potato dish called Tuscan Bacon BleuCaramelized Corn Potatoes. Chef Andeswas kind enough to share his preparationsecret. The potatoes were baked, thenmashed and fried with corn, bacon bits, andbleu cheese. The other accompaniment was

haricot verts, which is a French green bean,longer, thinner, and more tender than mostAmerican varieties.

I ordered the Wild Mushroom ChickenBreast, a tender chicken breast with asuperb spinach and mushroom stuffing. Itwas accompanied by chive mashed pota-toes, grilled baby asparagus, and severallarge plump shrimp. A savory light demiglace completed the dish.

Since everything was so delicious, andwe were still hoping to sample somethingfrom the impressive dessert menu, it was

with sincere regret that my friend and Iasked our server to kindly package up theremains of our entrees for later.

The dessert menu was, indeed, impres-sive. All of the Prickly Pears desserts arehomemade on premises, and with standardslike Chocolate Ganache Cake and CarrotCake as well as newer offerings such asBlueberry Short Cake and Key Lime Pie,the choices were extensive. Our serverexplained that many of the items, like thecheesecake and the bread pudding, are pre-pared in various ways so that Tuesdays

preparation may be quite different fromSaturdays creation.

On that evening, my friend chose theCoconut Bay Breeze Sponge Cake, a newoffering of moist cranberry sponge cakewith a delicious pineapple filling and awhite butter cream icing with toastedcoconut. I generously offered to help him bytaking several bites. Personally, I think thisitem should be a standard offering on themenu.

My dessert choice was the GrandMarnier Chocolate Sponge Cake withChocolate Icing and Shaved WhiteChocolate. Perhaps only those over 21should be permitted to enjoy this supremelydecadent dessert. Wow!

The Prickly Pear is open everyday butMonday. They are certainly worth visiting,but they are than just a great place to dine.They offer an extensive catering menu witheverything from hors d'oeuvres, platters,

and entrees to breakfasts and brunches.Theyre located at 80-30 Main Street inHackettstown. For more information, go towww.pricklypearrestaurant.com or callthem at (908) 979-0003. For general ques-tions, you can also email them [email protected] and for cookingclasses, send your questions to [email protected].

After my visit to the Prickly Pear, Iwould like to share one last quote. Seizethe moment, Erma Bombeck once said.Remember all those women on the Titanic

who waved off the dessert cart. Bonappetit!

classes culminating in a four-course dinnerthat includes an appetizer, salad, entre, anddessert. Chef Joe prepares everything. Heshow them how to prepare it and then heserves it, explains Linda. He sets up rightin the dining room. Once he demonstrates

that course, its served.Patrons bring their own wine, and class-

es are quite popular. Linda notes, Wevehad couples come to do it. Weve hadgroups. We limit it to about forty people.

The Prix-Fixe Lunches are also a dis-tinctive part of the menu. Its been verypopular, says Linda. Its three courses, asoup or salad, lunch selection, and a dessertfor $12.95. Lunch selections include menuclassics like Buffalo Chicken Pannini,Garlic Pepper Seared Rare Tuna Wrap, andChicken Caesar Wrap. Dessert choices

include items like Chocolate MascarponeMousse.

On a recent visit, I discovered for myselfwhat dining pleasures are waiting to be dis-covered here. I brought a friend and wewere seated at a white linen-covered table.The dcor was elegant, yet understated, thelighting and soft music enhancing theserene atmosphere.

Although my companion was happywith the ice water in stemmed glasses, Iordered a diet soda, admittedly my weak-ness. Our server brought a basket contain-

ing a small loaf of warm bread along with a

dish of whipped butter.Following the suggestion of our hosts,

we chose the Stuffed Zucchini Ribbons andthe Shrimp Spedini for our appetizers. Thefirst was slices of zucchini rolled around asuperbly moist, creamy stuffing of spinach,

roasted peppers, oyster mushrooms, andParmesan cheese, topped with a tangylemon garlic sauce.

The Shrimp Spedini was a shrimpmousse with fresh mozzarella and spinach,served with two plump shrimp standingguard at the sides. This creation was toppedwith fresh tomatoes, roasted peppers, garlic,capers, and a savory lemon demi glace.

The salads were a delightful surprise.The Prickly Pear Salad was a bibb lettuce,with shaved fennel, Roquefort cheese,toasted walnuts, and Prickly Pear

Vinaigrette, a light dressing that is mildlysweet and slightly fruity, an excellentchoice.

The Arugula Salad contained ripe straw-berries, sweet candied pecans, and a verycreamy, delicious crumbled goat cheese.This was all topped with an absolute must-try champagne vinaigrette.

For our entrees, my friend had orderedthe Grilled Skirt Steak, which our host sug-gested he substitute with a fillet mignon.The meat was extraordinarily tender andjuicy, just as a good fillet should be. Its

accompaniments included a magnificent

Eating, said Italian designer ElsaSchiaparelli, is not merely amaterial pleasure. Eating well

gives a spectacular joy to life and con-tributes immensely to goodwill and happycompanionship. It is of great importance tothe morale."

Ive traveled throughout the world,says Joe Seitz, a Prickly Pear regular. What

he does here is amazing. He reminds me ofa European mom-and-pop restaurant, a fam-ily place. The food here is amazing. Thekitchen, he adds, is spotless. Thats how Ijudge a place.

The creations of Chef Andes have gar-nered awards such as the Peoples ChoiceAward for last years Art of Chocolate ben-efit in Randolph.

I took coconut, the chef explains of hischocolate sushi creation, with green foodcoloring to look like wakami (a seaweedsalad). I laid out chocolate and tempered it

a little bit to make it pliable, and I did asweet sticky rice in there.

