Rough day? Sounds like a good time to indulge in some comfort food!

What do you think of when you think of comfort food? A bowl of oven-baked mac and cheese, pot roast, spaghetti and meatballs, a grilled cheese sandwich, fast food, fried chicken? It depends on who you are, but the answers are limitless. Heck with the calories - as long as it makes you feel good!

Here's how Cheapism gave this hot spot its praises:

"When your comfort-food dreams include heaping piles of pastrami and matzo ball soup, family-run Hobby's in downtown Newark is a top choice in a state where competition among delis is stiff. But the wide-ranging menu means you can also grab a burger or hot dog, poutine, mac and cheese, and even eggplant parmesan."

They've also been recognized by Food & Wine magazine and Far&Wide.com!

If you're here for comfort food, you can't go wrong with their classic pastrami sandwich (packed with meat), corned beef sandwich, chicken cutlet sandwich, chicken noodle soup, Philly cheesesteak, burgers, and reuben sandwiches! Check out their full menu HERE.

Let's take a trip on the New Jersey Anthony Bourdain Trail!

 "If I'm an advocate for anything, it's to move. As far as you can, as much as you can. Across the ocean, or simply across the river. Walk in someone else's shoes or at least eat their food. It's a plus for everybody." - Anthony Bourdain
