PARSIPPANY, NJ — A long-standing building in Parsippany has been torn down as part of a new construction project approved by the Parsippany-Troy Hills Planning Board last year.

The building, which is located at 285 US-46 in Parsippany, was the home of the since-closed Inn Crowd, a local pub that was once beloved by the community.

The property is currently being converted into a new Taco Bell location.

TriCore Construction, a family-operated firm with over 42 years of experience, is in charge of the construction of the project.

Last summer, the Parsippany-Troy Hills Planning Board unanimously approved the application to replace the former Inn Crowd with a Taco Bell, calling it a "very good application." The applicant was granted permission to build a 2,500-square-foot structure with 50 indoor seats, 36 parking spaces and a drive-thru lane.

James Thaon, the project's engineer, said that the goal of the development is to enhance the site and provide the community with a new "tasteful" design. As part of that goal, the application also included the addition of various shade trees in order to block out any potential light from the drive-thru and parking lot.

One of the board's main concerns was the fact that another Taco Bell is located approximately three miles west at 1560 Route 46 West. Several board members questioned whether the addition of another location so close would have a negative impact on the amount of business at the current location.

According to project planner John McDonough, because the other Taco Bell location is on the opposite side of the highway, it is not likely to affect potential business traffic.

"The brand is over on the other side of town, on the other side of the highway, so we think it makes good planning sense to provide this popular name brand on this side of town as well. I think there is a good balance here," McDonough said.

Following the full testimony, board member Nick Napolitano expressed reservations about the proximity, stating that he hoped both locations could remain open but was not confident.

The application was unanimously approved, with construction expected to begin later this year.

Her prototype could reduce a household's annual water consumption by 30 percent by reusing household water. Deodhar's future STEM plans include attending university and majoring in biophysics with a minor in music.

Rajgopal created a website that uses computer programming, machine learning, and AI technology to aid in the identification of pneumonia in patient chest x-rays. Rajgopal's future STEM plans include attending Virginia Tech and majoring in engineering with a minor in computer science. Rajgopal also intends to expand her website to assist in the identification of additional illnesses, such as tuberculosis.

Shrivastana used computer programming to create a chatbot. Her chatbot was created to assist people by allowing them to communicate about their mental health using technology.

The chatbot can provide mental health resources to the user using AI. Shrivastana's future STEM plans include attending a university and majoring in Computer Science, as well as continuing to develop this project and her passion for mental health and wellness.

"From research to prototyping to taking courses to learn more about their particular STEM areas of interest, our Parsippany students have worked hard and put in extensive time and energy over multiple years to accomplish their goals," the Parsippany-Troy Hills School District said.

PARSIPPANY, NJ — If you haven’t already, don’t waste time making reservations if you plan to celebrate Mom with brunch at her favorite Parsippany restaurant on Mother’s Day, which falls on Sunday, May 14, this year.

Local Parsippany restaurants could use the business as they continue to face economic headwinds that began with the COVID-19 pandemic.

Some restaurants may be closed so their employees can support their own mothers or be pampered by their children, but here are some options:

Several chain restaurants and other eateries are open for Mother’s Day this year, and some are offering specials.

PARSIPPANY, NJ — A new family-run Italian restaurant has opened up in the Township of Parsippany-Troy Hills.

Managed by Josephina and Sergio Spinosa, along with their son Leo, Lo Sfizio Italian Street Food Restaurant will offer an authentic and comforting approach to Italian food at 77 New Road in Parsippany.

The eatery pays homage to Josephina's family, who immigrated to Pennsylvania and opened a chain of Italian restaurants and pizzerias outside of Philadelphia. "I guess you could say that working in the restaurant business is in my DNA," Josephina said.

Lo Sfizio Italian Street Food Restaurant opened on Wednesday, April 12, with an official ribbon cutting presided over by Mayor Barberio.

"I’m sure you’ll do well here in Parsippany. We have so much diversity here in Parsippany, and you're bringing an Italian street food style menu adds to our eclectic selection," Barberio said.

Josephina stated that cooking has always been a big part of her family and that it was her grandmother who passed on a love of cooking to her.

"I can still remember the smell of freshly baked bread in the kitchen coming back from school. I used to love to be in the kitchen with her and help her prepare meals. I was inspired by the way she used to turn simple ingredients into amazing dishes," Josephina said. "I was only nine years old when I decided to write down her recipes in a little red notebook, which today has become the staple of many of the Neapolitan specialties I enjoy preparing."

Lo Sfizio will honor the authentic cuisine found in Southern Italian street food, according to Josephina, who immigrated to the United States from Naples, Italy, when she was eight years old.

One of their popular menu staples is Pizzetta Montenara.

"Pizzetta Montenara is a delicious Neapolitan street food that consists of fried pizza dough topped with tomato sauce, mozzarella cheese, and basil. It’s a popular dish in Naples, Italy, and has gained popularity worldwide. It was one of the first dishes to be put on the menu and it is my mother’s recipe," Josephina said.

The Spinosa family said opening Lo Sfizio in Parsippany felt like the right next step for them. "Parsippany is a thriving community with a strong economy, a mix of cultures, and plenty of attractions for residents and tourists. Being surrounded by a vibrant food scene and a supportive community gave me the confidence to turn my passion into a business."

Lo Sifizo and its staff said they are dedicated to providing a welcoming environment, a friendly face and delicious food.

One of the most important things for her, Josephina said, is "keeping in mind my nonna’s words: 'i veri ingredienti nella cucina sono amore epassione!' or 'the real ingredients in your cooking are love and passion!' Our doors are open, come and become a part of our family."

PARSIPPANY, NJ — For the first time since 2020, New Jersey's school rankings are back, showing how your local schools compare to 2,300 others across the state. The new data offers insight into how Parsippany schools compare on a statewide scale.

Along with the school performance reports, which were released during the first week of April, the data shows school-by-school summative scores and ratings, which compare districts and provide a score that measures how well each school is doing in academic achievement and progress. See all school ratings here.

The scores were established to comply with the federal Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA), which replaced the No Child Left Behind Act.

Find out what's happening in Parsippanywith free, real-time updates from Patch.

The state did not score schools in 2019-20 and 2020-21, because the COVID-19 pandemic disrupted state testing and New Jersey was granted a waiver from accountability-related requirements under ESSA.

In every state, ESSA requires school districts to measure student performance and develop a “State Report Card” which parents can explore online, with quantifiable measurements like a score or a letter grade for how schools are performing.

Find out what's happening in Parsippanywith free, real-time updates from Patch.

ESSA also requires states to report how much money, on average, they spend per student.

Summative scores provide a number from 1-100, and are based on factors such as graduation rates and progress in English and math. Higher scores are better, and certain schools with lower scores are put into categories for support and improvement.

Schools are compared to one another based on grade level, as well, as in the "summative ratings." For example, schools that serve high school students only are compared with one another. These are percentile ratings from 1-100, so a school with a rating closer to 100 is among the best of its peers.
