino's Family Restaurant: A Fine Option for Italian in Wildwood

I'm not going to lie: When we were recently in Wildwood, I was not very excited when my Mom told us that we were going to go to Nino's Family Restaurant for dinner. First of all, the idea of Italian food in a Shore town doesn't exactly thrill me. It seems like the sort of place where you would simply want to get a pizza or some steaks or something. And then there is the fact that we were down there out of season. With so few people down there (even on a Labor Day weekend; the weather had driven a lot of people home), I found it hard to believe that the ingredients could be up to snuff. All this being said, I am not one to argue, especially when my Mom was going to be paying (thanks, Mom!).
