\nFor those of you visiting AC next month, here are some tips from a New Jersey "local".<\/p>\n
\tMUST<\/strong> DO<\/u>::<\/p>\n \tCasino – Visit REVEL<\/u> it is really an amazing place.It is huge with an amazing casino. every game you can imagine and some of the best dealers around. They also have 9\/6<\/em> Video Poker.<\/p>\n \tPeople watch – take a daytime stroll on the boardwalk (weather permitting) you will see some very interesting characters<\/p>\n \tBLACKJACK<\/u><\/p>\n \tBorgata has some of the best rules and penetrations. Just look at the table rules, as they vary. \tSHOPPING<\/u><\/p>\n \tThere are loads of "outlet" stores in town. The shopping area is located near the center of town on the boardwalk side is very safe.<\/p>\n \n\tNIGHTLIFE<\/u>:<\/p>\n \tFor the younger set there is so much, Mur Mur at Borgata, The Pool at Harrahs and just about any place at Revel on a Saturday Night.<\/p>\n \tFor those a little older there is Boogie Nights at at Tropicana. This is the disco music of the 70’s and 80’s<\/p>\n \tIvan Kane’s Royal Jelly is located inside the Revel. A burlesque dancer is performing on an elevated stage outside to entice players sitting in the casino<\/p>\n \tCheck with your hotel or the "AC Weekly" website to see if your favorite entertainer is in town. atlanticcityweekly.com<\/p>\n \tComedy Club – Borgata has a good Comedy Club and if you have played there in the past getting comp tickets is pretty easy. <\/p>\n \tPOOLS<\/u> (Indoor)<\/p>\n \tBest is a probably Harrahs, a close second is a tie between Borgata and Revel<\/p>\n \tLODGING "VALUE<\/u>"<\/p>\n \tAC is expensive on a weekend, no doubt, but the Atlantic Club (Former Hilton) has some decent deals. You may also want to check out the website for ACHOTELEXPERTS.COM<\/p>\n \n\tPARKING<\/u><\/p>\n \tWhen you park in AC you can use the receipt to park for free in another hotel (the <\/p>\n \t************************ DINING<\/u><\/span> **************<\/p>\n \n\tCHEESE STEAK<\/u><\/p>\n \tTony Baloney’s Pizza (300 Oriental, near Revel) Do yourself a favor, take a break from the WhiteHouse and try this. The Cheeses Steak Ole’ is the winner of the Food Network – Guy Fieri (Dinners Drive throughs and Dives) BEST Cheese steak. It is a Cheese steak that is spiced up a bit. Trust me on this one<\/p>\n \tPIZZA<\/u><\/p>\n \tAgain it is Tony Baloney’s. Mike the owner has come up with some amazing concoctions. \tHERO<\/u><\/p>\n \tEarl of Sandwich \n\tFOOD COURT<\/u><\/p>\n \tBorgata. It is located on the lowest level, below the poker room. Standard food court vendors, it is very clean. What sets it apart is it has a FAT BURGER Franchise. Good burger!<\/p>\n \tSTEAKHOUSE<\/u><\/p>\n \tI like many, Old Homestead in Borgata, The Palm in Tropicana, also Mortons and Ruth’s Criss<\/p>\n \tNON CASINO RESTAURANTS<\/u>: \n\tWords of warning<\/strong><\/u>;<\/p>\n \tBe smart! AC (like many places including Las Vegas) has a criminal element that lurks on the shadows waiting for it’s prey. If you are smart you have nothing to fear. Do not walk the boardwalk late at night. Do not try to save a few dollars by walking the miles long trip from the boardwalk casinos to the marina district. Do not engage with panhandlers. When you go up to your room if you feel someone is following you go back to the elevator and have security paged. Do not flash a wad of bills and then walk alone to the parking lot. Stay away from any young lady at the bar that seems as thought she is so interested in every word you have to say \ud83d\ude44 \n\tAny questions I am happy to try to answer them<\/p>\n Posted by:<\/strong> Dr Crapology on February 10, 2013, 12:24 pm<\/p>\n \tHope to see you in AC<\/p>\n \tAlligator Rose and Doc<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n Posted by:<\/strong> Scan on February 10, 2013, 1:00 pm<\/p>\n \tYou need a visit to NYC<\/p>\n \n\tGet a hero at Mamma’s a\/k\/a Leo’s Latticini \tThen after the hero you can go for an Italian ice (please do not call it a "water ice" \ud83d\ude44 \ud83d\ude00 ). At the Ice King of Corona \tThis is the ice place you see Doug and Carrie at in the opening of each episode of "King of Queens"<\/p>\n \tFollow that with a NY Mets game at nearby CitiField<\/p>\n \tThat, is a good day.<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n Posted by:<\/strong> Timmer on February 10, 2013, 6:53 pm<\/p>\n \tMuch appreciated!!<\/p>\n \t \ud83d\ude0e \ud83d\ude0e \ud83d\ude0e<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n Posted by:<\/strong> ThomasH on February 11, 2013, 11:50 pm<\/p>\n \n\tTony Baloney’s Pizza – drive or take a cab. We started to walk there from Reval and this summer and decided not a good idea.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n Posted by:<\/strong> brothelman on February 12, 2013, 3:49 am<\/p>\n \tThank you<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n Posted by:<\/strong> billythekid on February 13, 2013, 6:18 am<\/p>\n \tThanks for the heads up on Tony Baloney’s. I love the white house because it’s like the cheese steaks that I grew up on in Pa but I’m certainly willing to try Tony’s on your recommendation.<\/p>\n \tBTK<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n Posted by:<\/strong> Scan on February 15, 2013, 11:58 am<\/p>\n \n\tGETTING AROUND<\/strong><\/p>\n \tJitney<\/p>\n \tAC has a great Jitney service. There are four separate routes. (See website below). It is cheap only $2.25 per person and if you are a senior it is only .75 cents!!! The senior fare requires ticket prepay. \tTaxi cabs<\/p>\n \tTaxi are a good way to get around if you are in a hurry remember the max a cab can charge in AC is $13<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n Posted by:<\/strong> Guest on February 16, 2013, 2:54 am<\/p>\n Posted by:<\/strong> Scan on February 16, 2013, 4:26 pm<\/p>\n \tTwo great points.

