Happy Thursday, friends! One of our favorite Shore traditions is back—New Jersey Restaurant Week—and honestly, it might be the best excuse all year to ditch cooking and treat yourself a little (or a lot). From April 10th to April 19th, restaurants all across Monmouth and beyond are serving up special prix-fixe menus, meaning you can finally try that spot you’ve been eyeing without fully committing your entire paycheck. Whether you’re in the mood for a cozy date night, a catch-up dinner with friends, or just an excuse to order dessert 🍨without judgment, this is your week to do it. So go ahead—make the reservation, try something new, and report back… for research purposes, of course.

See you out there!
Adventures led by women, designed to make a difference.
Imagine a vacation that’s not only transformative for you but helps open doors for the local women you meet along the way. That’s what Intrepid’s new Women’s Expeditions in Peru, Cambodia and Bhutan are all about.
Designed specifically for women travellers, these trips offer immersive local experiences that support women-run and owned businesses in each destination. With an expert local leader out front, you could trek the lesser-known Chinchero to Urquillos route in the Peruvian Andes alongside an all-female crew, dive into Cambodia’s street food scene on a women-run tuk tuk tour, or unwind with a traditional herbal hot stone bath at a women-owned farmhouse in Bhutan.
First launched in 2018, Intrepid’s Women’s Expedition range is designed to break down barriers, foster discussion and create meaningful connections for travellers and locals alike.
