At Judy's in Asbury Park, Jewish and Italian culinary traditions collide, serving dishes like matzo ball soup and tiramisu with exceptional flair.
"Top Chef season 16 contestant David Viana and Neilly Robinson have recently revamped their St. Laurent hotel restaurant in Asbury Park, New Jersey, to pay homage to Italian American cooking through a Jewish lens, per Robinson’s parents. Judy’s features matzo ball soup, latkes, calamari, and hamachi, chicken Savoy, an array of pastas, and tiramisu for dessert. The wine list threads the European diaspora for Ashkenazi Jews. The bar is named for Robinson’s father, Harry." - Nadia Chaudhury
