This Couple Wants To Eat In Every New Jersey Diner

By Jim Monaghan

Meet the New Jersey couple who has set a goal of eating at every diner the Garden State has to offer. With nearly 500 diners scattered throughout the state, that’s quite the task they’ve set upon!

What started as a simple stop at the Livingston Diner for Jon and Karri has turned into exploring the entire state of New Jersey and the various diners throughout.

Their exploits have taken them everywhere from People magazine, to the Today Show, and now to WDHA and Jersey Magazine!

Let’s Eat In Every New Jersey Diner With the Ricklins

  • Rock N Ruff

    WDHA’s Rock N’ Ruff is back – this is the MOST PERFECT pup! Her name is KATIE GIRL and she is currently being fostered through North Star Pet Rescue https://www.northstarpets.org and she is perfect.

    Check Out Katie’s Video!

    I LOVE Katie Girl So Much!

    About Katie Girl

    Katie Girls foster Chris and his family have done a wonderful job with this loving dog. Thanks to all of the awesome fosters!

    Katie Girl came to Northstar many months ago (at 4 months old) and went into her foster family and the only mystery is how she has not been adopted yet! Katie girl loves everyone she meets. That includes people, (especially the small variety as she is very kid-friendly) and other dogs and she even does fine with cats! She enjoys car rides, long walks, and settling down to get lots of love, pets, and kisses. She’s a very, very good kisser and is being fostered by Chris and his wonderful family who have fantastic things to say about this young dog (she’s under a year old) and how she will fit into just about any family.

    Katie has the sweetest face too, with a few crinkles around her gorgeous eyes and a constantly wagging tail. I (TC) first met her at Northstar’s “Strut Your Mutt” event in May and was sure she would find a home immediately. Then I saw her at our June “Dog Days Of Summer” event and was baffled as to why she still was not adopted I finally said, “Let’s Get This Dog On Rock N’ Ruff”!

    She is simply one of the most lovely dogs I have ever met! Puppy Perfection for sure.
