A recent e-mail received by Jeff Eats.

Jeff,

How do you hear about and keep track of various events, concerts, festivals, shows, etc. in South Florida? How do you decide which ones to tell your readers about?

Tanya,

Good questions!

No bs- here, on average Jeff Eats receives 20-25 e-mails a day from Florida “venues.” Throw in visiting a ton of internet sites- and Jeff Eats has a pretty good idea as to what’s playing and what’s coming up!

As to “which ones” I tell you guys about, let’s just say I got a pretty good “feel” as to what most of Jeff Eats’ readers (known as an audience) are into- for example, I know from your past Jeff Eats’ “comments” that you love Oldies & 60’s Rock n Roll shows!

Printed down below is an “example” of the type of e-mails I receive from Florida venues.

Thanks for reading…

* Stardust Memories: The David Bowie Tribute.

Complimentary Show
Stardust Memories: The David Bowie Tribute
Mizner Park Amphitheater
Friday, July 22, 2016 (7:30pm)

Should be an interesting evening “watching” something like 4,000 people on blankets and lawn chairs- not know the words to the music they are listening to!

Just between you guys and Jeff Eats, acts like David Bowie- or for that matter Prince are/were “cult” figures with very limited General Public followings …Don’t believe Jeff Eats?- Then do me a favor and name 3 songs that Prince sang and 3 songs that David Bowie sang, go ahead, I’ll wait- while you’re working on those song lists- before their respective deaths, did you ever hear about or ever see a Prince or Bowie tribute band/act? Beatles, Billy Joel, Rolling Stones, Eagles’ tributes-a dime a dozen, Bowie and Prince- most of you guys probably have never heard of one, no less seen one!

Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats have seen Stardust Memories: The David Bowie Tribute and the band puts on a real solid show…

The point of the above rant- you guys definitely should checkout Stardust Memories: The David Bowie Tribute- as it will literally expose most of you for the first time-to the brilliant, creative and incredibly inventive music that David Bowie brought to this world!

Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats are gonna be there, hopefully we’ll see some of you guys at the Mizner Park Amphitheater on the 22nd!

* Census Time.

Just curious, how many of you guys remember when gum machines like these were on New York City Subway platforms?

***** DISH OF THE WEEK (Sunday- 7/17/16).

One of Jeff Eats favorite menu items…

THE ORIGINAL CHICAGO PIZZA
11″ $22.99

Manhattan and Chicago Pizzeria
12715 South Dixie Highway
Pinecrest
(786) 581-9240

Latest Review: 4/3/16

This joint’s deep dish Chicago pizza is off the shelf delicious!

Handful of tables inside and outside, so don’t be planning no 350-person black-tie wedding or nothing!

Just between you guys and Jeff Eats, I picked The Original Chicago Pizza just-to get the conversation going! Trust me, you wouldn’t kick Manhattan and Chicago Pizzeria’s – New York Pizza, subs, wings out of bed either!

***** DISH OF THE WEEK (Sunday- 4/13/16)

THE ORIGINAL CHICAGO PIZZA (8″)

Latest Review: 7/9/13

Manhattan and Chicago Pizzeria makes outrageously delicious Chicago deep dish pizza. The joint’s New York Style pizza and subs ain’t no slouches either.

Just so you know, Manhattan and Chicago Pizzeria is basically a “takeout” so don’t- be planning on throwing a wedding party, graduation party or bar mitzvah party there!

Manhattan and Chicago Pizzeria (Pinecrest)
Posted on July 9th, 2013

***** Manhattan and Chicago Pizzeria, 12715 South Dixie Highway, Pinecrest, Florida 33156, (786) 581-9240.

Don’t plan on eating at Manhattan and Chicago Pizzeria…for sure its got three tables outside, but that’s about it…

This “hole in the wall” pizza joint does—pizzas, subs. wings, wraps, salads, calzones and strombolis.

Jeff Eats is kinda thinking that you guys by now- have figured out-that…Manhattan and Chicago Pizzeria makes 2-kinds of pizza—namely, Chicago Deep Dish and New York Style. The reason I say this- is that the joint after-all is named Manhattan and Chicago Pizzeria. Now I could be wrong, but Jeff Eats’ money is on you guys!

A recent outing had me taking-out an 8″ “original” Chicago pizza ($13.99–ground beef & sausage/tomato sauce/mozzarella cheese) and a 12″ plain New York pizza ($8.99) and I gotta tell you that both were delicious. For our purposes- that Chicago pizza was amazing-delicious. Jeff Eats also did a meatball sub ($7.99) and a sausage & peppers sub ($7.99)- like the pizzas, delicious.

As I mentioned 4 1/2 seconds ago, Manhattan and Chicago Pizzeria is basically a take-out joint—so if you don’t live or work in the area, have someplace where you can eat its stuff- before it gets cold.

No fooling around here, Manhattan and Chicago Pizzeria is an absolutely dynamite takeout— with that Chicago pizza-alone being worth a car-trip.

Check Manhattan’s menu at www.mcrealpizza.com for menu/prices.

Manhattan and Chicago Pizzeria is open Monday-Thursday 11am-10pm, Friday-Saturday 11am-midnight, Sunday 11am-9pm.

Finally, if any of you are wondering where Jeff Eats “ate” his food since he neither lives or works in the area…

What happens in Pinecrest stays in Pinecrest!

***** Hubert’s Lemonade.

Real simple tale to tell you guys…

Jeff Eats really-really enjoys a tall cold glass of lemonade.

With the above in mind, over the years I’ve tried numerous “brands”- some good, some not so good!

Anyway,

Jeff Eats recently came across Hubert’s Lemonade brand at the Target Store, 21637 Sate Road 7, Boca Raton, Florida 33428, (561) 483-3400 and I gotta tell you, Hubert’s Lemonade Original was absolutely delicious. As you guys know, this food reviewing “bag” is a totally subjective deal- what I find too sweet, you might find too bitter, so forth and so on! Not that it really matters, but Jeff Eats’ tastebuds sensed a real “nice” tart fresh lemon flavor rather than “the” sugary taste that many brands feature!

In South Florida – you can find Hubert’s Lemonade at retailers- Target Store, Whole Foods Market and The Fresh Market. Just so you know, Target’s price- 12 16oz glass bottle pack-$18! For you online shoppers, amazon.com has a plethora😏 of vendors with prices all over the proverbial bargain map!
