Got a joint that you guys may want to checkout- Rise Biscuits & Donuts scheduled to open in Coral Springs this coming Saturday, December, 2, 2017 (7am-2pm)!
Jeff Eats’ very dear friend, Nick lives in Durham, North Carolina. For the past several years, he has been telling me- actually he’s been raving about a fast food biscuit/donut chain- named Rise Biscuits & Donuts which supposedly makes off-the-chart delicious donuts, biscuits, sandwiches and salads!
Checking Rise Biscuits & Donuts’ website (risebiscuitsdonuts.com) Jeff Eats found- that Rise currently has 1- Texas location, 1- Georgia location, 1- Virginia location and 10- North Carolina locations. I also found a list of “Coming Soon” locations and like I said 2 seconds ago- a Coral Springs’ location is set to open this coming Saturday!
Checking YELP and other review sites, Jeff Eats found tons and I do mean tons of positive comments about Rise Biscuits & Donuts!
You guys now know about- as much as Jeff Eats does about Rise Biscuits & Donuts- with that in mind, next week Jeff Eats is going to checkout the Coral Springs’ location- followed by my take on the joint!
You guys can check Rise Biscuits & Donuts’ website risebiscuitsdonuts.com for locations/ menu/ info.

SERVING THE BEST DANG BISCUITS & DONUTS
We opened Rise in Durham in 2012 with a simple vision…serve great food at an affordable price point, made with premium quality ingredients by people who care. In other words, not your typical breakfast spot! Since then, we’ve expanded to eleven locations in North Carolina, locations in Texas, Virginia and Georgia, and new stores on the way.
Rise serves biscuits, donuts and sandwiches from 7am-2pm every day, waitstaff-free and with a swift service line. We’ve got fresh coffee, juices, and milk for you to enjoy while you wait.
At breakfast time, we offer unique biscuit sandwiches featuring everyday favorite fillings like our buttermilk-brined fried chicken, crispy bacon, salt-cured ham and country sausage topped with egg, cheese, and spreads. Come lunchtime, the menu shifts to sandwiches on a potato roll, including our righteous chicken, Savory Buffalo Chicken with house-made buffalo sauce, shaved celery and blue cheese sauce, and limited time offerings like the Cubano with roast pork loin, smoked ham, Swiss cheese, pickles and mustard. Yeast and cake donuts are available throughout the day and feature unique flavors like the Maple Bacon Bar and Crème Brulee.
Rise is about more than just crave-worthy food. We’re indebted and committed to our customers, employees, and community. We are proud of our company culture and care deeply about the community that has grown up around our food. We love involving customers in the process, and hearing about what you like and don’t like. Talk to us, we’ll respond.
Everything at Rise is prepped and cooked fresh daily, so donuts and biscuits sometimes sell out and are subject to change. Come early!

***** Jaxson’s Ice Cream Parlor, 128 South Federal Highway, Dania Beach , Florida 33004, (954) 023-4445.
Jaxson’s has been around something like 50 years. This is one of the greatest joints in all of South Florida, not to mention the United States, to get great home-made ice cream. The Food Channel has done several stories on Jaxson’s.
Decorated in Early American License Plate, Jaxson’s is located in a non-descript strip-shopping center in Dania Beach. The joint is packed day and night with people stuffing their faces with some of the most delicious ice cream that you have ever tasted. The portions are enormous and “individual” servings can feed 1-2-3 people. Jaxson’s also does, burgers, hot dogs, salads etc., but the game here is ICE CREAM. Personally, my favorite is a waffle with a scoop of strawberry and a scoop of mocha chip. That single dish, is big enough to serve 2-3 people. Be smart and don’t over order here, because (1) you will be wasting a ton of great ice cream and (2) you will be wasting a ton of money.
I am telling you that you absolutely positively want to try this joint. The ice cream and food are great…the atmosphere is terrific…the service is terrific…and the “penny candy” assortment at the front of the joint will have you reminiscing about 1950’s Brooklyn-Bronx-Queens (etc,).
There are always lines waiting to get in and for take-out. Jaxson’s is open 7-days a week…Monday-Thursday 11:30am-11pm…Friday-Saturday 11:30am- midnight…Sunday noon-11pm.

