TreBar is très bon! This new coffee/wine bar, affiliated with Tre Piani Restaurant at 120 Rockingham Row in Princeton Forrestal Village, has become a hot spot for drinks before dinner, after dinner, as well as for small plate lunch and supper.

“It’s everything and anything. There can be any combination,” says chef/owner Jim Weaver, who also owns Tre Piani Restaurant.


HAIR CARE: “The client’s needs are important. Why this color? Why this cut? We find styles that are appropriate to the client’s need.” The owners of Salon Vis à Vis, from left, David Ordini, and Debra and Carl Edinger, are proud of their quality hair care and personal service.

“Does she or doesn’t she?” That was the traditional question once upon a time. It’s hardly relevant today because the answer in so many cases is “Yes, she does!” (“He” could now be added, too.)
