***** Grand Lake Chinese Cuisine, 7750 Okeechobee Boulevard, West Palm Beach, Florida 33411 (561) 681-1388.

I got a Chinese Restaurant that is absolutely terrific. That’s right TERRIFIC.

You have to try…Grand Lake Chinese Cuisine located in West Palm Beach. It’s not fancy, but it’s not as “dumpy” as most of the joints down here in South Florida. So much for decor.

Grand Lake has a very extensive menu…it’s got all of my “1950’s Brooklyn” favorites as well as dishes that I am too scared to try. Throw in something like 50 different dim sum…and you got an “extensive” menu.

Just so you know, there were six of us…wonton soup, roast duck noodle soup, egg rolls, pan fried pork dumplings, bbq spare ribs, roast pork fried rice, sweet and sour pork, general tso’s chicken, honey garlic chicken, shrimp with garlic sauce, t-bone steak, moo shu pork and peking pork chop. Everything was delicious.

Put Grand Lake on your “must try” list. The joint is open 7 days a week 11am-11pm and and its dishes are “neighborhood” prices.

***** Hong Kong City BBQ, 5301 North State Road 7, Tamarac, Florida 33319, (954) 777-3832.

Got a real-good Chinese joint for you…Hong Kong City BBQ in Tamarac.

The beautiful thing about Hong Kong City BBQ is that nobody in your car is gonna bitch about going there. The reason Jeff Eats says that, the joint has dim sum, Brooklyn-Jewish-American Chinese food circa 1957 and authentic Chinese food (whatever that is?).

Anyway,

A party of 6-of us recently gave Hong Kong City BBQ a shot and I gotta tell you, the food was right on the money.

Let me give you a fast run down of what was ordered…
House Wonton Soup.
Egg Drop Soup.
Chicken Corn Soup.
Pan Fried Pot Stickers.
BBQ Roasted Honey Roasted Spareribs.
BBQ Roasted 1/2 Duck.
Shrimp Pan Fried Noodles.
Roast Pork Fried Rice.
Peking Pork Chops.
Sweet & Sour Pork.
Steam Whole Tilapia.
Lobster Cantonese.

Now, nothing for nothing–not one person in our party “didn’t find what to eat” and everyone agreed that the food was really good. The prices are “neighborhood” Chinese joint prices, the décor is neighborhood Chinese joint décor. Playing to its name–Hong King City BBQ (with the emphasis on BBQ) the joint has some bbq chickens/ducks/pigs hanging over the front counter–which gives the joint a nice New York City Chinatown Dump feel.

You guys know that Jeff Eats really isn’t into doing “pecking orders”…that said, the House Wonton Soup, BBQ Honey Roasted Spareribs, Peking Pork Chops and Sweet & Sour Pork were at the top of my list. Like I said before, everything was really good, but the stuff I just mentioned–was really-really good.

I’m just guessing here, but I’m thinking that some of you guys may want to know: Does Hong Kong City BBQ have any “Early Bird” deals? Yes “Virginia”-from 3pm-7pm- 7 days a week Hong Kong City BBQ has an Early Bird which gets you–soup/egg roll/white or fried rice/entrée.

Let me wrap this one up,

Jeff Eats really enjoyed Hong Kong City BBQ. Give this joint a shot- I don’t think you’ll be disappointed.

You can check menu/other stuff at http://www.hkcitybbq.com.

Hong Kong City BBQ is open Monday-Friday 11am-11pm, Saturday-Sunday 10:30am-11pm.

Eating Bacon, No Drinking, No Smoking, No Partying!

Posted on December 30th, 2020 · Music/Events/Other · 6 Comments »

This tale originally posted on July 10th, 2014.
By the way, the primary subject of the post, Miss “Susie” Susannah Mushatt Jones passed away on May 12th, 2016.

Posted on July 10th, 2014.

* Eating Bacon, No Drinking, No Smoking, No Partying!

Just read the below aol.com “story”–about some 115 year old Brooklyn woman- Miss Susie who attributes her longevity to eating bacon every single morning and abstaining from alcohol, smoking and partying…

Now let me see,

Jeff Eats was born in Brooklyn. CHECK!
Jeff Eats- eats bacon, but not every single morning. ALMOST CHECK!
Jeff Eats-doesn’t drink. CHECK!
Jeff Eats-doesn’t smoke. CHECK!
Jeff Eats-hasn’t been to a Bar or Bat Mitzvah in something like a year. CHECK!

Rounding out things, using Miss Susie’s formula, I’m probably good for another 20-35 years…of course I’ll have to jump- my bacon consumption to every day to make the numbers work!- Also, does the bacon have to be eaten in the morning and how much bacon do I have to eat? Also, do you guys think I could substitute bbq pork ribs for the bacon on Tuesdays and Fridays?

You folks can play mathematician and figure out your own life spans…

Enjoy the article.
*****
BROOKLYN (PIX11) – 1899 was quite the year. It’s when Staten Island and Queens officially became part of New York City, the paper clip was introduced, and Miss Susannah Mushatt Jones made her debut115 years later, all are still alive and well, but Miss Susie is the one with reason to celebrate.

The Brooklyn community that she has called home for the past several decades gathered at the Vandalia Senior Center in Brooklyn to honor the super centenarian to celebrate her 115th birthday.

Miss Susie has a lot to brag about. She is New York City’s oldest resident, has lived in the 19th, 20th, and 21st centuries, and she has more than 100 nieces and nephews.

“You know what she does, she eats bacon,” Jones’ Goddaughter Valerie Price told PIX11 News last year, shedding light on how Miss Susie has lasted so long. “She eats bacon every single morning. Now I don’t advocate that because I don’t even eat it myself but that’s what it is.”

Today, Miss Susie admits that abstaining from alcohol, smoking, and partying probably helped her live as long as she has.

To put everything in perspective, Miss Susie has survived two World Wars, 22 U.S. presidents, the Great Depression, the Cold War, the birth of the telephone, radio, TV and internet, the Civil Rights Movement, and every Super Bowl and World Series ever played.
