The only compliment as thrilling to a restaurant as a happy customer is the recognition of its own community — and the OLIO restaurant at the Renaissance Woodbridge Hotel learned first hand! The Iselin restaurant’s Orecchiette Pasta with Rock Shrimp in Lobster Sauce won the “Best Pasta” award at the 2012 Rahway Taste of Spring, held April 13, 2012.
The annual Rahway, New Jersey food and wine event brought together over 80 local fine gourmet eateries, caterers, and food vendors from across three counties. The event included a “Battle of the Bakeries,” and winners in a number of food categories, which included “Best Pasta,” “Best Dessert,” and more. Attendees and judges were also treated to over two-dozen fine wine/boutique beer/aperitif tasting stations, for an unforgettable gourmet food experience. With representation from a number of fine local restaurants, Iselin‘s OLIO was up against stiff competition.
OLIO’s management and staff were proud to bring home “Best Pasta” honors, and the delectable Orecchiette Pasta with Rock Shrimp in Lobster Sauce is just one of the casual restaurant’s wide selection of appetizers, salads, entrees and desserts. Located on property at the Renaissance Woodbridge Hotel, OLIO Restaurant/Lounge/Patio combines chic, colorful accents, inlaid mesquite log floors and hand-blown glass chandeliers with some of the best food in the area, and convenience for guests of the hotel.
