Big money has been pouring into new casino restaurants in Atlantic City, as well as Moshulu owner Marty Grims' growing stable of snazzy eateries. But Inquirer restaurant Craig LaBan says his most memorable experiences this summer happened to be at shore places that are the legacies of family traditions. Read Craig's second take on dining at the shore. [Read Part One here.]

The Downashore Team is a group of Philly.com producers. Some of us grew up vacationing at the Jersey Shore, and others came to appreciate it later. Either way, we know our Mack and Manco's from our Prep's Pizza, and we'll do our best to share news, information and musings from up and down the coast. Please do post a comment with your Shore thoughts, or shoot us an e-mail by clicking on the link above. (OK, so we're not really at the beach in this photo, but armed with the power of a good photo editing program, we can dream, right?) We're joined by Inquirer staff writer Amy Rosenberg, who as a year-round Shore resident, knows a thing or two about the scene, and the Shoobies.
