🔥 Can’t Miss Dish

What: Ricotta Toast

Where: Flour 📍 500 Jefferson St.

Why: We have a soft spot for cheese. An even softer spot for really soft and creamy cheese. The richness of the whipped ricotta with the crunch of the toasted bread makes this the perfect starter to get your holiday weekend going!

😋 Local Hidden Gem: Carpe Diem

👏 What Being lokel Means: Being lokel means knowing and caring about your community and neighbors and also making an effort to give back when possible and be generous in working with the schools, businesses, etc in Hoboken. I’ll never forget how well we were taken care of during the pandemic by our neighbors.

Did You Know? The first steam-powered ferryboat began running between Hoboken and Manhattan’s Vesey Street in 1811
