AEI Learning Center: A Small Business Offering Great Tutoring Deals
I have recently become aware of the Advanced Education Institute (AEI), a small learning center at 186 Boundary Road in Marlboro NJ. They offer students preparatory courses for the SAT and other standardized exams and also work with tutors to provide students with individualized tutoring. Their pricing is excellent and so are their instructors. If your student is looking to prepare for a standardized test like the SAT, you will get great value here. To contact them, call 732-845-4786.
Great art gallery and excellent customer service at Evalyn Dunn Gallery
I recently went to Evalyn Dunn Gallery (549 South Avenue West, Westfield, NJ) to get some custom framing done on a painting. I had never been there before, but as soon as I stepped in the gallery I was made to feel like I was working with professionals. The owners were very attentive and answered all of my questions. The price they gave me for the frame was very reasonable in my opinion, and they even promised to finish my frame earlier to meet the date I needed it by. I was very impressed by the service and the gallery, where they have lots of great art for sale. Check out there website at http://evalyndunnsgallery.com/.
Great pizza at one of my favorite NJ pizzerias
During the Super Bowl, I stopped by the Krispy Pizza at 2323 County Road 516 in Old Bridge, NJ. I was really in the mood for some pizza during the Super Bowl, and as usual, Krispy Pizza delivered. They have an excellent vodka sauce and sicilian pizza, and I also really enjoy their Tuscany pizza. My mom usually has the pepper and eggs sub which they do realy well (she wasn't there that day), and since the owners are really great guys, they even asked me how my parents were doing and told me to say hi to them. You can check out their main website at http://www.krispypizza.com. I have only been to the Old Bridge location but I have never been disappointed. Since I love pizza, they are, without a doubt, one of my favorite NJ businesses.
