BURKE TO OPEN 3RD JERSEY SHORE RESTAURANT
 Internationally awarded, celebrity Chef David Burke is set to open his third restaurant in Monmouth County, bringing the total to seven in the Garden State and 18 worldwide.
THE GOAT by David Burke, located at the former Piero’s, which closed in Fall 2021, is an American bistro with a local vibe serving superior food in a fun, casual atmosphere. The opening is scheduled for early April and THE GOAT is accepting reservations for Easter Sunday and Mother’s Day.
The restaurant’s bar and dining spaces - with 110 seats, and a separate private event space that accommodates up to 100 guests - have undergone extensive cosmetic renovations. THE GOAT by David Burke was designed by Burke, and yes, there will be goat-themed décor and original artwork! There is a partially open kitchen featuring an eye-catching wood-burning oven that will be used for several dishes including gourmet pizzas, roast chicken, vegetables and whatever sparks Chef Burke’s imagination.
The menu takes its cue from modern Continental and American cuisines with Chef Burke’s award-winning innovative interpretations. There is an eclectic array of tantalizing appetizers. Mains include Chef Burke's famous burger using dry-aged prime beef, chicken, lamb, pizzas, several house-made pastas, a variety of refreshing salads, lobster roll, seafood dishes and steaks and much more. Desserts are never an after-thought for Chef Burke and THE GOAT's dessert menu will not disappoint.
Some of these local producers include Barnegat Oyster Collection, Two River Mushrooms and Three Forks Green. The restaurant will also serve an extensive list of locally distilled spirits and craft beers. Burke, who owns the restaurant with an anonymous investor, will offer takeout and delivery, and later outdoor dining in the months ahead. For the upstairs private dining area, beyond social and business affairs, Burke has plans to hold fun, themed events reflective of old-timey food halls.
THE GOAT by David Burke is located approximately one-half mile from where Burke grew up in Hazlet and is a neighbor with the S&P 500 International Flavors & Fragrance, headquarters, employing thousands.
“I’m hoping to build a relationship with IFF, an amazing flavor and fragrance house, not only for their catered and dining needs, but also with their research food flavor labs,” said Burke, a recognized inventor and U.S. Patent holder.
About the name, Burke said he wanted a simple, strong name and “goat” tied into Red Horse in Rumson by using another animal theme. And it fits with Burke’s intent to make THE GOAT by David Burke a “go-at-it” one-stop, fun restaurant, an easy choice for a local spot where guests quickly become regulars visiting several times a week.
In Monmouth County, Burke owns Red Horse by David Burke in Rumson, and manages DRIFTHOUSE by David Burke in Sea Bright for The Stavola Family, who have owned Driftwood Cabana Club where the restaurant is located since 1957. Burke also has Orchard Park by David Burke at the Grande Chateau Hotel, East Brunswick; 1776 by David Burke featuring Topgolf Swing Suite, Morristown; and is culinary director for Son Cubano, West New York and VENTANAS, Fort Lee.

THE WINE CORNER
2018 Lyrarakis Kotsifali. Available at the Bottle Shop, Spring Lake. $19.99
Lyrarakis Kotsifali is made from an ancient grape variety grown since around 3000 BC. A native grape of Crete, Kotsifali is a dry red, with medium-full body, and a terrific red for grilled meats, Greek lamb dishes, pasta, pizza, cheeses, and all kinds of Mediterranean foods. We tasted and loved the Lyrarakis family's Kotsifali here, with its excellent purity and balance of fruit, acidity and tannin. Traditionally, the Kotsifali grape has a black color, and comes from vigorous, high yielding vines that have a medium burst period and a medium ripening time. The grapes usually ripen between the end of August and early September in Crete. The resulting wines are high in alcohol and have a low acidity. However, Lyrarakis has produced a red wine with a nice balanced level of alcohol and a nice burst of acidity in a juicy, smooth style. READ MORE about this wine.

SHOULD YOU MARINATE A NEW YORK STRIP STEAK?
From Prime 13, Point Pleasant
New York Strip steak may not be as tender as the tenderloins or ribeye but it offers a fantastic, bold beef flavor with its ideal blend of fat and lean meat. One of the reasons why people choose to marinate steaks is to make tougher cuts tastier and soften dry lean meats. It is one of the effective ways to add moisture into a cut of beef and make it tender. There are different opinions as to whether New York Strip steak should be marinated, given that it has its flavor without all the masking. This article discusses the varied opinions and the most preferred is most preferred when preparing a New York Strip steak. READ MORE about marinating a steak.
