***** Sweet Treats Bakery, 2900 West Sample Road, Pompano Beach, Florida 33073, (954) 984-4785.

Got something really terrific for you guys…Sweet Treats Bakery a brand new bakery-concession stand which opened about a-month ago in The Festival Flea Market Mall in Pompano Beach.

Long story short,

Yesterday afternoon- Mrs. Jeff Eats “needed” some baked goods for a bunch of “her” relatives visiting from New York…based on her friend Audrey’s recommendation, Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats picked-up 2-Russian coffee cakes, 2-chocolate babkas, 2 1/2 lbs.of assorted rugelach, 6 almond horns, 1 dozen chocolate chip cookies- for some unknown reason, Mrs. Jeff Eats chose not to run-the-table- by not picking-up some- of the danish, muffins, breads, Chinese cookies, chocolate meltaways, linzer tarts and hamantaschen that Sweet Treats also- features in its display cases.

Sweet Treats is owned/operated by Joanne and Mary- who combined, have 53 years in the retail bakery business…Sweet Treats’ stuff is “baked” off premises and delivered fresh every morning to The Festival Flea Market Mall-joint. From what I understand, when an item is sold out, it’s sold out- until the next day! In addition to the “items” above, Sweet Treats has a number of “no sugar added” products- and has a rotating list of cookies/cakes -that are “daily specials.”

Now, you know and Jeff Eats knows that the proof is in the pudding…and I gotta tell you, that everything we picked-up was right on the money! If I had to, but I don’t, but I will- tell you that the Russian coffee cake and the chocolate babka absolutely killed! These two “cakes” alone- made the use of my SunPass worthwhile. Now don’t get me wrong, everything that Mrs. Jeff Eats’ relatives devoured were hits- but that babka and that coffee cake were game changers.

On the price-front, Joanne and Mary are banging “things”-out at Publix type prices…for example- the babka and coffee cake fetch $7.95 a piece!

Just a word to the wise, based on what Jeff Eats saw…if you “want something in particular” call ahead- and have Joanne or Mary put it away for you…yesterday at 3:30pm, Sweet Treats’ stand was jammed with people literally buying everything in sight!- and like I said 3.2 seconds ago, when an item is sold out, it’s sold out!

Sweet Treats Bakery is open Monday-Friday 9:30am-5pm, Saturday-Sunday 9:30am-6pm.

***** 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.

***** Toasted Cafe, 5428 West Atlantic Boulevard, Margate, Florida 33063, (954) 970-3322.

Got a real good “mom & pop” diner for you guys to check-out, Toasted Cafe in Margate.

Real simple tale, open 7 days a week 6am-3pm, reasonably priced— breakfast stuff/ burgers/ sandwiches/ salads/ entrees, table and counter seating.

You regular Jeff Eats’ readers probably know by now- that Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats are huge “mom & pop” diner fans. Just between us, there is absolutely nothing wrong with the “IHOP and Perkins” chains of this world- that said, Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats would rather give our hard earned money- to the every day folks (“moms & pops”)- who day in-and-day out bust their asses to make a living- running small diners that they literally built from the ground-up!

Long story short, yesterday Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats did breakfast at the Toasted Cafe and the joint’s food killed!

Let me wrap- Toasted Cafe up by saying, Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats loved the joint- solid food, very pleasant service, reasonable prices, “correct” decor and vibe!
