Got a real good pizza joint for you guys to check-out, Two Tomatoes in Boynton Beach.

Yesterday, Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats gave Two Tomatoes a shot and I gotta tell you guys that the ordered -10” meatball parmigiana sub ($8.25), 2 pizza slices with fountain drink “special” ($5.99) and large antipasto salad ($9.95) were all right on the money delicious! Now I’m not gonna name names, but Two Tomatoes’ food was as good if not better than most of the “mom & pop” Italian and sub joints that we frequent by our house in Boca Raton!

Let me wrap Two Tomatoes up for you guys by saying- this joint is a winner and that if you live, work, visit or play in its neighborhood- give it a try!

Fronted by the amazing vocals and piano of Michael DelGuidice and backed by one of the most dynamic and seasoned bands in the industry (and members of Bill Joel’s own band), this high-energy and interactive concert is packed with hit after chart-topping hit by Billy Joel as well as astonishing renditions of songs by Paul McCartney, Elton John, The Beatles, Journey and Chicago.

“They had a hard time convincing me it wasn’t me. It’s uncanny.”
– BILLY JOEL in the New York Times

Mike DelGuidice, one of Long Island’s most celebrated performers. After 18 years of playing Billy Joel’s music in his band Big Shot, Mike DelGuidice now lives a dream come true. In October of 2013, Billy Joel heard Mike sing, and personally hired Mike to join his band. Mike’s encyclopedic knowledge of the Billy Joel catalog made him a perfect fit as background vocalist and guitarist for BILLY JOEL. And now you can see Mike on tour with Billy Joel all over the US & world in major arenas and stadiums including every month at the iconic Madison Square Garden.

Mike is a brilliant vocalist and composer and a master of several instruments including bass guitar, guitar, piano and drums.

He is the author of two albums “My Street” and “Miller Place” and several of his new songs are currently under favored consideration for film soundtracks, including Mike’s song, “Ordinary Guy” which is the theme song for the Keven James sitcom, “Kevin Can Wait”.
Mike now juggles his busy schedule with his band Big Shot along with weekly shows around the USA and abroad with Billy Joel.

A recent e-mail received by Jeff Eats…

Jeff,
Looking for a top-notch Boca Raton Italian-food caterer for an office lunch party for 50+ people at our Boca Raton office in early May, 2018. Maybe you can help me here, I see a load of sub and pizza shops listed but can you recommend a ‘real’ caterer that can handle salads, hot/cold subs, hot/cold dishes, salads, desserts for the event?
Your suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Very Truly Yours,
Linda Esposito

Linda Esposito,

Now no promises here- that said, about a month ago- Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats attended a luncheon for something like 40 people catered by Capitini’s Italian Deli & Catering and its food was off the chart delicious.

Check Capitini’s out!

Thanks for reading…

A recent e-mail received by Jeff Eats…

Jeff,
Ive been reading jeffeats.com for years. I love your style and many of your picks.
I’m a big fan of V&S Deli and LaSpada in the sub department. But to be perfectly honest with you, after eating at both for years I’m kind of bored by their offerings.
I’m thinking that if I’m bored, you as a Boca resident must be really BORED!
Besides V&S and LaSpada where do you go for great subs in Boca?
Thanks,

John Como

Just between you and me…

***** Swifty’s Market Grill & Deli, 2001 Northwest Boca Raton Boulevard, Boca Raton, Florida 33431, (561) 395-7131.

Now, let’s be honest with one- another…

Have you ever met a sub-hoagie-grinder-blimpie (you- fill in your favorite regional “term”) that you didn’t like? Now for sure, some subs (that’s what Jeff Eats calls them) are better than others…but I can’t ever recall saying…”Boy this sub stinks. I’m not going to eat it. Let me just throw it in that garbage can over there.”

Anyway,

Not sure on this…but over the past few years- I must have driven by Swifty’s Market Grill & Deli something like 25,209,849 times without ever stopping. From the outside-and actually from the inside too–it’s basically a “hole in the wall” convenience store. As the old saying goes, “Don’t judge a book by its cover.”–well- in the back of the convenience store is- a take-out-only- sub-counter that makes the full-boat of hot and cold hoagies..

For what it’s worth, I just got back from Swifty’s Market Grill & Deli and as I type–I am enjoying one of the most delicious grilled Philly Cheesesteak Subs (chopped steak/American Cheese/grilled onions/peppers) that I’ve ever had. Really just that simple!

Based alone-on its Philly Cheesesteak Sub…Swifty Market Grill & Deli is a must try.

For the curious, Jeff Eats was “tipped” this morning (while walking Jiggy Eats) to- Swifty’s by a Comcast serviceman who was working down the block from my home.

Let me wrap this up…

Finally-Comcast did something right!

Swifty’s Market Grill & Deli is open Monday-Saturday 7am-10pm, Sunday 9am-9pm.
