Jiang's Chinese Restaurant in Pomona, NJ

Well, hon, if you ever want to spice up a trip to the Northfield post office, just run into Uncle Gene. Or as he insists, "Fronkensteen." I swear, he’s the only person I know who can make a simple trip feel like a scene from a Mel Brooks movie. Today, he was all fired up about folks thinking they can outsmart Wall Street with orange-juice futures. I mean, sure, why not? If you can dodge seagulls on the boardwalk, maybe you can tackle the stock market. But let’s not kid ourselves. The real juice is in the local scene, and speaking of, let me tell you about Jiang's Chinese Restaurant over in Pomona. It’s like a hidden gem on the White Horse Pike. You know, the kind of place where the food is so good, you half expect to see a line of people out the door. Word on the street is that the Chicken and Broccoli is so hot it could set off a smoke alarm. One fella said he saw steam coming off his plate like it was trying to make an escape. Now that's what I call a hot dish! Another gal mentioned the orange tofu with broccoli. Apparently, it's a must-try. I hear the staff over there are as sweet as the orange chicken, always working hard and with a smile. And let’s not forget those spring rolls. They’re like little crispy hugs for your taste buds. Sure, some folks might have a bad day now and then, but we don't dwell on that. Life's too short to get crabby over crab rangoons, right? Plus, who can resist the charm of a place where people rave about cheesesteak egg rolls? It’s like a culinary love letter to New Jersey. So if you're cruising through Pomona and your stomach starts singing the song of its people, you know where to go. Just remember, tell 'em Sugarpop sent you. They might not know who I am, but it’ll make you sound like a local. And that, my friends, is worth its weight in egg rolls.
