This NJ Restaurant Makes The Best Grilled Cheese In The State

Since we're stuck in the deep winter freeze at the Jersey Shore, this is the best time of year to look for a good grilled cheese sandwich. And let's be honest, odds are if you want a grilled cheese, you'll just make one at home. However, there's a grilled cheese restaurant in NJ that's so good it's getting national attention.

How To Make The Best Grilled Cheese Sandwich At Home

What makes a good grilled cheese sandwich is the ingredients. For example, when my wife and I make grilled cheeses at home, we use cooper shark cheese, and the bread is a sourdough that we get from a woman who makes it fresh in Ocean Gate. On the side, we do a little tomato soup with some chickpeas in it for added protein. It's delicious.

What Makes This NJ Grilled Cheese Restaurant Stand Out

NJ's best grilled cheese restaurant also believes in using fresh ingredients and high-quality cheeses. Granted, the fact that they're located in Kenilworth shouldn't deter you from making a trip. Because while you're getting the best grilled cheese in the state, you could also grab one of the best hot dogs in Jersey as well.
