"Bring cash. Come early (8 a.m.) or late. Prepare for crowds. Visit Lily Vanilli."

"Go to Il Forno. Great croissants. Fresh, light, crispy, creamy. But don't stay too long: There aren't flight announcements."

"Best, softest croissants in Jersey City, now that Beechwood changed theirs."

"Do not get this calicasa thing. It's like a terrible Long Island iced tea."

"Surprisingly good."

"You might walk right past this place. But don't. And order the pulpo."
