Atlantic City Casinos

I like to eat. I like to eat in Atlantic City's many casino restaurants, and I sincerely think Atlantic City's restaurant's rank among the best restaurants everywhere - and, nationally, they don't get the recognition they deserve. Additionally, I don't think the restaurants get enough local respect.

Since an emergency management team was appointed in late January to dig Atlantic City out of a financial mess, the manager and his right-hand man have been silent on their plans for the gambling resort town. An initial report is due by early next week, and according to the city's mayor, there's plenty of work going on behind the scenes.

Twenty-six weeks of unemployment benefits are set to run out this month for most of the workers laid off by the recent string of casino closures in Atlantic City.

We've all heard the numbers: Several casinos closed, others teetering on the edge. Thousands out of work. You may think there is nothing you can do - but there is!

After much positive speculation today, it appears that an announcement saving the Trump Taj Mahal from closing Saturday will not happen
