Everybody has a favorite local business. Maybe yours is the deli where you get lunch everyday, the shop that gave you your first summer job or that little place down the block where you're on a first name basis with the owner.

Whichever local business is your favorite, we at Patch want to know about it. That's why we're relaunching our Readers' Choice program this week. We've already asked our readers about some of their favorite businesses around River Edge and Oradell. We want to know which businesses are absolutely the best around.

With that in mind, we're asking our readers to nominate their favorite businesses for our Readers' Choice polls. We've got a lot of different categories, including:
