***** MacDaddy Sub Shop, 8966 Cleary Boulevard, Plantation, Florida 33324, (954) 473-1111.

Got a real-good sub joint for you guys, MacDaddy Sub Shop in Plantation.

Unless you just arrived on a spaceship from Mars, you know exactly what the ‘deal” at MacDaddy is- hot & cold large-small subs, wraps, salads- order & pickup at counter, handful of tables!

Jeff Eats and a couple of buddies did a recent lunch there and I gotta tell MacDaddy served up some real-delicious sandwiches! For those who need to know, the joint uses a real nice “soft” sub roll!

Jeff Eats is kinda thinking that some of you guys might like longer-more detailed “stories”- if that’s your game, I recommend War & Peace by Leo Tolstoy!

Jeff Eats really enjoyed MacDaddy Sub Shop which is open Monday-Friday 10am-5pm, Saturday 10am-4pm, closed Sunday.

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

***** Lucky’s Saloon, 134 North Krome Avenue, Homestead, Florids 33030, (786) 610-0791.

Got a real good sports bar for you guys, Lucky’s Saloon in Homestead.

Last week, Jeff Eats, Mrs. Jeff Eats and our old friends (from our Brooklyn Days) Tom and Marie who live in the area-did dinner at Lucky’s Saloon- best described as a small, limited menu, neighborhood sports bar which serves up some real good reasonably priced appetizers, hot dogs, burgers, salads, sandwiches and wings! Just so you guys and Jeff Eats are on the same page, don’t let the limited menu “mention” scare you off or nothing, with the bet being- that you’ll find what to eat, but don’t be looking for no T-bone steaks or huge portions of veal parmigiana!

Now for the best part of the story, Tom picked-up the check!

Anyway, Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats really enjoyed Lucky’s Saloon which by the way, has an events calendar that includes live music acts and karaoke nights!

You can checkout Lucky’s Saloon’s menu/prices/events calendar/info at luckyssalooncom.

Lucky’s Saloon is open, Monday-Thursday 11am-10pm, Friday-Saturday 11am-2am, Sunday 11am-midnight.

The Three Tenors (who can’t sing) is a night of stand-up (and a sit down) with three made men of comedy. Having just finished a 27 city national tour in April of 2016, The Three Tenors is happy to be back the Box!

DiBitetto has taken the internet by storm with over one hundred million views, multiple viral videos and his own television talk show. Vic has been touring the country selling out clubs and theaters along the way with his murderous brand of comedy that kills audiences.

Joining DiBitetto will be a rotating roster of hilarious headliners and special guests along the way!! Vic and his other Tenors will bring their incredible stand up and sit down comedy to the Box this February! It’s blue collar comedy in a red sauce!!

More about Vic DiBitetto… ‘The Italian Hurricane’

An incredibly powerful performer, comedian Vic DiBitetto churns energy, honesty and humanity into nonstop laughter. His pace is frenetic. His material vivid and true. He’s been called a cross between Rodney Dangerfield and Ralph Kramden. The bottom line is, DiBitetto leaves his audiences breathless with laughter.
Referred to by most other comics as a “killer”, it means you just can’t follow Vic onstage. And that has been uttered by many very famous stand-ups over the years.
Vic is currently:

Featured in Kevin James’ new movie Mall Cop: Blart 2 coming out in April 2015
Starring in Don’t Know Jack, a prime time Hulu Original scripted sit-com slated for Fall 2014
Writing and Producing his Ticked Off Vic segment for 95.5 WPLJ FM in New York City (reaches 3 million people) AND NJ101.5 FM in New Jersey (#1 radio station in NJ)
An Internet Sensation with over 22 million YouTube views and his now famous Bread and Milk and Justin Bieber viral rants
Featured, with other celebrities, in a video roll-in segment in the play Italian Bred coming to Broadway (Fall 2014)
Named the Grand Marshal for the NYPD Columbia Association in the 2014 Columbus Day Parade in NYC and will walk at the front with Mayor de Blasio and Police Commissioner Bratton.
One of the hottest Stand Up Comedians in the country

Vic has appeared on television’s America’s Funniest People (ABC) where he was a $10,000 Grand Prize winner as well as Stand-Up Spotlight (VH1) and Last Laugh at Pips and acted in a pilot with Woody Allen and Danny Aiello. In addition, he has warmed-up hundreds of audiences for hit shows such as Who Wants To Be A Millionaire and The Ricki Lake Show. Vic has performed at many of the nation’s best comedy venues such as New York City’s Dangerfield’s, Los Angeles’ Laugh Factory, Las Vegas’ Riviera Hotel, Resorts World Casino and Atlantic City’s Borgata Hotel. His schedule is relentless and he is booked thru 2015 at every comedy venue imaginable in the New York Tri-State area. A Pay Per View special and major US Tour are in current discussions.

***** 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.

***** Munch Box, 6101 Estero Boulevard, Fort Myers Beach, Florida 33931, (239) 463-1889.

Got a good mom & pop breakfast/lunch joint for you guys- Munch Box in Fort Myers. Kinda strange hours, Sunday 8am-11:30am, Monday-Saturday 8am-1pm. Jeff Eats figures that when a joint has been in business for 28 years, it knows its business!

Long story short,

Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats did a recent breakfast at Munch Box and its food/Aunt Bea service were A-OK! Now, nothing earth shattering-great going on there, but when Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats can spend a good-40 minutes with a bottomless coffee pot, eggs, bacon, waffles, french toast, hash browns, toast- peacefully chatting about the Jeff Eats’ kids, the new dryer and dishwasher we got from Brandsmart two weeks ago, the problem we had with an “open box” 60″ Samsung tv we bought at Best Buy in November, a new car lease in the works and an upcoming June-trip to Woodstock, New York- Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats have had a very enjoyable breakfast! For the curious, 26 of the 40 minutes were spent on the Jeff Eats’ kids part of the breakfast equation!
