Longtime personal chef Jennifer Asfar, above, opened the Healthy Palate, a new takeout restaurant, on Prospect Avenue in Little Silver Tuesday.

Featuring bottled soups, salads and both vegan and “paleo” foods, the restaurant specializes in “clean, unprocessed, anti-inflammatory, nutrient-dense” dishes as well as cleanse programs, says Asfar, a Middletown resident.
