***** Hunan Wok, 407 East Sheridan Street, Dania Beach, Florida 33004, (954) 929-2220.

Got a real-good “mom & pop” eat in/takeout Chinese joint for you…Hunan Wok in Dania Beach.

Using the worn- but extremely accurate “Jeff Eats’ Brooklyn Jewish Chinese circa 1950s Taste Test”-I gotta tell you that I found Hunan Wok’s wonton soup, egg rolls, fried dumplings, boneless pork spareribs, roast pork fried rice, sweet & sour pork, pepper steak, shrimp in lobster sauce all right on the money. Before the “snickering” gets too loud, Jeff Eats shared this recent eat in dinner “feast” with Mrs. Jeff Eats and our friends Nancy and Norman–just wanted you guys to know that I’m not some over-eating slob gorging himself on food-I share!

Now you know and I know that what I like, you may hate and vice versa…with that caveat-I gotta tell you everything was really good.

Look, over the past 8 years Jeff Eats has eaten in a ton of South Florida Chinese restaurants- it would be absolutely absurd to try and assign Hunan Wok a Chinese restaurant ranking number.

Let’s close this one out with this…

If Hunan Wok was by-my-house…I would definitely be a steady eat in/take out customer.

You can check menu/prices at hunanwokdania.com.

The joint is open Monday-Saturday 11am-11pm, Sunday 11am-10pm (I’m thinking- that the early closing is because they don’t want to miss “Homeland” but I’m just guessing on that).

CHICAGO – After making appearances around the world, McDonald’s Chicken Big Mac is officially coming to U.S. restaurant menus.

The fast food giant announced on Thursday that the sandwich, which is a twist on the original Big Mac with two chicken patties, will become available starting on Oct. 10.

McDonald’s said the sandwich will be offered for a limited time “at participating locations while supplies last.”

“With the introduction of the Chicken Big Mac, we’re excited to pay homage to one of our most iconic menu items, the Big Mac, and introduce it to a whole new generation of fans,” Tariq Hassan, the McDonald’s USA chief marketing and customer experience officer, said in a statement.

McDonald’s Chicken Big Mac

The Chicken Big Mac is exactly as it sounds. Rather than two beef patties, the newly-offered sandwich comes with two breaded chicken patties, special sauce, lettuce, cheese, and pickles on a sesame seed bun.

The Chicken Big Mac has been on menus in international markets like the U.K and Australia. It was previously tested in Miami in 2022, and food blogger @Snackolator sparked excitement among fans when they posted in late August that the sandwich was indeed coming to the U.S.

***** Michaels of Brooklyn Marinara Sauce

Now, you guys and Jeff Eats both know that this whole food blog “reviewing” situation is purely one big subjective call- you know, what I like, you may hate and vice versa!

With that in mind, yesterday while shopping at The Fresh Market located at 5540 North Military Trail, Boca Raton, Florida 33496, (561) 994-2221) I came across Michaels of Brooklyn Marinara Sauce (16oz- $7.89) and I gotta tell you guys- that this sauce is absolutely- off-the-chart delicious!

Like I said a few seconds ago, what I like you may hate and vice versa. All I know, is that in my day- I’ve literally consumed a hundred gallons of marinara sauce and I gotta rate this one right up there with the best that I’ve ever eaten!

By the way, the sauce went perfectly with the Petite Cruise Mozzarella Sticks which Mrs. Jeff Eats had picked up at Costco Wholesale, 17800 Congress Avenue, Boca Raton, Florida 33487, (561) 981-5004 last week!
