Fusion Plate Asian Cuisine – Ocean City, NJ

#SmallBitesRadio has been named the #14 Top Hospitality Programs on the Planet in 2020 and 2021 and #Bluejeanfood.com has been named #23 Top Philadelphia Lifestyle Blogs, Websites & Influencers of 2021

Situated right in the heart of Ocean City’s downtown shopping district is Fusion Plate Asian Cuisine. They offer a really nice varied menu at decent prices. I enjoyed their pork fried rice, chicken with broccoli, shrimp beef chow fun, and shaking beef. Everything I had was delicious and one of better Asian cuisine meals in the shore area. I look forward to trying more things next time.

Looking to get creative in the kitchen? Any ingredient in your fridge or pantry could be the secret to cooking success. How? Chef Kelly Senyei Siberio the creator and founder of Just a Taste.com a food site frequented by millions of people around the world each month will chat about her highly anticipated cookbook ‘THE SECRET INGREDIENT COOKBOOK: 125 Family-Friendly Recipes with Surprisingly Easy Twists’ from Houghton Mifflin Harcourt. Every one of her recipes has a secret ingredient, something totally unexpected that takes a dish from common to extraordinary. Some of the 125 tried-and-tested recipes are surprisingly simple, like her Vanilla Bean Drop Doughnuts made with Greek yogurt, or the Sweet and Tangy Baked Chicken Wings made with blackberry jam. Other recipes are nothing short of genius. Kelly Senyei is a host on the Food Network Kitchen app, appears regularly on Home & Family on the Hallmark Channel USA, previously worked at Condé Nast where she launched the Gourmet Live app and was an editor and on-air talent at Gourmet and Epicurious.

With international travel restrictions easing a bit for fully vaccinated individuals everyone has the taste of travel coming back. Inspired by Iceland was one of the first to reopen so that everyone can once again visit Blue Lagoon Iceland, Iceland Airwaves, as well as their many natural beauty and wonders and what better way to get into the mood than to have a preview what you can experience there right in your own home. We will talk to Björn Steinar Jónsson, Saltverk’s founder and engineer turned restaurateur. Saltverk is hand-harvested sustainable sea salt using a long-forgotten 17th-century process from the remote Visit Westfjords – Iceland. Using 100% geothermal energy and only one raw material — the pristine seawater of the region — Saltverk is one of the few entirely sustainable flake sea-salt producers in the world. The pure flavor and ingredients set Saltverk’s salts apart. Saltverk can be found in the kitchens of some of the world’s most renowned restaurants. Then we will be joined by Kjartan Gíslason the founder of Omnom Chocolate. Omnom is Iceland’s first and only “bean-to-bar” chocolate maker. Omnom’s core ingredients include: Single-origin cocoa beans from Madagascar, Tanzania and Nicaragua; organic sugar cane; and natural Icelandic milk powder directly from farmers to further help assess the social, environmental and economic impact of its purchases. The factory itself runs on 100% geothermal energy, making Omnom a leading bean-to-bar producer using renewable energy.

Coming back to America we will welcome on the show James Caverly the CEO of Booskerdoo Coffee & Baking Co. In 2009, James and Amelia Caverly had no idea what a staple their blurry dream would become when they decided to make their first pound of roasted coffee beans in their one-bedroom NYC apartment. Fast forward to 2020, six locations, a franchising program, and 2 kids later, Booskerdoo Coffee & Baking Co. is one of the Jersey Shore’s most beloved coffee shops. Their mission is a simple one: serve a delicious cup of freshly roasted coffee and fantastic homemade baked goods and ultimately, make people happy. Their pro-people outlook, inclusiveness, and free-spirited nature (which is telling by their name) are what has made Booskeroo such a success over the years, with growth on the way.

You say you STILL NEED MORE!!! Don’t forget we still have our regular weekly segments from author, Courier-Post nightlife correspondent and The New York Times recognized blogger John Howard-Fusco for foodie news of the week, Chef Barbie Marshall who is a Chef Gordon Ramsay Hell’s Kitchen Season 10 finalist and has appeared on Season 17 of FOX Hell’s Kitchen #AllStars as well named Pennsylvania’s most influential chef by Cooking Light will delight us with her observation of the week, highly acclaimed and respected Vegan Chef Christina Martin will delight with her ‘Healthy Bite’ of week giving nourishing and wholesome advice, and a joke of the week from legendary joke teller Jackie “The Joke Man” Martling of The Howard Stern Show fame.

Cilento Sandwich Company & Valente’s Italian Specialties – Haddonfield, NJ

Cilento Sandwich Company & Valente’s Italian Specialties – Haddonfield, NJ

Fyi – This place now has a new concept called Valente’s Cucina BYOB so the below is now longer valid, but they may keep many aspects of the past.

Sitting inside of Valente’s Italian Specialties the business Cilento Sandwich Company runs out of the same space. You order online from Valente’s Italian Specialties website, choose either pick-up or delivery and the time. The experience is seamless, service was very friendly, and portions are generous with reasonable prices.  I had the Traditional cheesesteak made of thin-sliced fresh beef and cheese served on half of a Sarcone’s long loaf and the Corrado sandwich which is chicken cutlet, fresh mozzarella, house-roasted peppers, extra virgin olive oil, and balsamic vinegar. Able to order from Valente’s Italian Specialties on the same order I decided to give them a try and had their anise pizzelles and the ricotta cannoli cream.
