You will be able to place a bet on horse racing and order some crab fries all at the same time at the EHT Chickie's and Pete's if a new proposal gets approved.

The New Jersey Racing Commission will, "...consider a proposal later this month to establish an off-track betting facility at the bar and crab house on Route 322 in the English House Plaza strip mall. A public hearing will be held on March 21 at 7 p.m. at the township municipal building on Bargaintown Road."  That's according to NJ.com.

Township Mayor James McCullough says he's all for it.  Again, according to NJ.com,

McCullough said the proposal to establish an off-track betting parlor here has been in the works for four years. He said Chickie's & Pete's will likely expand their facility to accommodate more patrons.
