My wife and I recently moved to this area from Seattle and we came across a great little restaurant in Princeton, of all places. Someone said this group was for listing restaurants in the Delaware Valley region - does Princeton fit that category? Anyway, we prefer little hole-in-the-wall type restaurants with hearty home-cooked food, so if you like the same you might want to try out this place: Downtown Deluxe Restaurant 48 Leigh Avenue Princeton, NJ (609) 921-3052 Driving down Leigh Avenue you wouldn't think there are any restaurants on the street but there are actually two restaurants in an otherwise residential area. The Downtown Deluxe is very small, only about 5 or 6 tables. Here's the dinner menu: Dinner Platters (includes two vegetable side dishes and corn bread) Catfish (baked or southern fried)............. 9.25 Whiting (baked or southern fried)............. 8.50 Chicken (baked or southern fried)............. 7.50 Spare Ribs.................................... 8.75 Buffalo or Regular Chicken Wings.............. 6.75 Vegetable Side Dishes Cole Slaw..................................... 1.85 Potato Salad.................................. 2.25 Macaroni Salad................................ 1.85 Candied Yams.................................. 2.25 Macaroni and Cheese........................... 2.25 Collard Greens................................ 2.25 Okra and Tomato............................... 2.25 Black Eyed Peas and Rice...................... 2.25 Combination of Three Vegetables............... 6.75 Combination of Four Vegetables................ 7.95 They also have sandwiches and other side orders. The above is taken from their dinner menu, there's also a lunch menu. The desserts include Apple Crisp, Sweet Potato Pie, and Brownies. We've been there at least 4 times already for dinner. We always have too much food and end up taking some home to have for lunch the next day (2 meals for the price of 1!). So far, we haven't been disapointed. We particularly like the cornbread. -- Dan Benson Siemens Corporate Research, Inc. (609) 734-3668 755 College Road East dbenson@siemens.siemens.com Princeton, NJ 08540