Wife Linda notes an additional award

for their salad. It was arugula, strawber-ries, pinola nuts, and Prickly Pear vinai-grette, drizzled with white chocolate.

Dining at the Prickly Pear is always aunique experience. Their menu is updatedtwice annually, with dishes added orremoved according to whats fresh for theseason.

There are some classics, says Linda,that stay on, that have been on since we

opened.An exceptional dining experience at the

Prickly Pear is important to both Chef Joeand his wife. They offer menu items that areboth enticing and inspired. Yet they respectthe individual preferences of their patrons.We have a couple of vegetarian dishes,explains Linda. Hes (Chef Joe) alwayswilling to accommodate anyones dietaryneeds. Hell make anything as long as hehas the ingredients here.

The Prickly Pear is different from othereateries in other ways as well. For a truly

unique evening out, the Prickly Pear offers

tive surgery. Michel will be in recovery forat least a year, needs additional reconstruc-tive surgery, and may have to undergochemotherapy or hormonal therapy basedon test results of her breast tissue.

As a survivor, Michel is pleased with theadvancement in cancer treatments and ishopeful for the future.

My story is common, says Michel.The technology to treat what I have is real-ly advanced. I think from all of the fundrais-ing theres a lot of improvement. My hopeis the money we raise will help the studentsin my class, that there will be a vaccine orsomething.

Michel is all too familiar with the dis-ease, not only by her personal battle butthrough people in her life facing similarexperiences.

Her childhood friend died in Septemberfrom bone cancer. A father of one of herdance students is a three-time survivor andis still fighting. The head ballet teacher atthe center survived breast cancer after shehad a mastectomy and chemotherapy twoyears ago. In addition, she and Volz bothlost their fathers to prostate cancer.

Its close to us; we really wanted tohave more of an impact, explains Michel.The kids really want to do something andmake a difference.

Another one of Michels students,Rachel Thrun, has also been touched by thedisease after her mother- Julie Ashton of

Flanders- was diagnosed with breast cancerin late September. Ashton underwent a dou-ble mastectomy in the fall.

Thrun, a junior at Mt. Olive High schoolwho has been attending Theater DanceCenter since she was three years old, is thestudent leader for the Stand Up To Cancer

fundraiser.Theres been a lot of personal connec-

tions, says Thrun. Being touched person-ally and having dance teachers touched aswell, its good to inspire others and do it bysomething that we love and that is to per-form. While dancing, and doing what theylove most, they will give back as well, shesays.

Thruns hope is finding a cure; to helpscientists and studies be found.

TDC collected close to $500 last year forbreast cancer through its fall clothing drive.

This year, the centers goal is to raise$10,000 through monies raised from theperformance as well as another clothingdrive in the spring.

All proceeds raised from the dance per-formance will go to SUTC, an organizationcreated to accelerate groundbreaking cancerresearch that will get new therapies topatients quickly and save lives.

SUTCs purpose is to enable cutting-edge research to find a cure to all types ofcancer such as breast, prostate, skin andbrain. SU2C's goal is to bring together thebest and the brightest in the cancer commu-

nity, encouraging collaboration instead ofcompetition, according to the organiza-

Dance For A Cure...continued from page 5

tions mission statement. By galvanizingthe entertainment industry, SU2C createsawareness and builds broad public supportfor this effort.

TDC Shooting Stars Dance For a Curewill include a 2.5 hour performance of avariety of dances that incorporate all formsof dance such as ballet, tap, lyrical, contem-porary and jazz. Girls from 7-years old to18 will perform competitive dance routineschoreographed by teachers on TDC staff aswell as outside choreographers, saysMichel.

All the dances are competitive, shesays. All high level dancers that train indance at least 10 hours a week will be per-forming.

For advanced tickets, call 973-252-0931.Tickets will also be sold at the studio and atthe door for a $5 donation. There are 600seats available. For those unable to attendthe performance, donations can be made tostanduptocancer.com, under the team nameTDC Shooting Stars.

Personally affected by cancer either asvictims or through loved ones, mem-bers of Theater Dance Center of

Flanders will host a fundraiser this month to

help find a cure.Theater Dance Center invites the publicto its performance - TDC Shooting StarsDance For a Cure-on Sunday, Jan. 30, at 5p. m. at the Mt. Olive Middle School.Tickets are $5, and all proceeds will go toStand Up To Cancer (SUTC), a program ofthe Entertainment Industry Foundation.

Any amount of money raised for thiscause will make a difference in the lives ofothers who may someday be diagnosed withcancer or have a relative fighting against thedisease.

We have a bunch of young girls at ourstudio that dance and who could face breastcancer someday, says Millene Michel, co-owner and artistic director of Theater DanceCenter. Michel co-owns the studio withMary Ellen Volz, who also serves as busi-ness director of the center. Hopefully anymoney raised from this school will make adifference.

Facing the disease is all too familiar formembers of TDC. Michel, 48, of Flanders,recently had a double mastectomy afterbeing diagnosed with breast cancer inOctober. Detection of a lump in her milk

duct went unnoticed during her annualmammography in April. It was during her

annual physical in September when her pri-mary doctor conducted a breast exam andfound a lump deep in her breast.

When Michel returned for a second

mammography and ultrasound in October,the radiologist questioned Michels diagno-sis by her physician, especially when noth-ing showed up. There was a change in thebreast tissue, however, so Michel went for abiopsy which came back positive for StageII Ductal Carcinoma in situ (or DCIS), themost common type of noninvasive breastcancer in women. With DCIS, the cancercells are found in the breasts milk ducts.

Since Michels cancer had spread intobreast tissue of one of her breasts, she optedfor a double mastectomy which she under-went on Dec. 14 at Overlook Hospital in

Summit, followed by immediate reconstruc-
