**Super food fans have a new health food option. Hoboken’s Acai Ya Later has taken over production of the açai bowls at Downtown Yogurt. Açai bowls are nutrient-dense bowls created with either açai berries or dragon fruit (pitaya) as the base and then topped with various fruits, grains, and drizzles (peanut butter, nutella, agave, honey, etc). —Acai Ya Later

**NJ Monthly has named Cellar 335 one of the state’s top 25 restaurants. Per the magazine, “Cellar 335 is much more than a hipster boite. Cocktails like the smoky/tangy Fightin’ Five, served in a skull mug, taste even better than they look. And virtually every dish on the menu is both a hoot and a delight, from hot mini cheddar corn muffins topped with a melting pat of togarashi-spiced butter to tamarind-sauced Duroc pork ribs topped with toasted coconut.” Also on the list are Maritime Parc, Cucharamama (Hoboken), and Ryan DePersio’s Fascino (Montclair). —NJ Monthly
