***** Pink Buddha Chinese Restaurant, 5949 South University Drive, Davie, Florida 33328, (954) 680-3388.

Pink Buddha Chinese Restaurant…”mom & pop” joint loacted in Davie, Florida.

Brooklyn-Jewish Taste Test circa 1959—wonton soup, egg rolls, roast pork fried rice, bbq ribs, fried dumplings, sweet & sour pork, mu shu pork, general tso’s chicken—let me make this one short and simple, everything was delicious. Especially enjoyed the ribs and general tso’s chicken.

Pink Buddha has been around for something like 15 years and as “expected” is located in a bombed-out strip shopping center.

You can check menu/prices at www.pinkbuddhachinese.com.

Pink Buddha is right up there with the best “mom & pop” Chinese joints that I’ve tried down here in sunny South Florida.

Pink Buddha is open Monday-Thursday 11am-10pm, Friday-Sunday 11am-10:30pm.

ABC Chinese Restaurant

***** ABC Chinese Restaurant, 1919 West Hillsboro Boulevard, Deerfield Beach, Florida (954) 421-8720.

Not bad, not bad at all.

Neighborhood joint, that has real-decent food…You know the drill…soup, appetizer, entree, rice, dessert…for something like $7.99.

ABC passed last week’s “taste test” of wonton soup, fried rice, egg roll, bbq spare ribs and General Tso’s Chicken. I have been eating in this joint for years- and haven’t had even one bad meal. Very nice people run ABC. By the way, ABC is located in the back of a strip-center, so you really have to look for it.

Open 7 days a week for lunch and dinner.

Look!

Jeff Eats is a simple (left myself open there, didn’t I?) guy-who was born in Brooklyn in 1949. I was raised on “American” Chinese food…you know- wonton soup, bbq ribs, steamed dumplings, roast pork fried rice, egg rolls, sweet & sour pork, General Tso’s chicken, pepper steak, chicken chow mein, shrimp in lobster sauce with a drop of black bean sauce mixed in, pineapple chunks, vanilla/strawberry/chocolate/pistachio ice cream, fortune cookies. Like I said, I’m a simple guy!

Long story short,

I got friends-my age- who were born in Brooklyn, who for some reason think that- the “American” Chinese food we all grew up on-is now beneath them…when they eat Chinese, they have to have- REAL CHINESE stuff like…pepper salted quail, lambchoy minced with green bean, spicy fish with tofu, yam in sour sauce.

Being a pretty easy going guy, Jeff Eats is willing to try almost any restaurant “recommended” by friends to “accommodate” friends.

With the above in mind, Jeff Eats, Mrs. Jeff Eats and three “former” Brooklyn couples recently- did Wei’s Long Gong Chinese. Real simple- the wonton soup, egg rolls, steamed dumplings, General Tso’s chicken, roast pork fried rice, shrimp in lobster sauce with a drop of black bean sauce mixed in- were all delicious. I have absolutely no idea how the pepper salted quail, lambchoy minced with green bean, spicy fish with tofu, yam in sour sauce- tasted…but Jeff Eats’ Brooklyn friends said to tell you, these dishes were terrific. By the way, the pineapple chunks and the fortune cookies-were, pineapple chunks and fortune cookies!

Trust Jeff Eats with this one, Wei’s Long Gong Chinese’s “American” Chinese food is very-very good…if this joint was in my neighborhood, I’d be a real steady customer. Just a gut call, but I’m thinking that you guys who like REAL CHINESE FOOD will also- really enjoy Wei’s Long Gong Chinese.

You can check menu/prices at weislonggong.com.

Wei’s is open Sunday, Monday, Wednesday, Thursday 11:30am-9:30pm, Friday 11:30am-10pm, Saturday 11:30am-11pm, closed on Tuesday.

* The Dot Explained!

If you’re “into” political correctness, you need not read further!

For centuries, Hindu women have worn a dot on their foreheads. Most of us have naively thought this was connected with tradition or religion, but the Indian embassy in Ottawa has recently revealed the true story.

When a Hindu woman gets married, she brings a dowry into the union. On her wedding night, the husband scratches off the dot to see whether he has won a convenience store, a gas station, a donut shop, a taxi cab, a yogurt store or a motel in the United States. If nothing is there, he must remain in India- call himself Andy and answer telephones providing us with Verizon technical support.

***** Rock That Burger, 7138 Southwest 117 Avenue, Miami, Florida 33183, (305) 279-2110.

Jeff Eats, Mrs. Jeff Eats and a couple of friends did a recent dinner- and we all got real scared! Amazingly-delicious flat top grilled burgers and hot dogs, french fries, onion rings, milk shakes, other stuff…not to mention Classic Rock music as background ambiance!

