on the way, grab Pop's Garage

   Pop's Garage is another Marilyn Schlossbach sensation.This restaurant is located right on the boardwalk in Asbury Park just steps away from Langosta Lounge. When out for a stroll this is the perfect place to stop. 
  I started with a chicken empanada. The outside shell of the empanada was perfect, crunchy and flaky cooked just right. The shredded chicken inside the empanada was seasoned to perfection and I expected nothing less.
  For my meal I went with the chicken burrito, and the Cuban grilled corn. The burrito came full to the brim with rice, beans, and chicken. The shredded chicken was seasoned well and was proportionate to the rice and beans in the burrito. The Cuban grilled corn was interesting. I still haven't decided exactly how I feel about it. They cover it in a chipotle mayo, toss it in cheese and Mexican spices and then it's grilled. The combination of textures threw me off a little bit but in the end it was definitely something different for the taste buds.
  Pop's Garage is a very casual restaurant and the people who work there seem to have a lot of fun. It's a great place to enjoy amazing food on a budget and take in the sights of Asbury Park. Nestled right on the beach, and only moments away from places like convention hall, the infamous pinball museum and the beautiful beaches of Asbury Park you cannot go wrong with Pop's Garage. It definitely gets 4 forks, suggesting it to my friends while we lay on the beach.By the way, when you go there ask for Kelly, he will suggest great options and if you have any questions he's got all the answers.

Cheers!
