***** 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!

This “one” caught Jeff Eats’ eye 👁…

The question- What exactly constitutes a “nice” lunch?

For Jeff Eats it’s- 2 slices, a large Coke, large DQ Blizzard (chocolate soft serve/Heath Bar)!

***** Hold My Knots, 353 West, 14th Street (Gansevoort Market), New York, New York 10014.

Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats recently tried Hold My Knots- which opened in the Gansevoort Market in mid-December, 2016!

In a nutshell, all kinds of garlic knot “sliders”…

Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats loved the food!

Jeff Eats thought that you guys might enjoy “seeing” the latest “fast food” concept that just-maybe headed to sunny Florida in the coming months!

Just between us, Jeff Eats really can’t see “garlic knots” as a fast food stand-alone concept as every pizza joint, burger joint, Italian restaurant in the world can “easily” incorporate garlic knots/sliders into their existing menus!

Keep in mind, that Jeff Eats was absolutely positive that Hillary Clinton would wipe Donald Trump out, so…
