The pickle wielding critic.
Did anyone else know 95.5 WPLJ’s morning show featured a weekly restaurant review segment? We just happened to catch Coop’s Sandwich Shop en route to a cooking competition this morning and heard his high praise for the White Manna in Hackensack, giving it the coveted “Four Pickles.” The Jersey City location on Tonnelle Avenue, which just celebrated its 70th anniversary, also received a shout-out.
If you’ve ever been to either, you may have been surprised to hear his description, saying White Manna serves ten-napkin burgers steamed on a magical hibachi and which left his plate looking like a murder scene. Maybe there was a mushroom or two slipped among the onions.
This is the first time Coop’s visited anything remotely close to our area so if you’d like to recommend a Jersey City eatery for him to visit you can contact the show here.
