It's time to check out one of the best brunch spots in the state, whatever you're looking for, you'll find it and so much more at. And that's where we find New. New Jersey's Tony Caputo photojournalist, Rudy Bo this morning for best of New Jersey making its way to wall township, Tony. We're getting hungry. What have we got here? Forks up, man, because I'll tell you this is looking fantastic right now. I mean, this looks so good that I don't want to touch it. That's again, I, I talk about this food like the paintings. I mean, that is artwork right there. That's, that's Holly in the back, right? Holly in the back, getting that done. That, that is artwork right there and this, I'm gonna eat because that's delicious. Things are so good here. There's stuff falling off the shelves around here at me, mom and wall, let, let, let's Cameron's here. He's the owner. Uh let's run this down here. What, what are we talking about? And why would anybody get that because it looks too good to eat right there. That's probably why I would get that because it looks good to eat. Uh these are some of our specials for the fall. So we change them every quarterly. So there's new stuff right now. Yeah, this came out yesterday actually. So this is the um pumpkin cheesecake waffle. These are to a Wild West Bowl over here. So this is kind of the hardest one that we did. Like we change them consistently. So that's kind of like a breakfast bowl type of thing. So we do the breakfast bowls. Uh, we have uh, five of them on the menu and then this is the special one for the month. So it has chili tater tots, scrambled eggs, uh, onions. Now, this is one of your three locations. Wall, you're in Brick and Middleton, Middletown, um, same menu at each spot or you change the same menu. So both, all three of the same, you stay focused on the, on the three. So, so if I'm here and I get something I like and I bounce over to one of the other ones. I know I can get that too. What's the key ma'am? What's, what's keeping it going? I think it's interesting. You got Susie over here who's kind of coming up with names and ideas and she's doing all their social work right now. So you see a lot on their social pages, I'll be posting there as well. But what's the key? What keeps people coming back because we've been talking to you for years now, ma'am. I know we've been friends for a while. Family owned small mom and pop shop. None of our stores are bigger than 2000 square feet. So I think we try to keep it that way, that way. It's just kind of more personal, the experience and, you know, we're not this big corporation type thing. So I love it. I love it, man. Rudy knows I can't eat and then walk around because I have to digest. You know, I'm a little sensitive like that, but I want to show you the place real quick. Come back here. It's beautiful. The set up is nice. You get space, you know, some restaurants, tables are like right next to each other. You get space, you're comfortable, you got some booths on this side as well. So again, it's me moms. We're gonna talk about that. Me mom, I know a me mom, Mrs Bona and Nutley. She's a me mom. She's the best me mom I ever knew, but that's where the name comes from as well. You are a me mom, right? And that's why it's called me mom. You can't beat it in all the best in New Jersey. We're gonna enjoy some of that pumpkin waffle. Delicious.

Well, it's time to check out one of the best brunch spots in the state, whatever you're looking for, you'll find it. And so much more at me, moms. And that is where we find new 12 New Jersey's Tony Caputo this morning. Right about now, Tony. We could all use a little coffee and some food, of course. And I'll tell you what you drive around this morning. It feels great because it's been so stinking hot out there. It is beautiful. You put the windows down and it just puts you in a little bit of a coffee mood or how about a harvest apple froth, which I've been eating since last, last half hour. Delicious. Samantha Valentino is making the coffee for us this morning. She is the barista here at me. Look at, I mean, again, too pretty to touch is what I'd like to say, Samantha take us through it. What are you making us right now? And what exactly is this in front of me? Right? So right in front of you, you have the Carols coffee that is an iced coffee with French vanilla syrup and brown sugar. Cinnamon ring in caramel and brown sugar milk espresso, topped with whipped cream and cinnamon. And right here I am making a milk and cookies. So I went ahead and I made my espresso and I rimmed this cup with chocolate and Oreo pieces. Right now. I'm doing chocolate in and cookie dough, Oreo pieces. Wow. I mean these are meals you're making here, meal in a cup. It is super good. This is one of my favorite ones here. I wanna make sure I mix everything together. I'm also gonna be doing this one iced, throw a spoon in the car. I'm afraid to even touch this. It looks so good. I don't even know how to go about it. I mean, I see a straw in there so I guess I can use that. Huh? Well, I have choices, a spoon, a straw and this is coffee. This is coffee here at me. Mom's. That's crazy. Let's see if we can get this finished product done before. Too long here. Samantha's dialing it up for us over there as I continue to devour this harvest apple Prole, which you know, I thought the waffle was gonna be more to my liking the pumpkin waffle earlier. But this one, this is a home run and that drink she's making is off the charts. Look at that and Nick, are you kidding me? Lauren? Lauren would love this. Laura would look at that man. Put these together. Holy moly. That's amazing. Like I said, there's straws in there, so, I guess. Mhm. Oh, yeah, that works. Oh, man, that's good. That is Fanta Samantha. Well done. Thank you so very much. The best of New Jersey. Me moms, we're at the wall location, two other locations around Monmouth County. Fantastic. Can't beat it. I recommend everything you see in front of you. If you come down to me, mom's here in wall guys. Best of New Jersey. We'll send it back to you. That is not your typical, boring coffee order in. No way. That is, uh, very like that. That's the way to do it.

