***** 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.

***** Giovanni’s Pizza, 21401 Powerline Road, Boca Raton, Florida 33433, (561) 483-7900.

Real short story to tell you guys…

Last night- I had a couple of guys doing some handyman stuff around my Boca Raton home. The guys took a dinner break and brought back 2 pizzas from Giovanni’s Pizza (a hole in the wall pizza joint which maybe has 5 tables- which I must have driven-by something like a 1,000 times, but had never tried) and I helped myself to a couple of slices from each pie!

Both the New York Style Pepperoni Cheese Pizza and the Chicago Deep Dish Pizza were seriously off the chart delicious!

That’s the story in a nutshell.

Based on the pizza, in the near future- I’m definitely gonna make it my business to get over to Giovanni’s and try some of its other stuff-out!

Giovanni’s is open Tuesday-Sunday 4pm-midnight/closed Monday.

You can check menu/prices/info at giovannispizzaofboca.com.

* Doo Wop Tribute by Reunion.

This one is for all you guys (and would be burglars) out there who maybe wondering where Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats are going to be tomorrow night- Thursday, August 2, 2018…

Free Concert: 6:30pm
Thursday- August 2, 2018
Doo Wop Tribute by Reunion
Food Trucks: 5pm-9:30pm
(Bring chairs/blankets)

Wellington Amphitheater
12100 Forest Hill Boulevard
Wellington, Florida 33414

Not exactly sure “which” food trucks are gonna be out there- but I’m kinda thinking that Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats will find what to eat!

Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats have seen the Reunion band loads of times- trust me, these guys are absolutely dynamite when it comes to doo wop/50’s, 60’s & 70’s Rock ‘n Roll covers!

One final thought, for all of you would be burglars out there (who maybe contemplating an unannounced visit tomorrow night- to the Eats’ residence)- our next-door neighbor’s dog Louie is gonna be babysitting our house while we’re at the show! Please don’t judge a book by its cover- Louie really is a very sweet puppy!

***** Panda All Natural Soft Black Licorice.

First things first- since I was a kid, I’ve loved black licorice! For those of you who may care- I like red licorice but I love black licorice! For you guys who maybe really sick (I mean really care)- Mrs. Jeff Eats doesn’t like black or red licorice!

Anyway,

About a week-or-so-ago, I came across Panda All Natural Soft Black Licorice while shopping at Publix, 3003 Yamato Road, Boca Raton, Florida 33434, (561) 241-5005- and spotted a whole bunch of bags of Panda All Natural Soft Black Licorice. Being a wild and crazy guy- I decided what the heck- and decided to give the Panda brand a try- purchasing 2 bags for $7.90 (for those of you who are math-challenged- that’s $3.87 a bag😜)!

Long story short- absolutely delicious! Now I’m not gonna name names- like Twizzlers Black Licorice Twists or Twizzlers Black Licorice Nibs but trust me when I tell you that Panda All Natural Soft Black Licorice ran/runs absolute circles around most of the black licorice brands that you’ll find at Publix, Walmart, Target, Costco, Winn-Dixie etc.

If you like black licorice- you gotta try Panda All Natural Soft Black Licorice!

Like I said 4 seconds ago, I got my Panda All Natural Soft Black Licorice at the Publix by my house in Boca Raton. A cursory internet search turned-up a ton of online/brick and mortar Panda retailers!
