From pizza places, diners, delis and more, there are so many spots throughout the area that draw in tons of tourists from New Jersey and beyond.

A famous foodie was just spotted at two fan-favorite eateries in the area, and I’m having some serious FOMO. Yesterday, Joey Chestnut was spotted dining at two different Mercer County, New Jersey restaurants.

Joey Chestnut is a professional competitive eater and is known for holding world records. He’s also won the ‘Mustard Yellow Belt’ at the famous Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest 17 times.

Where Was Joey Chestnut Spotted in Mercer County, NJ?

He got to experience some true New Jersey legendary foods yesterday, and I feel like this is a true honor. Both Chiarello’s Deli in Hamilton and De Lorenzo’s Tomato Pies in Robbinsville.

Chiarello’s Deli is a family-owned Italian deli that has been serving up some of the best sandwiches, meals, and, of course, their famous potato and macaroni salads for years.

Joey Chestnut stopped by the deli yesterday and was seen behind the counter trying their famous potato salad and walking out with a huge 6-foot hoagie. They’re one of my favorite places to eat in the world, so it’s obvious that Joey loved it.

Next, he was also spotted at De Lorenzo’s in Robbinsville to try out some amazing tomato pies that you can only find in Jersey. He was spotted holding the famous ‘Mustard Belt’ and took pictures with some of the staff.
