Of course, Bar Anticipation located at 703 16th avenue in Lake Como New Jersey is a world renowned nightclub. It has a spacious bi level, multi room indoor area with a huge stage. Furthermore, it's sprawling backyard, with tiki bars, sand, waterfalls, and more, truly makes it the place "Where Summer Never Ends". However, many people overlook Bar A for one of its finest attributes: The Daily Blue Plate Special!

What is a "Blue Plate Special"?

According to Wikipedia, a blue-plate special is a discount-priced meal that usually changes daily: a term used in the United States and Canada by restaurants, especially diners and cafes. The term was very common from the 1920s through the 1950s. As of 2007, there are still a few restaurants and diners that offer blue-plate specials under that name, sometimes on blue plates, but it is a vanishing tradition. However, the phrase is still a common American colloquialism.

We brought in a Blue Plate Special Expert.

Meanwhile, Bar Anticipations menu shows all the delicious Blue Plate Specials they offer each and every day https://bar-a.com/dining/daily-specials/ However, it takes a real expert to rank them. Someone who spends more time there that at his actual job. We know that guy. You know that guy. It's Mr. Bar A. Mr. Miller Lite. Mr. Blue Plate Special. It's America's Sweetheart. It's Gotts.

Gotts doesn't know much. But he knows Bar Anticipation. Furthermore, he LOVES their Blue Plate Special Lunches. Even though I've had them a few times over the years, and quite like them myself, I know I need to defer to an expert in this department. Not a week goes by that old Gottsie doesn't have at least one lunch at Bar A. That's not counting liquid lunch of course.

So, without further adieu, here is the Gotts Man's official ranking, in order of his favorites, of Bar Anticipation's Blue Plate Special lunches, complete with starch and veg, Monday through Friday 11-4, for $7.95.

PORK CHOP THURSDAYS

Gott's top pick. He says it's tender, juicy, and center cut. The delicious sauce makes him rank it number one!

MEATLOAF TUESDAYS

Gotts thought nobody made meatloaf like his mom. That's until he tried Bar A's Tuesday Blue Plate Special! Sometimes he forgets where he is and yells "MOM MORE MEATLOAF!".

GUINNESS BEEF STEW MONDAYS

Gotts is usually pretty banged up on Mondays, so he likes to ease into the week with a little hair of the dog. The Guinness Beef Stew is tender, flavorful and hearty. Just like Gotts' liver on a Monday.

CHICKEN POT PIE WEDNESDAYS

By the time lunchtime on Wednesday rolls around, Gotts has already spend the morning being pretty well beat up by Carl and Dave on the Morning Rat Race, so he's in need of some comfort food. Thank God that's the day the Bar A Blue Plate is filled with homemade Chicken Pot Pie!

FISH N CHIPS FRIDAYS

Gotts hates fish. Sorry Fridays. But look on the bright side - You're still his favorite day of the week!

Believe it or not, Jimmy’s first job was overnights at a Christian Radio Station. He claims he got into radio because like Rocky Balboa once said, “cause I can’t sing or dance.” Jimmy loves to write about all local happenings, especially around his town of Toms River. Favorite Pastime (other than masturbation, of course): Cheering for the Yankees, and crying for the J-E-T-S!!! Favorite Food: Hot Sauce…I collect ’em! Favorite Drink: PRUNO…look it up, if you dare! Favorite Movies: The Exorcist, Planet of The Apes (the original), To Kill a Mockingbird, Annie Hall, and of course GF 1 & GF 2…I heard that’s how the real fans refer to them. Favorite Movie Line: easy…Murry-Caddyshack-“big hitter, the Lama”…f#$*in’ riot! Best Rat Rock Bands: STP, VH, ZEP, PEARL JAM, FOOS, PEPPERS,AC/DC Favorite New Bands: Glorious Sons, Rival Sons, Dirty Honey Most Embarrassing Moment: the moment my mother reads this shit! Best Day: I know a lot of folks say this, but it’s true: the day my little girl Jynell and my boy Big D were born! Next to that, it would have to be the day I was baked on earth day in Central Park and met Keefer Sutherland…baked too, I believe.
