Since our NJLA conference is held at the Revel Casino in Atlantic City, you have so many choices for meals all in the same place!

Start off with a simple cafeteria-style breakfast to gear up for a day of programming with breakfast sandwiches at Luke’s Kitchen & Marketplace, and enjoy a quick lunch or dinner at the Districto Cantina Taco Truck right inside the casino where they have $3 tacos Monday through Thursday. Relish is a 24-hour diner with a pedigree, where you can snag an inexpensive breakfast, lunch, dinner, or late night snack!

On the second level of Revel, find Select Dining like SkyCafe for a breakfast buffet, Alcove for your choice of a quick or leisurely breakfast or lunch, or a dinner of Italian Comfort Classics at Lugo Italian. Sit down, relax, and enjoy catching up with old (or new) friends and colleagues.

Or go all out with a Signature Dining experience with restaurants like Azure (did somebody say New Sushi Mondays?!) and Amada with $5 tapas Sunday through Friday. What a great opportunity to take advantage of the Atlantic City location and take your significant other on a fancy mini-vacation!

Check out our Dining Guide for more information about these food opportunities, plus a variety of other choices that take you down the boardwalk or near Atlantic City outlet shopping. Conference is hard work and we all work up an appetite, so take a few moments to treat yourself!

Two Revel eateries will also be hosting NJLA events sponsored by the Member Services Committee, so be sure to swing by to check them out!

• At a happy hour Librarian Mixer at the Mussel Bar at Revel on Monday, June 2, 5:00-6:00 p.m., enjoy a celebrated mollusk in its most delicious forms before heading over to the President’s Program! Choose among 150 different beers from Belgium and beyond, and soak up the rich tavern atmosphere while networking and enjoying your New Jersey library colleagues.
• On Tuesday, June 3, 5:00-6:00 p.m., all are welcome to join colleagues at the New Librarian & Library School Student Meetup at Village Whiskey before heading over to the annual NJLA Awards Reception. This event is for everyone -- but especially for welcoming our new librarians and library school students. Village Whiskey boasts a choice of more than six dozen whiskeys, dozens of beers and wines, and food from burgers to crabcakes. This is the place to be to meet new friends and make new connections.

See you at the Conference!
