In recent months, world attention has been focused on the shaky economic situation rather than the myriad troubles facing our planet. Which is exactly why we celebrate Earth Day each year on April 22, to remind us to take care of our ultimate natural resource. But where to eat after attending one of the special events planned for the day?
They call New Jersey the Garden State for a reason: a group of South Jersey restaurants has formed South Jersey Green Dining, and one of its first events is coming on Earth Day, a four-course “green” dinner at Mirabella Café (7 PM; $55 per person; 856-354-1888).
And for eco-friendly eats on the Pennsylvania side of the Delaware, they’re living la vida locavore at White Dog Café, Bistro 7, Marigold Kitchen and Horizons.
