Editor ’ sNote
In this issue , we bring you our fourth-annual Readers ’ Choice Awards . We interviewed longtime residents as well new business owners and included our readers ’ favorite places to eat , drink , shop , exercise , walk their dogs , grab free Wi-Fi and read abook .
Our town is changing . Many stores are thriving . Others are shuttering their doors . Some new businesses have long lines and wait lists : If you ’ ve ever tried to get into aweekend class at Poe Punch or stopped for lunch at Squirrel & The Bee on aSaturday , you ’ ve seen the crowds . Venerable businesses , like the Millburn Deli , Basilico and Charlie Brown ’ s , continue to thrive . And some longstanding stores , like Babyland , have gone out of business altogether and will be missed , especially by those of us who shopped there as kids and loved to watch the salespeople spin ribbon around the wrapped gifts into colorful curls .
As in every issue , we also bring you storiesabout people in and around Millburn who make life here interesting . We profiled Broadway and TV star , NorbertLeo Butz , now starring in Netflix ’ s Bloodline . Wesat down with Investor Bancorp chief exec Kevin Cummings and found out what he likes to read and how he stays fit , and chatted with Lynda Wachsteter , who uses her blend of Southern charm and wit to raise money for the Jewish Service for the Developmentally Disabled . We interviewed the owners and head chef of Restaurant Serenade , now celebrating 20 years in Chatham , and take alook at thethe chic town houserenovated by almost-empty-nestersHaya Taitel and Steve Becker . Wealso have agreat service piece about how to finally ( and successfully !) clean your house for spring .
We ’ re still wearing boots as this issue goes to print , but spring is coming , and the daffodils and forsythiawill be blooming before you know it . If you have news to share for our May issue , please email us at Millburn @ Northjersey . com . ■