They will screw you with a room.
\n\tThey also always have one $5 table<\/p>\n
\n\tMy favorite is the "Shit Faced" It is beer battered chicken with cheddar cheese and Honey BBQ rather than tomato sauce. Amazing
\n\tAnother Scan fav is the "Yenta" this is a Ruben Sandwich on a pizza. I want a slice now!
\n\tTip – they deliver to your hotel if you want a snack.
\n\tMenu is at TONYBALONEYS.COM<\/p>\n
\n\tI am a sandwich snob so i prefer to get my Heroes from a really good italian deli but many people rave about Earl of Sandwich. This Chain, which people also vist in Vegas, is now in the Showboat. I tried it. it was ok. I thought the sandwich was very small<\/u> for the price. If you like it in Vegas you will like it here.
\n\tThe White House
\n\tNow with two locations. Missippi Ave and at Trump Taj. Please do not attack me here but \ud83d\ude06 …. but. Sorry to say in my opinion overrated and over hyped. However many people, ( just look at yhe long line) including lots and lots of my GTC friends \ud83d\ude00 absolutely love this place. I think it is just ok, at best.
\n\tI much prefer some thing like,a crispy loaf of NY Italian bread with prosciutto di Palma, capicola, fresh homemade creamy mozzarella, a few sun dried tomatoes and a layer fire roasted peppers, with just the slightest hint of balsamic. That, my friends is a hero….. But you ain’t getting it in AC…. Sorry \ud83d\ude25
\n\t Tip- i know you guys are still going to go \ud83d\ude00 so keep in mind .. When you order let the guy making the sandwich see you are going to tip. You will get a very filled hero.<\/p>\n
\n\tChef Vola, Docks Oyster House, Cafe 2825
\n\tTomatoes (this is in Margate not too far from AC)<\/p>\n
\n\tThere is no need to fear for your safety if you just use common sense.<\/p>\n

\n\tI have tried Angelo’s twice and have had great meals ther both times. I think that the last time that I was there it was with the beautiful Goddess and her support team Sandtrap so we had good company too! Great tip for the AC newcomers.

\n\tVic and Anthony’s at the GN is a great restaurant. Steaks are top notch. Service is amazing. And they usually have a wine special where one 100+ bottle is on sale for the night. Usually a great choice at a decent price.

\n\tIf you are not Diamond or 7 Stars they will put you in the old Claridge Hotel tower.
\n\tYou do not want to be there. No amount of screaming at the deal clerk will change it.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