***** ROK:BRGR, 208 Southwest 2nd Street, Fort Lauderdale, Florida 33301, (954) 525-7656.

Let me start by saying, that I loved ROK:BRGR—an upscale hamburger joint, which opened about six weeks ago in Fort Lauderdale. I suspect, that Only- seriously committed vegetarians are gonna have a problem with this joint. Check www.rockbrgr.com for menu/prices/pictures.

Just so you know, BURGERS are the primary game at this cool looking- 1920’s brick pub decor/full bar joint. That said, ROK also has a “nice” handful of comfort items like mac ‘n cheese, chili, meatloaf, blts and a few salads, so no-one in your party is gonna be pissed off.

My 10 oz. bacon cheeseburger with hand cut french fries ($10) was absolutely off the chart. Same, for the mac ‘n cheese ($8)–sweet potato fries ($5)–onion rings ($6)–meatloaf ($14) that I “sampled.”

I am telling you, the food was delicious. ROK has a real cool look, reasonable prices and the service is as pleasant as can be.

To sum it up, WINNER!!!

ROK is open Sunday-Thursday 11:30 am-2am and Friday-Saturday 11:30am-4am.

***** The Burning Oak BBQ, 8006 West Mcnab Road, North Lauderdale, Florida 33068, (954) 933-1944.

Got a real good fast food order/pickup at the counter/drive-thru bbq joint for you guys- The Burning Oak BBQ in North Lauderdale.

Long story short, based on a recent Jeff Eats’ lunch with 4- buddies, the 6-month old Oakster appears to be cranking out some heavy duty- reasonably priced- delicious smoked bbq stuff!

Just so we are straight with each other, my buddy Ray picked-up the check…and Jeff Eats has always found without fail, that “free” restaurant food always seems to taste real-good! Putting the “free” aside, I gotta tell you that The Burning Oak BBQ’s- St. Louis Ribs, bbq chicken, pulled pork, mac and cheese, corn bread, French fries, baked beans, collard greens were all delicious!

Free food or no free food, Jeff Eats really enjoyed The Burning Oak BBQ- which is open Sunday-Thursday 11am-9pm, Friday-Saturday 11am-10pm.

Simple tale to tell, Broadway Bagels makes absolutely dynamite bagels! That said, yesterday morning’s banana French toast – definitely deserved this Shout-Out!

Broadway Bagels (Plantation)
Posted on April 1st, 2015

***** Broadway Bagels, 10085 Cleary Boulevard, Plantation, Florida 33324, (954) 424-3905.

Got a good bagel joint for you guys…Broadway Bagels in Plantation which has been around for something like 33 years.

Jeff Eats and a couple of buddies recently ate breakfast there- and I gotta tell you that Broadway Bagels’ deli omelette ($7.99-corned beef/pastrami/Swiss cheese), blueberry pancakes ($6.99) and corned beef hash ($7.99) were all-right on the money! Throw in REAL GOOD sesame, everything and onion bagels- and Jeff Eats would definitely do a second-visit! Just so we are straight with each other, Broadway Bagels isn’t curing cancer or nothing here- the food is good-with its bagels (made the right way- hand rolled/boiled/baked) being the real “keeper” of this tale!-so if you go, BAGELS!

You can check menu/prices at broadwaybagelsflorida.com

Broadway Bagels is open 7 days a week 6:30am-3pm.

* A Recent Starbucks Conversation: Are You A Pilot? I Thought I Was…

You think you have lived to be 80 plus and know who you are, then along comes someone and blows it all to hell!

An old Marine Pilot sat down at the Starbucks, still wearing his old USMC flight jacket and ordered a cup of coffee.

As he sat sipping his coffee, a young woman sat down next to him. She turned to the pilot and asked,
Are you a real pilot?

He replied, ‘Well, I’ve spent my whole life flying planes, first Stearmans, then the early Grummans… flew a Wildcat and Corsair in WWII, and later in the Korean conflict, Banshees and Cougars. I’ve taught more than 260 people to fly and given rides to hundreds, so I guess I am a pilot, and you, what are you?

She said, ‘I’m a lesbian. I spend my whole day thinking about naked women. As soon as I get up in the morning, I think about naked women. When I shower, I think about naked women. When I watch TV, I think about naked women. It seems everything makes me think of naked women.’

The two sat sipping in silence.

A little while later, a young man sat down on the other side of the old pilot and asked:
“Are you a real pilot?”

He replied, ‘I always thought I was, but I just found out I’m a lesbian.’