***** China Steak House 3, 8565 Coral Way, Miami, Florida 33155, (305) 262-1228.
Let’s file this tale in the “out of sight, out of mind” category!
Jeff Eats first told you guys about China Steak House 3 on 9/28/15- truth be told, hadn’t been back since, that is until last night’s dinner with Mrs. Jeff Eats, Daughter Jeff Eats and Son Jeff Eats. For the curious- as to why such a long hiatus from such a terrific Chinese restaurant?- I’m just guessing that the 123 mile round trip drive from Jeff Eats’ Boca Raton abode to China Steak House 3’s location had something to do with the roughly 2 year “out of sight of mind” equation!
Long story short, definitely one of the best Brooklyn Jewish American-Chinese circa 1957 joints in Florida!
End of tale!

***** China Steak House 3, 8565 Coral Way, Miami, Florida 33155, (305) 262-1228.
Got a real-good Chinese joint for you guys…China Steak House in Miami.
Jeff Eats, Mrs. Jeff Eats and another couple recently did dinner and I gotta tell you- some of the best Chinese food I’ve had down here in Sunny South Florida.
For you guys looking for “real” Chinese food- I don’t think so!…no broiled squid eyeballs, fried monkey noses or roasted elephant tits…just solid Brooklyn-Jewish-American-Chinese food circa 1957!
Real simple order:
Wonton Soup
Egg Drop Soup
Egg Rolls
Barbecued Spare Ribs
Roast Pork Fried Rice
Chicken Lo Mein
Sweet & Sour Pork
Pepper Steak
Shrimp With Lobster Sauce
Like I said a few seconds ago, right on the money/delicious… Brooklyn-Jewish-American-Chinese food circa 1957! The above order- give or take a Lobster Cantonese, or a Chicken Chop Suey here and there, is basically what every and I do mean every -(non-kosher) Brooklyn Jewish Family in the 50’s & 60’s ordered on Sunday Night at the local Chinese joint…same for the Jews of- Queens, Manhattan and “The” Bronx!-as for Staten Island- crappy sewers limited the number of Jews who lived there…for some reason, Jews needed good sewers while the Tony Sopranos of the world, the Irish and Italians didn’t! Go figure! That said, the Jews that did live there, stuck to the “script” as outlined above! One other 50’s and 60’s “thing”- we use to call it “Going For Chinks”- but from what Jeff Eats understands, the word “Chink” is now politically incorrect- and today, the proper term is Chinese or Asian…
Anyway,
You can check menu/prices at chinesesteakhouse3.com
One final thing, the joint makes a $19.95 “China Steak” (32oz- broiled prime sirloin steak with mixed Chinese vegetables) that- is totally-off the chart delicious- so if you eat here, make sure that you order it!
China Steak House 3 is an absolute home-run!
The joint is open Sunday 11am-10:30pm, Monday-Thursday 11am-10pm, Friday-Saturday 11am-11pm.

***** Burtons Grill & Bar, 5580 North Military Trail, Boca Raton, Florida 33496, (561) 465-2036.
Got a real good American-Style joint for you guys to checkout, Burtons Grill & Bar which opened 6-weeks ago in Boca Raton.
Great looking free-standing building restaurant which seats something like 300 featuring an open kitchen/ a full liquor bar/ table & booth seating/ a menu loaded with reasonably priced- appetizers, soups, salads, sandwiches, entrees, paleo dishes, vegetarian dishes, gluten free dishes, desserts.
Like I said 2 seconds ago, Burtons Grill & Bar opened 6-weeks ago in Boca Raton- that said, this joint isn’t Burtons owners’ first rodeo in that they also have 13 other Burtons Grill & Bars spread-out over Massachusetts, Connecticut, New Hamphshire, Virginia, South Carolina and North Carolina!
Long story short, last night Jeff Eats, Mrs. Jeff Eats and two other couples did-dinner at Burtons and I gotta tell you, its food and service were right on the money! Just between you guys and Jeff Eats, unless my hearing is going- during and after the meal I didn’t hear even one single bitch about “anything”- so Jeff Eats is kinda thinking that Burtons Grill & Bar has a winning formula figured out!
Let me wrap Burtons Grill & Bar up for you guys- by telling you that the joint is open Monday-Thursday 11:30am-10pm, Friday-Saturday 11:30am-10;30pm, Sunday 11:30am-9pm- and you can checkout menu/prices/info at burtonsgrill.com.
