The Emmy-winning hit sitcom Seinfeld, also known as “the show about nothing,” ruled the zeitgeist in the ’90s with its memorable bits and catch-phrases, and even launched the holiday Festivus, which is still celebrated today. Join stand-up comics Sheba Mason (daughter of Jackie) and David R. Gordon at the Empire Stage in Lauderdale for a trivia contest, complete with included wine and prizes, that’ll test your grasp of such topics as “double dipping,” “regifting,” “man hands,” “puffy shirts,” “shrinkage” and “sparing squares” and such characters as Newman, Art Vandelay, Uncle Leo, Puddy and the Soup Nazi — not that there’s anything wrong with that.

When I think Batman, I think Adam West not Michael Keaton, Val Kilmer, George Clooney, Christian Bale or Ben Affleck!

***** Banquet ‘Brown ‘N Serve Original 8 Fully Cooked Sausage Patties.

First things first, you can buy Banquet ‘Brown ‘N Serve Original 8 Fully Cooked Sausage Patties at your favorite grocery store!

Ten minutes ago in Jeff Eats’ Home Kitchen- both Daughter Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats after taking bites out of cooked patties- rated the patties “nasty” and threw the rest of their respective patties in the garbage. On the other-hand, unlicensed dietician Jeff Eats after taking a bite from a patty- paired the remaining 6 cooked patties up with a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice and started thinking about the next worthless taste-test that I could conduct and then tell you guys about!

Trust Jeff Eats when I tell you that you’d be hard pressed to find a better fast food/order-pickup at the counter Greek joint in Florida. Dynamite food, big portions, reasonable prices! Now, Jeff Eats might be going out on a limb here because I don’t personally know most of you guys, but unless you’re a Two Ton Tony Galento type character- that Gyro Platter should comfortably feed two people!

By the way, It’s All Greek To Me! Grill recently opened a second location- 5456 West Sample Road, Margate, Florida 33073, (754) 307-9980.

One final thought, if the above pictured Gyro Platter doesn’t exactly work for you- It’s All Greek To Me! Grill’s- Grilled Chicken With Greek Salad Platter ain’t exactly a slouch either!

It’s All Greek To Me! Grill- pretty original name, NOT! Right up there with, Jimmy The Greek—there must be 10,000,022 joints in North America using that one.

Anyway, if you want some absolutely delcious–very reasonably priced–order at the counter Greek food…give, It’s All Greek To Me! Grill a shot. You can check menu/prices/photos at www.itsallgreektome-grill.com.

A recent outing had me “sampling”- pork souvlaki pita ($4.99), gyro pita ($4.99), grilled lamb chops ($16.99), mousaka (9.95)…like I said before, delicious stuff. A special shoutout to that gyro!

It’s All Greek To Me! Grill is open Monday-Saturday 11am-9pm. The joint is closed on Sunday.

While Peter J. Fogel might be “America’s funniest comedian you’ve never heard of,” you have seen him.

Tasty Wok BBQ & Noodle House (Orlando)

Posted on June 8th, 2017 · Chinese Orlando · 5 Comments »

***** Tasty Wok BBQ & Noodle House, 1246 East Colonial Drive, Orlando, Florida 32803, (407) 896-8988.

Consider this tale a “Public Service Announcement.”

Jeff Eats first told you guys about Tasty Wok BBQ & Noodle House way-back on 2/13/13!

For what it’s worth, I’m kinda thinking that now that it’s SUMMER over the next 3-months, a number of you folks are gonna be visiting the Orlando area for various reasons (vacations, college enrollment, etc.). With that in mind, if you don’t “try” Tasty Wok BBQ & Noodle House, 1246 East Colonial Drive, Orlando, Florida 32803, (407) 896-8988- when you’re in Orlando- you’ll be making a huge mistake!

Trust Jeff Eats on this one, some of the best “real” and Brooklyn Jewish American Chinese Food circa 1957 in Florida!

Just so you know, Jeff Eats, Mrs. Jeff Eats and a couple of friends ate there last Sunday night (6/4/17)- thus the “Public Service Announcement.”

No bs- this Tasty Wok joint could- easily compete with the best Chinese joints in New York City and San Fransico’s- China Towns!

***** Tasty Wok BBQ & Noodle House, 1246 East Colonial Drive, Orlando, Florida 32803, (407) 896-8988.

This is a very simple Chinese food “story.”

Jeff Eats recently tried Tasty Wok BBQ & Noodle House in Orlando and it was absolutely dynamite.

Real simple…this is a bare bones “hole in the wall” joint—ducks hanging from the ceiling.

Tasty Wok’s menu will please you-guys who want “real” Chinese food (whatever REAL means?)–and also guys like me who are looking for Brooklyn-Jewish circa 1950’s Chinese food.

A recent outing had Jeff Eats, Mrs. Jeff Eats and a bunch of friends doing:
1. wonton soup,
2. egg rolls,
3. fried meat dumplings,
4. roast pork,
5. sweet and sour pork,
6. general tso’s chicken,
7. shrimp in lobster sauce,
8. pepper steak,
9. roast duck
10. shrimp fried rice

Like I said a few seconds ago…absolutely dynamite. No fooling around here, some of the best Chinese food Jeff Eats has eaten in Florida.

Nothing for nothing, food and decor-wise, Tasty Wok could successfully compete with most of NYC Chinatown’s players. To be perfectly honest with you, I’d match Tasty Wok’s roast duck and roast pork up against NYC Chinatown’s best joints–any day of the week. Those two “items” alone, were worth the price of admission.

You Orlandoians got a homerun going here.

Tasty Wok is open 7 days a week 10:30am-9:30pm.

Just a “suggestion”—check the YELP reviews on this one. There are something like 100 reviews and other than a small handful—most folks loved Tasty Wok. The comments should “give” you some more color about Tasty Wok.
