We found a rather quirky but unique restaurant with exceptional food in the Northern New Jersey township of Park Ridge at 7 Hawthorne Avenue. Longtime restaurateur Tommy Greco, along with cousin and partner Chef Nicolas Pescatore, returned to their New Jersey roots with a unique concept: a casual restaurant called Pop Empanada during the work week which turns into That Supper Club, formerly known as the Pop! Pasta Club, Thursday to Saturday.
