The other morning, Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats were in New York City and based on super positive YELP reviews- “tried” Murray’s Bagels’ bagels out!

Trust Jeff Eats on this one, ABSOLUTE GARBAGE! Think white bread and you’ll be on the right page!

You guys and Jeff Eats know that “food reviewing” like most things in life is purely a subjective call, you know- what I find hot, you might find cold, so on and so forth! That said, how so many YELPERS could rate Murray’s Bagels’ bagels so-highly, is an absolute mystery to me!

Jeff Eats will leave it at that, but I am telling you guys ABSOLUTE GARBAGE!

One final thought, this winter when the relatives and friends from New York are “down” here visiting-and telling you how great New York Bagels are- tell them, that Jeff Eats said- they obviously never had bagels from Murray’s Bagels, 500 6th Avenue, New York, New York 10011, (561) 462-2830!

***** Donuts To Go, 1414 West 1St Street, Sanford, Florida 32771, (407) 878-2856.

Trust Jeff Eats on this one, I know my donuts!

With the above in mind, Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats recently “did” donuts at Donuts To Go in Sanford and I gotta tell you, the joint’s donuts are totally off the chart-delicious! Not really into the “ranking game”- but if I was, which I’m not, I’d rank Donuts To Go’s donuts right up there with the best I’ve had here in Florida as well as elsewhere! Donuts To Go also does- a handful of real-good breakfast sandwiches/items!

Let me wrap Donuts To Go up for you guys…no frills donut shop, order-pickup at counter, handful of tables, terrific donuts and delicious breakfast sandwiches/items!

Donuts To Go is open Monday-Friday 6am-6pm, Saturday-Sunday 6am-2pm.

Just between you guys and Jeff Eats, Jeff Eats “hears” a ton of stuff every day…and, I’m hearing a ton of talk about Tony B’s Ristorante & Supper Club which plans to open mid-September, 2016 in Parkland…The chatter is-that the upscale Tony B’s is gonna be an off-the-chart terrific Italian restaurant featuring amazing entertainment! Now you guys and Jeff Eats both know that talk-is-cheap, so we’ll just have to wait and see if owner Tony Brocco – who by the way is one of America’s most successful 50’s-60’s music concert promoters, has assembled a line-up of top shelf chefs, managers and wait-staff to warrant the current favorable buzz!!

Let’s keep a close eye on this Tony B’s situation- tonybsristorante.com.

Long story short, last night (I know I already told you that) Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats ate dinner at red sauce- mom & pop – New York Style Pizza & Restaurant and the joint blew us away! Delicious food, big portions, super pleasant service, very reasonable prices!

Eddie Money burst onto the scene with his double-platinum album on Columbia Records in 1977 spawning the two hits “Baby Hold On” and “Two Tickets to Paradise.” Legendary rock impresario Bill Graham raved, “Eddie has it all…not only can he sing, write, and play; he’s a natural performer.”

Over the course of his storied career, Money sold over 28 million records and amassed over 20 hits with overwhelming success at both Pop and Rock radio including “Shakin’,” “I Think I’m in Love,” “I Wanna Go Back,” “We Should Be Sleeping,” “Walk On Water,” “I’ll Get By,” and his legendary hit with Ronnie Spector, “Take Me Home Tonight”. Money’s songs have appeared in dozens of movies including, television shows and hit video games including “Mall Cop”, the infamous Geico commercial, “Grand Theft Auto”, and “Guitar Hero”.

Mickey Thomas is the owner of the soaring voice that propelled Starship through the decades of the 80’s and 90’s. With his soulful and compelling vocals, Mickey has established himself as one of rock music’s most recognizable stars. Mickey made his mark in 1976 as lead vocalist on the mega-hit “Fooled Around and Fell in Love” with The Elvin Bishop Band.

