Boba galore
Richard C.

I remember a saying that one may not remember another's action's details but surely will remember one's effect one another's feelings. I didn't write down all entrees I happily got though descriptions are fried tilapia, squash in coconut, abodo, skewers (2 of both chicken and pork), and longasia (handmade sausages). Lumpias were sold out else I'd definitely gotten many of those. I'll come earlier than 14:40, 00:20 before their closing time, next time. Everything was delicious. The fried fish was so deeply satisfying after so long without such fried food. The squash (kombuchari, Japanese-style) in coconut was neither plain nor boring but such tastiness as to inspire my making it. The abodo was super delish with great depth, perfect balance of sour and savory and depth. The skewers were beloved by my parents who have wanted well made quality skewers since they want quality if eating out, and thankfully, the cooks didn't disappoint us. The longasia were awesome, handmade with the thoughtful recipe and the individual attention of this beloved eatery. I have so much to say about how the owners are so heartfelt and personally involved in the cooking and all operations. It meant so much to me to have wanted to come here for a solid year plus because it was a precious new entrant to the Flemington food scene, both for being so unique to central NJ and being in an area that's more known for its diners and fast food options. Location is super convenient just south of Costco Flemington on the busting NJ-31S with plentiful parking in the back and a few seconds' walk from any spot to their warm happy door. Their site has the well-known GDoc menu which changes daily, happily so to give color and interest even to regulars. I'll make it a point to eat here during my biweekly procurement runs.

Another catering yummy success from Philippine Cuisine! They're so accommodating with my family's dietary restrictions, and made all the flavors worked! Jun even delivered our catering orders- which made is so much easier for me!

My dad discovered an amazing Filipino place right in Flemington! I'm so surprised because Flemington is not a great place for good food (my opinion only). There's not a lot of selection, but their food had such great flavor and was not too oily. They have three different menus of sorts. When you walk in, there is a list posted of what pre-made hot foods you can choose from that day. From those hot foods, you can do either a buffet style option or a combo for $5.50 where you choose two things and it comes with rice. They also have a menu with one side listing items that are cooked to order: lumpia, crispy pata, halo halo, etc. On the other side, they have a very extensive catering menu where you can order a day in advance. For each thing, you can order either a half tray or full tray. We've only gotten the combos. So far I've tried the BBQ Pork Skewer (this adds an extra $0.50), Sinigang na Baboy (tamarind pork soup), Menudo, Longanisa, Shanghai lumpia, and Laing (taro leaves cooked in coconut milk and pork). My favorites are the longanisa and and laing. The sausage was absolutely delicious and reminds me of Taiwanese sausage. Very sweet and juicy. The laing was likewise delicious. My tastebuds were in heaven after the first bite. The leaves were cooked down until really soft and stewy. My favorite part was the delicious strong shrimp paste flavor in the laing. I could eat it all day every day. The longanisa and laing are my favorites, but everything else was delicious too. The pork skewer is slightly sweet and charred nicely. The tamarind soup has a sour taste. Usually tarmarind dishes are sweet and sour, but I like that this was sour only. They also freshly fry the lumpia so it's super crispy and not soggy from sitting there a while. In addition to hot foods, they also sell pastries from Christine's Bakery. I've tried the Hopia Mongo (mung bean pastry) and the Hopia Baboy (pork flavored pastry). The mung bean one is kind of bland, but the pork flavored one was so good. It's not actually filled with pork, but filled with this wintermelon filling instead. I guess they use lard in the pastry for the pork part. It tastes kind of like a Taiwanese sun cake, except with a flaky pastry. I'm so surprised that Flemington has this little hidden gem. If you're in the area, definitely stop by for some delicious Filipino food.

What a little gem in Flemington! I've ordered several dishes and they're delish! I've had arroz caldo, sinigang pork belly, adobo, egg rolls...deliciousness! Don't forget to try all their silog's for bfast or brunch! This place delivers the Philippine flavors to your home! Check out the take/out or delivery menu.... YES YOU CAN ORDER AND THEY WILL DELIVER TO YOUR HOME... SCORE for me!

Food and service are outstanding. The selection is fantastic as well. My only reason for giving 4…read morestars rather than 5 is because of the pricing. Basil Bandwagon is overpriced for their deli and many of the items they carry. At the same time it is very good quality stuff, just pricing is my only "complaint" so to say. I realize this is a very wealthy area, and Basil Bandwagon does put out some coupons here and there which is appreciated. It is certainly more of A $$$ store than $$ in which I think they would still be profitable, yet a bit more fair. In any circumstance if you're looking for good quality, very healthy stuff it is a great spot to try out. Also the portions on most things at the deli counter are very nice with their sandwiches. Staff is also very helpful & knowledgeable.

