Tomorrow marks the official launch of the South Jersey Green Restaurant Group (SJGRP), a new coalition of over-the-bridge restaurants focusing on enviro-friendly business practices. Inaugural members Andreotti's Viennese Caf� (Cherry Hill), Tortilla Press (Collingswood), Dante's Bar (Barrington), Blueplate (Mullica Hill) and Blackbird (Collingswood) aim to greenify restaurant operations from the bottom up � they're doing everything from implementing aggressive recycling programs and relying on sustainable seafood/local produce to switching over to energy-efficient kitchen equipment.

The group will kick off its initiatives with an event at� SJGRP founder Joe Palombo's Mirabella Caf� (Barclay Farms Shopping Center, 210 E. Route 70, Cherry Hill) tomorrow, April 21, from 4 to 7. Guests can sample organic dishes, check out a sustainable seafood cooking demo from Palombo and more.
