Cafe Artiste, located in Spring Lake N.J., serves traditional Italian cuisine with a twist: There’s no menu. You’ll enjoy whatever Cosimo — the artistic chef and inspiration for the eatery’s name — is cooking the day of your visit. His delicious concoctions are cooked with fresh ingredients, and the prices are very reasonable. Cafe Artiste probably isn’t a place for picky little eaters, but your teenager might enjoy it.
