• Congratulations are in order for Jersey City Veggie Burgers who earned enough votes to advance to the finals round in the Start Something NJ challenge - so congratulations and best of luck!
• Great news! Beginning tomorrow, the Incrediballs Truck will be offering Cocoa Bakery's cake truffles on the truck! I love this news for several reasons: a) it's great to see Jersey City businesses working together b) it's also great to see food trucks and brick and mortar stores working together c) I like foods in roundish form

• Another market is coming to Jersey City, debuting December 8th in front of City Hall on Grove Street. Going by the name Project: Market, it will be "Shop Small" themed and feature a number of local businesses ready to serve your holiday shopping needs. There will also be food trucks and local vendors available for your gastronomical enjoyment. This market is part of a larger initiative called The Jersey City Project and I'm sure we'll be seeing a lot more from them in the future.
