Posted on November 19th, 2017 · Desserts Dish Of The Week Italian · 5 Comments »

***** DISH OF THE WEEK (Sunday- 11/19/17- Lindy’s Homemade Italian Lemon Ice).

One of Jeff Eats’ favorite menu items…

LINDY’S HOMEMADE ITALIAN LEMON ICE
$2.43 (6- 6oz cups)

Jeff Eats “knows” Italian Ices- and Lindy’s Homemade Italian Lemon Ice tastes just like the Brooklyn pizza joint scoops I grew-up on in the 1950s-1960s. Trust me on this one, absolutely delicious!

In Florida, only- Walmart and Winn Dixie carry Lindy’s Homemade Italian Ice.

By the way, in addition to lemon- Jeff Eats has had Lindy’s watermelon/ strawberry/ cherry/ pineapple Italian ices and they were all good- with lemon being my favorite flavor!

You can check lindysitalianice.com for retail locations/product line/info.

***** Lindy’s Homemade Italian Ice.

Real simple tale to tell you guys…

Last night, Jeff Eats was “roaming” the frozen food section of the Walmart Supercenter located at 16205 South Military Trail, Delray Beach (don’t say nothing!) and I came across Lindy’s Homemade Italian Ice and bought-2 boxes (1 lemon, 1 strawberry- 6 6 oz. cups to a box- $2.43 per box) and I gotta tell you guys- definitely some of the best “supermarket” Italian ices- I’ve had in a very long time!

Jeff Eats did some quick checking at lindysitalianice.com and found that Lindy’s has 11 flavors (the Walmart Jeff Eats went to- only had lemon and strawberry) and in the State of Florida- only Walmart and Winn Dixie carry the brand!

By the way, the “cups” don’t come topped with big delicious scoops of ices-as pictured down below! But you guys knew that already- well, at least some of you did!

Comedian Bobby Collins has an ability to truthfully translate the human condition. Through precise physical timing and impeccable audience insight, he has honed his talents while performing from hole in the wall clubs to sold out theaters. His true dedication to his craft is what keeps his vibrant shows consistently sold out.

A native New Yorker, Collins possesses a confidence and genuine everyman likeability that can only be earned. He knows what it’s like to work a day job, in order to pursue a dream. He’s flipped his share of burgers, as well as signing on as a substitute high school history teacher, to pay the bills – all the while performing in comedy clubs at night.

Realizing his dream has given Bobby the opportunity to tour with titans of entertainment like Frank Sinatra, Cher, Julio Iglesias and Dolly Parton. As a professional stand-up comedian, he’s worked alongside friends, Chris Rock, Ray Romano and Drew Carey, as well as many others. Rosie O’Donnell specifically requested that Bobby take over as host for Stand-Up Spotlight. Collins is widely regarded as a “comic’s comic.”
