BRANDON BENNETT

Delray Beach Playhouse
950 NW 9th St. Delray Beach, FL 33444

ELVIS: MY WAY STARRING BRANDON BENNETT – The electrifying Brandon Bennett (Chicago: Million Dollar Quartet) does the impossible, delivering a spine-tingling Elvis tribute that is fresh, powerful, and right on time. With his pure-bred southern charm, powerful voice, and scandalous moves Bennett was named the “Ultimate Elvis Tribute Artist” by Elvis Presley Enterprises at Graceland. His must-see show traverses Elvis’ career: from the Rock n’ Roll nativity of the 50s, to the iconic comeback television concert of the 60s, to the legendary lounge acts of the 70s. All-time great hits include “Blue Suede Shoes,” “Can’t Help Falling In Love,” “Suspicious Minds,” and many more. ABOUT THE ARTIST: BRANDON BENNETT – ELVIS MY WAY stars highly acclaimed Elvis tribute artist, the electrifying Brandon Bennett. Brandon appeared as Elvis Presley in Chicago’s long-running, smash-hit musical MILLION DOLLAR QUARTET. Previously, he starred in the Montreal company of THE ELVIS STORY. His spine-tingling act can also be seen in festivals, cruises, commercials, and casinos across America. Television appearances include THE LATE SHOW WITH DAVID LETTERMAN and THE ROSIE O’DONNELL SHOW. A native son of Ponchatoula, Louisiana, Brandon’s southern roots, God-given talent, and natural resemblance to The King of Rock ‘n Roll allow him to uniquely evoke the unmistakable essence of Elvis’s charm onstage. He has been honored to sing alongside music legends such as The Jordanaires, DJ Fontana, and The Sweet Inspirations, as well as open for Diamond Rio, Ronnie Millsap, and Chuck Berry. Brandon’s uncanny performances have earned numerous accolades, including the prestigious “Ultimate Elvis Tribute Artist” title bestowed by Elvis Presley Enterprises at Graceland.

Yolk, 5570 North Military Trail, Boca Raton, Florida 33496, (561) 300-4965.

Yolk is a breakfast/lunch- joint that opened something like 3 weeks ago in Boca Raton.

For the record, Yolk currently has 8 locations in Chicago, 3 locations in Indianapolis, 1 location in Fort Worth, 2 locations in Dallas and the aforemtioned Boca Raton location!

You can check menu/prices/locations/info at eatyolk.com.

Yolk is open 7 days a week 7am-3pm.

Last week Jeff Eats and 3 buddies- ate breakfast at the Boca Raton location (which has indoor booth/ counter/ table seating and outdoor table/ counter seating) and I gotta tell you that the only difference between the Titanic and Yolk is that the Titanic had a band!-(I know, overly dramatic!).

In a nutshell- amateurish service, big time mediocre over-priced food!

Rather than go into detail and color about our meal- trust me when I tell you that the joint batted 4 out of 4- with each of us rating the food and service lousy. Just so you know where I’m coming from, my waffle with fried chicken and scrambled eggs had absolutely (and I do mean, absolutely) no taste whatsoever- when the chicken was then “foolishly” topped by me with the gravy side, it was so horrendously salty- that the entire dish then became a totally inedible disaster! Look! Jeff Eats is a pretty easy going guy, but I just hate when I get rolled!

The bet here, is that the guy(s) who owns (I’m thinking that the Boca Raton location is a franchise-or operating partner type deal) isn’t gonna be a happy financial-camper with this Florida venture! The joint’s lousy location and the area’s piss poor demographics are a story for another day!

Now, you guys and I both know that Jeff Eats could be dead wrong on “this” call- you know, what I like, you might hate and vice versa…with that in mind, if you have already tried/ or do decide to try Yolk- I’d be interested in your respective thoughts!

Just in case you guys haven’t heard about Fireman Derek’s, this Wynwood hole-in-the wall bakery makes absolutely off the chart delicious pies, cakes and cookies! For sure, at 30 bucks a pop the 9” pies aren’t exactly cheap, but like I just said, off the chart delicious!