Well, it's time to check out one of the best brunch spots in the state, whatever you're looking for. Right? You'll find it. And so much more at news 12 New Jersey's Tony Caputo joins us live. He's got a table full of food in front of him. Tony. So jealous. I wish I could dig in a little bit more, but I'm so stuffed from what I ate earlier. I just can't do it. Cameraman of four days here. He is the owner of me moms. Like I said, listen, I know a Mrs Moro in Nutley, New Jersey. You know, miss, well, her grandkids call her me mom and she's the only me mom that I've ever known. Where does this? Is this named after Mrs Mona? Sure. We'll go with something like that. Hello, Mrs to meet you. Great woman, great woman. Her, her husband's OK, great. He's a good dude too. But you're me mom. Where, where did, where, where did that come from? So she was my grandma and I, I couldn't say grandma as a kid. I was the first grandchild. So I said me mom and then just kind of stuck it. Well, you know, my mom, I thought it was gonna take the name after her and she passed away. But no, my mom was my got you got you. Well, me mom would love the spread you put out here. No doubt about it. Go down the line here for the folks at home and tell them what they're seeing. I mean, these are delicious breakfast, Scott. So we have the Albury French toast over here. This is the Wild West Bowl, which is a special dark night after Batman. You know my favorite. That's your favorite. OK. Loaded. Hash. We got the to That's beautiful. This is the Donkey Kong video game reference. Again, you can get the nerdiness here. You ate this earlier. Actually, this is the harvest apple froth. Again, this is a special banana bread which has been on the menu for years. Now. The Elvis wait right here. That's the Elvis. Thank you very much right there. And that's the, I'm gonna say this wrong quadruple grilled cheese with a side of chili. It's a lunch special. So we threw a lunch one in here as well. But the rest are all breakfast. I love the way that triple grilled cheese looks triple quadruple grilled cheese. That's great. What's what's in the bowl? Chili chili with it. Wow, that's great. If you're more into the lunch special, the Elvis tell me why it's the Elvis. What's in there? The rumor is Elvis liked that sandwich which was peanut butter, banana and bacon. So we actually had it to grilled cheese once it did not work. Hey, Colonel, he turned into that colonel. Give me some, uh, peanut butter and bacon and, uh, bananas in there as well. That some, that's some good stuff. Thank you very much. That's, that's good. I'm gonna have to try that before we go. See if I can start singing like Elvis too. Look, it's me mom's, it's the best in New Jersey. It's in Wall and Middletown and Brick. Three locations. Maybe 1/4 coming your way as well. Good stuff, buddy. Keep it going. Well, done. Great stuff. Great staff. Get to me moms, try it out. I guarantee you, you're gonna love it. The best of New Jersey guys will send it back to you. Thank you very much. And the fourth location be right next to our Edison studios. That's what I want to know. Ok. A plus for creativity. I mean, look at those. Those are impressive.
