#ohheyyy we finally checked out Gordon Ramsay’s Hell’s Kitchen at Caesars Atlantic City, and I can officially report... the hype is real. The night started with the Notes From Gordon cocktail 🍸 and our note read: 💬 “The beef is so undercooked that it is starting to eat the salad.” Which had us laughing because a few minutes later the famous Beef Wellington arrived and trust me... there was absolutely nothing undercooked about it. 😍🥩 Between the Tuna Tartare, Crispy Brussels Sprouts, Elote Corn, Crispy Honey Potatoes, Grilled Asparagus, and desserts that we somehow found room for anyway 🤣🍰, everything was delicious. Big shoutout to Chefs Ryan and Tyler and the entire team for a fantastic first experience. Now I need to know... are you ordering the Beef Wellington or going straight for the Sticky Toffee Pudding? 👇 📍 @hellskitchen @caesars #AtlanticCity @gordonramsayrestaurants @thecitypulse #foodie #jerseyshore #thecitypulse

#ohheyyy last night I had the opportunity to take part in a Women’s Self-Defense Seminar with the Galloway Township Police Department and Tap House Jiu-Jitsu and it was such an empowering experience 💪 Not only was it informative and hands-on, but everyone made the environment feel so welcoming and supportive for women of all experience levels. I also learned that Tap House is the ONLY Certified Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Training Center in New Jersey, offering real-world self-defense programs designed to help build confidence, awareness, and practical skills. Huge thank you to John, Erin, Captain Esposito, and everyone involved for putting together such an important event for the community! 📍 @taphouse_jiujitsu inside @atilisgymgalloway 323 S.

#ohheyyy “You’re not alone.” Such a simple phrase, but after speaking with Taylor Grieger, you realize just how life-changing those words can truly be. Taylor is a former Navy rescue swimmer and the subject of the documentary Hell or High Seas, now streaming on Amazon Prime. During our interview, he opened up about the mental toll so many veterans face after returning home, the loneliness that often comes with PTSD, and how his journey sailing the treacherous waters of Cape Horn with writer Stephen O’Shea helped raise awareness about veteran suicide. We also talked about how Taylor turned his own struggles into purpose by founding Skeleton Crew Adventures, an adventure therapy nonprofit that uses offshore sailing to help veterans and first responders recovering from post-traumatic stress. He also founded Cape Horn Tequila, a tequila brand built to help keep Skeleton Crew Adventures’ life-changing programs free for participants. As someone whose grandfather was a WWII Navy veteran who suffered deeply with PTSD, this conversation hit especially close to home for me personally. Hearing Taylor speak so honestly about trauma, healing, survival, and hope was incredibly powerful. 🎥 You can watch Hell or High Seas now on Amazon Prime, and if you’d like to experience it in person, Live! Casino & Hotel Philadelphia will host a FREE public screening and live Q&A with Taylor on May 21 at 6PM as part of Military Appreciation Month. ⚓ Learn more about Skeleton Crew Adventures at SkeletonCrewAdventures.org #ohheyyy #VeteranSupport #MentalHealthAwareness

#ohheyyy Pilates at The Fitness Connection has quickly become one of my favorite workouts! It’s such a good full-body workout without feeling overwhelming, and I love how strong, stretched, and refreshed I feel after every class. This one definitely had us WORKING 😂🔥 but honestly that’s part of what makes it so rewarding. Summer is around the corner and we are feeling GOOD 💪☀️ FitnessConnectionPilates.com The Fitness Connection #pilates #thefitnessconnection #jerseyshore #TheCityPulse @thecitypulse @fitnessconnection_pilates

#ohheyyy went to @pizzahut today on a whim. Will I go back? No. It’s just not made the same like it used to be - IMHO. But it gets an A for nostalgia ha. Glad I did it! #pizzahut #pizza #jerseyshore #eggharbortownship

Winston the Fluffy Frenchie gives the best hugs!! Awwww he missed his mama - how sweet it is to be loved by you ❤️. Couldn’t wait to get home to my baby xoxox 🐾❤️ Meet Fluffy Winston #meetfluffywinston #fluffyfrenchie #fluffywinston #fluffyfrenchbulldog

Ok ok! When you KNOW you shouldn’t… but then those little eyes start negotiating 🌭👀😂 Yes, we know hot dogs are salty. Yes, we said “absolutely not.” Yes… the internet would’ve bullied us if Winston didn’t get at least ONE tiny bite 😭🐾 Safe to say he thought it was worth the wait. Fiiiiiine. #meetfluffywinston #frenchbulldog #fluffyfrenchie #fluffywineton #dogsofinstagram

#ohheyyy yesterday after an amazing stretch at Stretch Zone Northfield I had 30 minutes before Pilates at The Fitness Connection , so I figured a stop at Route 9 Creamery made a lot of sense! Ha! Im glad I did because these 3 flavors were just freshly made and they were awesome!!!!!💯❤️🍦 Ferrero Rocher Belgium Chocolate Peanut Butter Reese’s #gelato #icecream #jerseyshore The City Pulse

#ohheyyy Pilates at The Fitness Connection in Linwood is ahhhmazing!!! Summer is around the corner and we are working out our whole body while laying down 🤣. I mean c’mon haha so awesome!!! FitnessConnectionPilates.com #pilates #thefitnessconnection #jerseyshore @thecitypulse

#ohheyyy not sure if we were more thrilled with our surprise visit from Sam or a large pizza from Lorenzo’s on South St. in Philly 🤣💯🍕 Biggest pizza ever! #pizza #lorenzos #philadelphia #thecitypulse @thecitypulse

