Ridgewood NJ, Chef and co-owner Christine Nunn has shuttered her Ridgewood restaurant after nearly two years to focus on catering full-time.
The writer of the “The Preppy Cookbook” told the Bergen Record she wanted to focus on catering and more writing. The original Picnic closed in Fair Lawn also after 2/1/2 years of operation.
Nunn said she will run her catering operation out of the kitchen of Picnic on the Square located at 26 Wilsey Square until her lease expires.
While the business is winding down we are not sure of the fate of the cooking classes held at Picnic.
Making a long-term success of any restaurant on that side of town is a tall order. Although restaurants come and go on both sides, that side seems to have a higher turnover.
Damn… if only that garage was built, she would have been saved…
