***** Barone’s La Pizzeria, 5632 West Sample Road, Margate, Florida 33073 (954) 968-4396.

Barone’s La Pizzeria is a “Mom & Pop—red sauce” pizza joint located in Margate.
You can check its menu/prices at www.lapizzeriamargate.com.

You know and I know that “Mom & Pop” pizza joints are a dime a dozen-down here in old South Florida. I think the way it works…the strip center landlord first signs Publix, then Walgreens, then a Chinese takeout, then a pizza joint, then a dry cleaners…then a —-(you fill in the blanks)….then half of the businesses go bust…

Anyway, the other evening, I gave Barone’s La Pizzeria a shot- and I gotta tell you, the food is real-good. Jeff Eats’ party did pizza, shrimp scampi, veal parmigiana, meat lasagna, chicken & shrimp alfredo, penne ala vodka—and like I just said, real good!

As you know– over the past few years, old Jeff Eats has eaten-in his fair share of “Mom & Pop” Italian joints…and, to be perfectly honest with you, most of them barely get the job done, but then again, that’s the nature of the beast…”cheap is cheap”….”you get what you pay for”…”one if by land, 2 if by sea.” Trust me on this one, Barone’s La Pizzeria is REAL GOOD…if you live or work near the joint, I highly recommend that you give it a try.

By the way, Barone’s La Pizzeria is right across Sample Road from the Seminole Casino Coconut Creek and is maybe a 3-minute drive (west) from the Festival Flea Market on Sample Road.

Barone’s La Pizzeria is open Sunday-Thursday 11am-10pm and Friday-Saturday 11am-11pm.

***** Gar Sing Chinese Restaurant, 14515 Southwest 42nd Street, Miami, Florida 33175, (305) 554-5120.

Got a real good Chinese joint for you guys to checkout, Gar Sing Chinese Restaurant in Miami.

Real short tale to tell you guys, last night Jeff Eats, Mrs. Jeff Eats, Daughter Jeff Eats, Son Jeff Eats and two of Jeff Eats Son’s buddies did dinner at Gar Sing- and the joint’s food passed Jeff Eats’ Brooklyn Jewish American Chinese circa 1957 Food Taste Test- with flying colors!

Believe me when I tell you guys- this takeout/dine-in (handful of tables) joint’s food was off the chart delicious! No bs- here, Jeff Eats is kinda thinking that Gar Sing could easily compete with NYC Chinatown’s best joints!

Let Jeff Eats wrap Gar Sing Chinese Restaurant up for you guys- the joint is open Monday 2pm-10pm, Tuesday-Sunday noon-10pm- and you can check its menu/info at garsingmiami.com.

***** Tropic Chill Deli, 75 Ninth Street South, Naples, Florida 34102, (239) 262-8339.

Got a real good sandwich/deli joint for you guys to checkout, Tropic Chill Deli in Naples.

Yesterday, Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats “discovered” Tropic Chill Deli and I gotta tell you guys that the joint’s food absolutely killed! Just between us- if Tropic Chill Deli was in Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats’ Boca Raton neighborhood- we would definitely be real steady customers. Dynamite food, reasonable prices, pleasant staff and a menu loaded with a ton (and I do mean a ton) of items to choose from, make this joint an absolute home-run!

Tiffany obtained a long and storied career in a short amount of time, and today her goal is to continue writing songs for herself and others, cementing her status in the industry as a powerhouse hit maker and go-to songwriter.

Just a taste of what you can expect to see…

from bocablackbox.com

What happens when you put three of the most talented women in stand-up comedy together and then take away the one thing that helped each of them cope with kids, relationships, divorce, mortgages, life, etc.? You get Three Hysterical Broads Off Their Medication, a stand-up show that will give you an inside look at the comedic minds of three of the most hysterical women to ever hit the stage.

Vanessa Hollingshead
The moment Vanessa hits the stage, she hits her audience with her insatiable love of what she does. She’ll talk with them and joke with them by telling stories from her life and through the lens of her incredibly larger than-life, poignant hysterical characters she’s met along the way. By the end of Vanessa’s show, her audience who was once full of strangers, she is able to turn into new best friends and extended family. While Vanessa’s real family was out there busy getting high, Vanessa was out there busy getting laughs. Vanessa is an accomplished actor, performance artist, and writer with a TV pilot currently in the works called, Take My Life, Please!

Julia Scotti
Julia’s high-octane machine gun delivery, combined with her hilarious, groundbreaking, and thought-provoking views on most everything, has ignited a buzz across the country. Julia was a quarter-finalist and fan favorite on season 11 of America’s Got Talent NBC 2016 and a judge’s favorite with Simon Cowell saying, “you genuinely made me laugh.” Reminding us how to laugh, people of ALL ages and ALL persuasions just can’t get enough of this ‘Crazy Old Lady of comedy.’ Her current CD Hello Boys…I’m Back! is still hot and climbing.

Lynne Koplitz
Born in New York, but raised in Florida, Lynne Koplitz never lost her Long Island bite. After graduating from Troy University in 1992 with a degree in Theatre Arts and receiving a masters in Education Language Arts, Lynne began following her passion into comedy. Since that day, she has experienced a whirlwind of success on both stage and television. Lynne became the first woman since Roseanne Barr to sign a development deal with legendary producer Tom Werner at Warner Brothers.

***** Aunt D’s Kitchen, 1129 Northeast Jensen Beach Boulevard, Jensen Beach, Florida 34957, (772) 225-1337.

Got a real good “mom & pop” or maybe I should- say “aunt & uncle” diner for you guys to checkout- Aunt D’s Kitchen in Jensen Beach.

Simple concept at work here…breakfast/lunch, counter/table seating, 50’s decor, menu loaded with breakfast stuff/ sandwiches/ burgers/ salads/ daily specials, good food, reasonable prices.

Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats did a recent breakfast at Aunt D’s Kitchen and I gotta tell you- nothing fancy schmancy going on here- just real solid food, pleasant service, the constantly topped-off coffee cups and- Daughter Jeff Eats and Son Jeff Eats not being there- made for a really enjoyable 40 minute drama-free outing!

I don’t know about you guys- but, Jeff Eats any day of the week- would rather eat in an independently owned “mom & pop” diner rather than a large chain operation like IHOP or Perkins! Mind you, there is nothing wrong with the IHOPs and Perkins of the world- call me sentimental or whatever- but in my book, joints like Aunt D’s Kitchen are what America is all about! Hey! For crying out loud, Memorial Day is this coming Monday!😛

Aunt D’s Kitchen is open Monday-Saturday 6:30am-2pm, Sunday 6:30am-1pm.