#ohheyyy Winston had such a great grooming experience with Amy from Grooming by Amy at Nurture Pet in Smithville, NJ 🐾 Not only did Winston get pampered, but we also love browsing the store because they have so many great options for pets, from food and treats to other fun finds for your furry family members. Amy was reliable, professional, experienced, and took such great care of Winston. From his cut to his nail trim and everything in between, he was done in about 90 minutes, which was amazing. One thing Amy mentioned beforehand that really stood out, was there aren’t a bunch of other dogs around, so it’s less stressful for the pup and so much easier for the pet parent, too. And honestly, that was exactly our experience. Winston looked adorable, the process was smooth, and at $50 { with the cut }, it was super affordable compared to other grooming options we’ve tried. Thank you, Amy, for doing such a wonderful job! We highly recommend her. She grooms in both Lacey and Smithville. 📲 Amy: (609) 289-0200 Tell her Whitney & Winston sent you 🐶 #meetfluffywinston #fluffyfrenchie #fluffyfrenchbulldog #grooming

#ohheyyy if you love unique dessert spots, beautiful presentation, and trying a little bit of everything… Viva La Dough needs to be on your list 😍🍓🍋 I first discovered them in Brooklyn, so I was excited to see them open their new Lakewood location — and it absolutely lived up to the hype. Robyn, Asya and I went all in 😂 trying everything from the matcha and lattes to the croissant pizzas, their viral fruit-shaped desserts, and even a first taste of the upcoming dinner menu before it officially launches in the next couple of weeks. This Paris-inspired kosher patisserie and Cholov Yisroel dairy bakery is honestly such a cool concept, and you can tell there’s so much creativity and attention to detail behind every item. Huge thank you to David, Chef Reem, Evelin and Ricardo for the warm welcome and for letting us be the very first ones to experience the new dinner menu. Based on what we tasted… people are going to be obsessed. Safe to say we’ll definitely be back… and next time, we’re bringing the hubby’s too 😂 📍1700 Madison Ave. Lakewood, NJ #vivaladough #kosher #lakewood #newjersey

#ohheyyy… I first discovered Viva La Dough in Brooklyn, so when they opened in Lakewood, NJ you know we had to go! 😍🍓🍋 We basically decided to do a full dessert taste test assembly line with six of their signature desserts. And since we are a fun crew, everyone handed me different fruit-shaped creations to try one after another. Each one really tasted like the fruit it was designed to look like. They’re almost too realistic to eat, and the flavors inside matched the presentation perfectly too. The lemon one was bold and extra citrusy 🍋 and a little too tart for my personal palate, but if you love strong lemon flavor, you would absolutely enjoy it. The others leaned sweeter and creamier, so it was fun trying all the different flavors and textures. If you’ve been curious about these viral fruit desserts, consider this your sign to go see — and taste — them for yourself 📍Viva La Dough 1700 Madison Ave. Lakewood, NJ #vivaladough #lakewood #kosher #media The City Pulse

#ohheyyy last night was a sweet one 🍦 I had a blast checking out the new flavors from FatBoy Ice Cream at their media activation at Bella Union NYC with my girl Linda — and it was so much more than just ice cream (although… that alone would’ve been enough 😏). From painting rocks and sending postcards to enjoying a curated menu from the restaurant, every detail was just fun. But the highlight? Hands down creating our own ice cream sandwiches at the DIY sandwich bar… iconic. It was also so nice meeting the team behind @fatboyicecream and connecting with everyone who came out. Thank you for the invite @giggobgulp —such a fun night! 📍 @bellaunionnyc @thecitypulse

#ohheyyy have you been to Stretch Zone in Northfield? We are getting older, and it’s time to listen to your body. You all know I’m not really an exercise person, but I started doing Pilates with Janet at The Fitness Connection , and it’s been sooooo amazing. It helped so much that it’s now part of my regular routine. And then I go for my assisted stretch at @stretchzonenorthfield 🙌🏻💯 If you book at Stretch Zone Northfield, your first stretch is FREE when you mention promo code WHITNEY. When you’re there, they’ll walk you through any perks or specials available in-studio with my code. I’m genuinely grateful to have this as part of my wellness routine, and I love being able to share something that’s actually made a difference for me. 📍 1205 Tilton Rd, Ste 16, Northfield, NJ 08225 📞 (609) 867-9182 🔗 stretchzone.com/locations/northfield-nj #stretchzone #selfcare #movement @thecitypulse

#ohheyyy last night was a whole vibe at Capriccio inside Resorts Casino Hotel Atlantic City. From the moment we walked in, it felt so classy with the old-world Italian vibe and ocean views. Plus, one of those menus where everything sounds so good it’s hard to decide. It’s no surprise this spot has been recognized as one of the top casino restaurants in the country! Pro tip: Don’t skip the freshly grated cheese on just about everything—it really makes the experience… and the chocolate soufflé is a must, just order it at least 30 minutes ahead. Such a great night—thank you to the staff for making it so memorable. #resortsac #capriccio #dinner #atlanticcity @thecitypulse @resortscasino

#ohheyyy 🐾 Winston is still enjoying his smoked beef marrow bone from Mika & Sammy’s Gourmet Pet Treats… and that says everything! It’s been the perfect way to keep him happily busy and I love that it’s low-temp hickory smoked, keeping the bone strong and not over-processed— just a high-quality treat I can feel good about giving him. And clearly… Winston is obsessed 🦴🐶 We can’t wait to try more from their lineup because if this is any indication, we already know he’s going to be a fan.
