oh, and for those who don't know, the hot grill is a new jersey landmark. it is a restaurant, if you couldn't guess, and it is the best burger/dog/fries joint i've ever been to in my increasingly longer life. it is a model of efficiency: you tell the guys what you want, they bark it out in a language that isn't quite english and, voila, moments later, you've got your food without error. (never in my years of going there, no matter how many customers, no matter how many guys shouting out orders, have they ever made a mistake.) one of those handful of institutions that further fuels my burgeoning jersey pride.
