Rutt's Hut (Clifton, NJ)

This place has been featured on numerous programs on The Travel Channel, The Food Network and is also features in the book 1,000 Places to See Before You Die. Now you’re probably saying to yourself why is this my topic of discussion today. Well that’s because two years ago that’s where I was, having deep fried hot dogs with my groomsmen, my dad, my brother in law and my father in law hours before I got married later in the day. Some guys play golf and some guys just hang around watching tv but in my wife’s family this has been a tradition, so I followed suit. Now ideally eating anything deep fried at 11:00 in the morning before you have to stand in front of a room church full of family and friends is probably not a good idea, but despite what you might think I couldn’t have imagined my day starting any other way.


As for the rest of the day, it was the best damn wedding party of the year! If you don’t believe me, just check out the highlights video. We were surrounded by family and friends who were partying on the dance floor with us the entire night (well we did sit and eat for a couple of minutes). But the best thing about that day, wasn’t the hot dogs, it wasn’t singing at the top of our lungs to “Living on a Prayer”, it wasn’t even that my best man ran around the dance floor singing “Sweet Caroline” to his filet mignon. It was that I got married my best friend.  Happy 2nd Anniversary V!
