Fred Rubino was born on the lower east side of Manhattan in New York City and then moved to Brooklyn. It is here where Fred developed, at an early age, the basis for his comedy material and the humor and hilarity of growing up Italian and in Brooklyn! In 2005 Fred became a published author with the release of his conspiracy driven book Nazi Princess: The Final Deception which actually isn’t funny at all!!! Three years later, Fred turned his interest to writing and performing stand up comedy. Opening up for comics such as Nick Dipaolo and Vic Dibitetto, Fred quickly became the featured comic everyone wanted to use! He has also appeared on Radio Opie and Anthony’s top ten funniest listeners radio show, recently had his performance broadcast live on the internet via Action Audio and has made many appearances on local cable talk shows where he has performed his hilarious standup. Fred has now successfully transitioned from Featured Comic to Star and Headlining Comedian.

* Frank Theatres CineBowl & Grille/Burger & Beer Joint at Delray Marketplace presents- Tribute Bands Spring Concert Series.

It’s a free “concert” series featuring eight shows!

Jeff Eats has seen all of the tribute “acts” listed and I gotta tell you- nice, strong lineup! By the way- Burger & Beer Joint’s food is absolutely terrific! If you like, you can check Jeff Eats’ 2/9/17 Burger & Beer Joint story for my thoughts on the joint, if not, not!

***** American Coffee Shop, 41 Northeast 44th Street, Oakland Park, Florida 33334, (954) 772-8850.

Do you guys know what it means to be scarily good?

Well, if you don’t- go eat at American/Spanish- breakfast/lunch- “mom & pop” diner- American Coffee Shop in Oakland Park and then you’ll know!

Jeff Eats first told you guys about American Coffee Shop way-back on 7/4/14…

Long story short- hadn’t been back since- that is until yesterday, when Jeff Eats and three buddies did breakfast there.

Like I said, scary good!

American Coffee Shop is an absolute must try!

Posted on July 4th, 2014

***** American Coffee Shop, 41 Northeast 44th Street, Oakland Park, Florida 33334, (954) 772-8850.

American Coffee Shop…American and Spanish food.

Let Jeff Eats start by saying, I loved American Coffee Shop. This joint “is” what JeffEats.com “is” all about…finding the best joints in South Florida… American Coffee shop-a hole in the wall “mom & pop” diner in a bombed out strip center with cool ambiance, delicious food, reasonable prices, terrific owners/staff.

American Coffee Shop is open Monday-Saturday 7am-3pm, Sunday 7am-1pm.

For the record, Jeff Eats did both a breakfast and a lunch at American Coffee Shop.

When you check the joint’s menu at americancoffeeshop.net you’ll find both breakfast/lunch menus. The breakfast menu is loaded with-expected American fare…the lunch menu is loaded with-expected American stuff and is also loaded with Spanish/latin stuff.

On the breakfast outing, the western omelet/farmer’s omelet/french toast were exactly what the doctor ordered. Look! -breakfast is breakfast, but good stuff/friendly service/endless-timely coffee refills/owners who stop by to say hello/cool old diner decor–is what makes joints like American Coffee Shop-winners in Jeff Eats’ book.

On the lunch outing, the cheeseburger/steak fajitas/Cuban sandwich were all delicious. On the second “meal” the same great vibe/decor/service were there, not to mention soda glasses that were never even close to being empty.

Like I said a few seconds ago, Jeff Eats loved America Coffee Shop…this joint is a must try!

***** Uncle Gary’s Rock & Rib Fest- Kids Cancer Foundation Benefit.

Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats are going!

This is one of our favorite charity events!

Do some good, go!

from unclegarysrockandribsfest.com
What started out as a family get together has turned into a great community event. 13 years ago, Uncle Gary lost his 3 year old daughter, Ashley, to cancer. A couple of years later, he started a BBQ event in her honor. After realizing the outreach he had received from friends and family alike, Uncle Gary decided it was time to grow the event, and dedicate his event proceeds to “Kids Cancer Foundation” in Royal Palm Beach. Uncle Gary’s Rock and Rib Fest now includes great live music, bounce houses, kid’s Fun-zone, grab bags, raffles, face painting, playgrounds and so much more!

The “Kids Cancer Foundation” was Founded by Michelle O’Boyle RN, CPON, and is located in Royal Palm Beach FL, providing support services to over 300+ children with cancer. Visit their website at: http://www.kidscancersf.org

Located this year at the Wellington Amphitheater, located at 12100 Forest Hill Blvd. Wellington, FL. This facility has a beautiful playground area for the kids with fencing all around for their protection. I will have volunteers all day to watch them. There will be face-painting and balloon artists there from 3-7 to entertain the children.

For the adults there will be a parking lot full of vendors to enjoy and we will feature three live bands throughout the day. BAND#1: (3:00-4:00) Juna & Joey “Juna and Joey are sister and brother that are both incredibly talented musicians and singers”- BAND#2: (4:30-6:00) 56 ACE “Country-Rock-Dance” – BAND#3: (7:30-9:00) True Rumours “The Definitive Fleetwood Mac Show”…

There will be fun and excitement throughout the day for all.

Got a real good “mom & pop” cowboy/rodeo themed decor- flat top grill- table/booth/counter seating- open 7 days a week 6:30am-8pm diner for you guys- Rodeo Diner in Kissimmee.

Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats did a recent Rodeo Diner breakfast and the joint acquitted😜 itself quite nicely! Hey, Brooklyn born and bred Jeff Eats may not know how to ride a horse or lasso a goat-or whatever🤓, but I do know when a joint cranks-out real good western omelettes, hash browns, French toast, sausages, biscuits and gravy, grits!

F

Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats really enjoyed the Rodeo Diner. For sure, no re-invention of the wheel there- just real good reasonably priced food, pleasant service and coffee cups that were never empty!
