How do you not love a roadhouse? You know the kind of place - often located on a rural stretch of road with a parking lot full of Harley Davidsons and simple, straightforward aesthetics that somehow add to the charm. A great roadhouse is the kind of spot where you can come as you are and thr…
When it comes to technically complex rock music, two of the biggest bands to ever wade in those waters are Rush and Primus. While they come from different generations, the former has greatly influenced the latter, and soon Primus will pay tribute to Rush in Atlantic City as its “A Tribute to…
THE BURLESQUE SHOW
Welcome to Appy Hour. In this new column I’m going to spend the summer stopping in at bars and restaurants where I can enjoy some apps and drinks in a relaxed setting. I’ll be kicking back with warm breezes and cool cocktails in spaces where the views are as tasty as the snacks. Come along a…
Memorial Day Weekend – it’s known as the unofficial kickoff to summer, and because of that, we think a proper celebration of some sort is in order. In other words, it’s not the weekend for sitting home and binge watching shows on Hulu or whatever other timesuckers you normally engage in. Mem…

With Memorial Day Weekend upon us, chances are you’ll end up attending at least one backyard barbecue over the next few days. And it’s likely you’ll end up eating a hockey puck-esque, not-so-tasty burger prepared by a vastly unqualified “chef” wearing an apron that says “Grill Sergeant,” or …
Do you feel the need for speed? If so, there’s no better option in Atlantic City than Showboat Raceway at Lucky Snake, which will celebrate its grand opening 11 a.m. Saturday, May 28.

Go to Steven Wright’s website and his biography reads: “I was born. When I was 23, I started telling jokes. Then I started going on television and doing films. That’s still what I am doing. The end.”
Like airports, your average ferry terminal isn’t a spot most people look forward to spending a lot of time in. It’s a place to pass through on your way to a grander destination. It’s a necessary and convenient function of one’s journey, but not much more — and it certainly doesn’t serve as a…
Editor’s note: This will be the last week for On a Roll for a little while, as the column is taking the summer off. Beginning next week, I will launch a pair of brand new food review columns that will alternate each week throughout the summer season — one will be about cocktails and apps and…
When you are served a plate of food, do you find yourself constantly reaching for a bottle of Tabasco? Are you visibly upset when the group you’re with requests the “mild” wings? Do you scoff at those who reach for a glass of milk after a bowl of five-alarm chili?
‘Proof’ at Fool Moon Theatre
Over a 40-plus-year career, Southside Johnny and the Asbury Jukes have never had a major hit single, and chances are most people wouldn’t recognize frontman Southside Johnny Lyon if they saw him walking down the street near his Jersey shore home.

This week’s Wine Q+A focuses on a wide spectrum of topics, from sparkling wine, to reds, to food pairing. While we often consider wine in terms of seasons and celebrations (for example, rosé in the spring, red in the winter, and bubbly for special occasions), there are no real rules surround…
