Last Friday, NJ My Way got subscribers looking for Father’s Day gifts a 10 percent discount at the Metro Golf and Fitness Center in Tenafly, where they have simulators with cool 3-D graphics to put Dad in his favorite golf course, virtually.
Today we bring our readers more exclusives for Dad.
 If he is a sports nut or history buff, he’ll like the write stuff at Historic Pen Editions. Rocco LoConte, owner of a Hollywood and sports collectibles shop in Cedar Grove, last week launched a new line of artisanal pens made from hand-turned wood that once made history. One series has pens made from a fallen Tulip Poplar Thomas Jefferson planted in Monticello. Another is made from bats game-used by Mickey Mantle. Others are from seats in Griffith Stadium, Wrigley Field and other classic ballparks. To get your 10 percent NJ My Way discount, send a note from their website mentioning us or bring this column to his store, Main Street Gallery, 348 Pompton Ave., Cedar Grove (Rt. 23). You also get 10 percent off on everything in the shop.
 Or, just for the weekend, give Dad the keys to a Lamborghini Gallardo or Rolls Royce Phantom. Green Daddy? Then how about the 60 mpg Mercedes SmartCar ForTwo. They’re all at Exotic Car Rentals in Yardville. Owner Larry Shulan has agreed to a 10 percent discount for our readers, on top of the Father’s Day special that lets you pick up a car Thursday evening and return it Sunday for the price of two days.
Then there’s food. Do Dads love anything more than a nice juicy steak? Maybe the wife and kids, that’s all. Click here or on the ad (if you don’t see it, refresh the page) to enter a raffle for dinner for two at Morton’s Steakhouse in the Riverside Square Mall, Hackensack. We will run the ad until the drawing is held at noon next Friday. Winner will be notified that afternoon.
 Nearby, Paramus-based Chakra, serving new American cuisine with Asian influences, will give you a 10 percent discount for your dinner bill on Father’s Day if you bring a printout of this column. And if you mention us or bring this column to genial hosts Dominic and Connie Cascio at Il Michelangelo in Boonton Township, they will offer complimentary homemade dessert for your table, on Sunday.
At Lucky Bones Grill in Cape May, chef Wally Jurusz is offering our readers this Sunday a complimentary set of his four dry rubs, great for barbecue-lovin’ Dads. Let Daddy become Papi and slather Wally’s Cuban Spice Rub on pork chops, ribs or chicken before he grills (ingredients are secret, but one Cuban we know says a traditional adobo begins with garlic and cumin). Our readers also get the Mexicanized Cuban Rub with chipotle and two new blends, Moroccan and Tuscan.
Hope you found something your Dad will like. Happy Father’s Day to all the great Dads in our lives! |