On my most recent visit to my hometown of Flemington, I took a trip to Basil Bandwagon to grab…read moresomething healthy (and vegan) for our long flight home back to the West coast. I learned that Basil Bandwagon has been open for 25 years. The year they opened, I was eating cold Pop Tarts while running to catch the school bus at 6:55am. In those days, fat-free was all the rage and considered "healthy" -- never mind all the refined carbs, loads of sugar, and preservatives. These days, I'm a strict vegetarian who is mostly vegan. I cook a lot and eat fresh produce daily. I appreciate that BB offers a healthy alternative to basically all the crap fast food otherwise available in the area. We ordered a wrap from the cafe and decided to eat it there. The seating was a counter with a few bar stools but it was clean if not spacious. My husband and I shared the "Freebird" wrap -- tofu-based mock chicken, sprouts, lettuce, tomato, and vegan mayo. It came with potato chips. Wow, this was so good! Clean tasting, hearty, and delicious. I was so impressed with it that we grabbed a prepackaged wrap from the cold case to take on the plane with us. We also picked up a few other vegan sandwiches which were okay tasting but overall too dense and heavy. Next time, I'll stick with the housemade items. I do find it a little annoying that BB doesn't seem to carry as many vegan items as they do things that are "paleo" and gluten-free. I also find that some of their food items are so outrageously overpriced that you'd be better off hunting around at the local grocery stores instead of purchasing them here. The next time I'm in town, I'll be there to order another yummy item from the cafe. Thanks Basil Bandwagon for catering to us "healthy" folks looking for something tasty and satisfying to fill our bellies.

Sipping on my Ginger Tumeric as I write this review!!! As I big lover of kombucha, I've always…read morewanted to try one of these "on tap" places but never managed to make the drive to one. Finally one is just around the corner! I stopped by on a weekday and was greeted at the door by a member of their team. After I told him it was my first visit, he explained the prices on the two sizes as well as the flavors they had available for the day. I got a couple of tastes and ended up leaving with a 12oz of the ginger tumeric and a growler of the red zinger. All for around $26-$27. I usually go through one of the Health Ade bottles a day so I love that these are organic and locally nano-brewed. They don't have the tartness that most kombuchas I am used to have, so that is either a plus or minus for you depending on your individual preference. Oh! One more thing, if you live nearby and plan to go here quite a bit, go for the growler. You bring it back with each visit and refills are $15 compared to the $20 you'll spend on your first time. So of course this is a *Covid times review and I felt that they took some great steps to keep customers and their staff safe. They have a little table set up outside where you drop off growlers and pick up refilled ones. Hand sanitizer was on the table and a menu was on the window so the whole interaction was nearly contactless. Andddd now my ginger turmeric is officially done...

I cannot recommend Simply Green Cafe enough! From the service to the food, this is now my favorite…read morebreakfast spot and one of my top restaurants. Everything on the menu is vegan, but my family truly could not taste any difference when we visited. We ordered the Oreo protein pancakes, blueberry pancakes, penne with vodka sauce, and a breakfast burrito. Since I turned vegan, I've been craving pancakes so the food really hit the spot. The pancakes were so fluffy and tasted incredible. The penne was also so flavorful and was maybe our favorite dish. The breakfast burrito was also filling and tasted great. Overall, I'm very impressed with the quality of food and would come here regularly if I lived in the area. Additionally, the prices were super reasonable and are definitely more affordable than the average restaurant in the area. Chelsea was our waitress and I want to give her a special shoutout because she was particularly helpful and friendly to us. She did an excellent job answering our questions and even was willing to share general tips on vegan cooking. She really went out of her way to help me out after I mentioned that I recently turned vegan.

There are many two person tabkes, which can be put together and four person open booths.

Whenever I'm visiting family in central NJ, Grounded for Life is a must visit for me…read more As a vegan, it's a real challenge to find decent - let alone GOOD - food in this area. The exception is Grounded for Life, which offers delicious breakfast and lunch options that are thoughtfully prepared, delicious, and satisfying. Their extensive, all vegan menu offers breakfast options such as bagel sandwiches, burritos, toasts, and more, and even their coffee is surprisingly good! I have also enjoyed their wraps, bowls, and sandwiches. And they even have burgers and hot dogs, too. GfL is my new spot for takeout (order ahead online to save time!) before heading to the airport. The chunky chicken wrap saved me when my flight back to the West coast (already a long journey) was delayed by several hours and I was starving. The cafe also has a number of yummy desserts displayed in the case that are great to-go. GfL also offers a "Meal Prep" option where you can order food on a weekly or monthly basis. Service is friendly and efficient, but they are sometimes understaffed. Try to be patient and nice, and your tasty food will be out soon enough. The cafe itself is pretty small with just a few tables indoors. The outdoor patio is more expansive, and I recommend enjoying your food and drinks outside if the weather is decent.