In 1979, Mickey’s joined Jefferson Starship and his powerful vocals brought a new wave of success. The group was renamed Starship and had an amazing string of hits including “No Way Out,” “We Built This City,” “Sara,” and an Oscar nomination for the #1 hit “Nothing Gonna Stop Us Now,” from the movie Mannequin. Other top hits included “Find Your Way Back,” “Stranger,” “Laying It On the Line” and “It’s Not Over Till It’s Over” which became Major League Baseball’s theme in 1987. Moreover, every Starship album released since 1979 has gone Gold, Platinum, or Multi-Platinum. Mickey’s stellar voice and video charisma on Starship’s video classics have become staples on MTV and VH1. Material covered in Starship’s live performance ranges from Mickey’s tenure with The Elvin Bishop Band and Starship, as well as songs from his two solo albums.

Last night, Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats were in New York City.

Simple tale to tell you guys, last night we had pizza at Joe’s Pizza (on East 14th Street) and the slices were right up there with some of best New York Slices we’ve ever eaten! Hole in the wall/order-pickup at the counter, handful of hi-tops. The joint only sells pizza.

* Father’s Day 2016 & DISH OF THE WEEK.
Just in case you guys are wondering where Son Jeff Eats and Daughter Jeff Eats are taking Jeff Eats for Father’s Day…

For the record, Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats love Bobby Rubino’s…so let’s kill two birds with one stone, Father’s Day Story & Dish Of The Week Story (Dinner For Two $25)!

Happy Father’s Day!

Posted on May 28th, 2013
***** Bobby Rubino’s, 2501 North Federal Highway, Pompano Beach, Florida 33064, (954) 781-7550.

Haven’t really got the time or inclination to tell you Bobby Rubino’s story…suffice it to say, Bobby Rubino use to work for Tony Roma’s which was a South Florida bbq ribs/chicken chain, then Bobby Rubino in 1978 opened his own bbq ribs/chicken joint naming it Bobby Rubino’s—over the years Bobby and Tony were huge competitors each with loads of South Florida locations…not sure on Tony Roma’s dimished numbers—but today, there is only one Bobby Rubino’s location left and it’s-in Pompano Beach, Florida.

Now…

For whatever it’s worth, for something like 30 years—old Jeff Eats has been a huge Bobby Rubino’s fan…delicious sweet sauced ribs/chicken, french fries, onion rings, corn—never empty soda glasses.

Real simple…loads of food at really reasonable prices. If your looking for upscale-gourmet-fancy schmancy this joint ain’t for you. Just so we are straight, the last outpost is kinda on the dated 1970’s looking side–so like Jeff Eats said 2 seconds ago, fancy schmancy is a definite no-no here.

Anyway…

If Bobby Rubino’s sounds like something that might interest you, do yourself a GIGANTIC FAVOR and go to its website www.bobbyrubinos.com—you’ll find menu/prices, you’ll also find a bunch of coupons that will allow you to literally eat like a pig for virtually nothing.

In all fairness to you guys, Jeff Eats in recent years had lost “contact” with Bobby Rubino’s—and it was Rubino’s recent advertisement/coupons in the Sun Sentinel that reunited “us.”

To wrap this one up…my favorite coupon:

DINNER FOR 2 -$20 plus 1 beverage purchase.
Includes:
1 appetizer–onion loaf
2 entrees–full rack babyback ribs or rib/chicken combo
2 sides
1 dessert

Bobby Rubino’s is open 7 days a week for lunch and dinner.

Banquet Cheese-Burger Sliders (Walmart- Delray Beach)

Posted on September 6th, 2016 · American Delray Beach Fast Food · 3 Comments »

Banquet Cheese-Burger Sliders.

Taste test verdict here…first bite had Jeff Eats thinking- “So this is what horse meat tastes like!” But a bite later, Jeff Eats was thinking- “No, this is what cat meat must taste like.” Trust Jeff Eats when I tell you, these sliders are big time bad news!

If you’re a glutton for punishment, or just want to know what horse and/or cat meat must taste like, Jeff Eats bought these Banquet Cheese-Burger Sliders at the Walmart Supercenter, 16205 South Military Trail, Delray Beach, Florida 33484. The twin pack was microwaved for 45 seconds and the pictured Banquet package cost $5.89. You can check banquet.com for retail locations & info.
