Gloucester County, New Jersey — The humble Whitman Diner has recently been transformed into The Whitman, a martini lounge for those up-and-comers who would otherwise cross the bridge for their chilled cups.
If the "Pearmiscuous" or "Sexploitation" cocktails doesn't tempt, why not advertise your uniquely flush state with The Whitman's $100 martini? Owner George Poulianas assures the suspicious that though the blend of ingredients is top-secret, customers splurging on the C-Note martini will surely get their money's worth.
The colossal cocktail serves four, which partially explains the gimmick, and is sided with a plate of chocolate-covered strawberries. The real value test comes in the form of a diner pairing: Just how well does this drink complement a tuna melt or turkey club?
The Whitman, 4990 Rt. 42, Turnersville, N.J., 08012, 484-228-4449, thewhitmandiner.com
What a great idea... Very different. this definetly caught my attention. can't wait to visit the Whitman.
Will get my girls together for this martini!!!! We love the martinis we have tried so far so can't wait to try the C-Note.
If the entire state of New Jersey were the set up for a joke, this would make the perfect punchline. Was the name douchebagtini taken?
This place is so cool. i can't believe we finally have something like this around us. it beats taylors and pjs because thats all we had. Taylors same people that used to be at thae alpine.... Gross.... and pjs, feel like i'm at a college party. Washington Twp. needed this and we appreciate the whitman for doing it.
