I grew up eating great Italian food, but there is simply no beating the vibrant flavors of Mexican food. As with Italian food, Mexican food requires very fresh ingredients to pull off authenticity and with this "farm to table" method, Stokes Farm has nailed it. Today they introduced their collaboration with The Taco-ish. With this they are bringing some needed life back into Old Tappan. We ordered the chicken thigh tacos, a side of guacamole, and the cassava chips. They generously threw in a side of the tomato salsa, a side of the cauliflower and mushroom salsa, and some tortilla chips. The food was simple, delicious and fresh.

Read moreIt is always great to have a farm in your neighborhood. Stokes Farm has all you need on veggies , herbs and fruits. When you find them... The lady owning this farm, though,as I understood last year on my own experience ,is very dismissive. And rude.I’ll give it one more try, just to see a good change. I made my purchase last year, requested more fresh produce, have been assured that it is ok. And , as I was there to pick it up, I was told they don’t have it, due to bigger business... So, small doesn’t matter! And I’m talking about over $120 in cabbage only. Woori Mart had it all. Cleaned...
