Kathleen & Paul's, Stockton Rd., Union, NJ

It may not be open all night like some of the places in Manhattan. It may be too undiscovered for a Zagat rating. No one who works in the kitchen there has ever made an appearance on the Food Network. But when the chefs of Stockton Road prepare a meal, you do not want to miss it.

Kathleen, Paul and their mothers treated their extended families to a St. Patrick's Day party last night, starring corned beef and cabbage, carrots and potatoes, turnips and parsnips, soda bread, key lime pie, and rice pudding. It was all wonderful and plentiful. We enjoyed the warm family-style atmosphere, the festive shamrock decor, and efficient all-you-can eat self-serve buffet, and you really couldn't beat the price.

I can't believe this place isn't in the NFT Guide.
