A new addition to Cranford's downtown, Avenue East is a trendy Asian fusion restaurant. It takes pride in offering delicious food that is heart healthy. It even lists on its menu some of the ways it has achieved this, including a lack of MSG, using 100 percent cholesterol-free canola oil with zero trans fat and using 100 percent white meat chicken. Avenue East is a large restaurant with leather seats, shiny wood tables and subtle lights coming down from the ceiling.
