New Jersey supermarkets, restaurants preparing for busy Super Bowl weekend 01:56

PARAMUS, N.J. — Have you done your Super Bowl food shopping yet? Those hosting or attending parties to watch the Big Game this weekend are ahead of the game.

From the cart, or restaurant, straight to our homes, there’s much to gather days ahead of the Big Game.

“Things to pick on, finger foods,” Moonachie resident Jen Turbay said.

That’s just some of what Turbay and her husband packed their cart with Friday before the Super Bowl Sunday rush.

For those catering…

“It’s gonna be a nonstop type of weekend, but we’re ready for it,” Biggie’s general manager Steven Ranuro said.

Ranuro has a wall full of catering orders with wings, nachos, sliders and other handhelds on deck, and even with expected crowds at the restaurant, they’ll be on-call for more orders, even during the game.

“Even at halftime, we’ll get a set of orders come in,” he said.

“I think this is gonna be our biggest year for a Super Bowl yet,” said Nevin Philip, vice president of operations at the Stew Leonard’s in Paramus.
