***** Cucina Pizza By Design, 1855 Palm Beach Lakes Boulevard, West Palm Beach, Florida 33401, (561) 686-5060.

Jeff Eats is kinda thinking that just- maybe you guys have seen the basic “concept” elsewhere…you build (design) your own pizzas and salads! Then the stuff is delivered to your table! The keys for the “game” to work- 1. Top quality/numerous ingredients, 2. Easy to order system, 3. Fast table delivery of those wood-fired pizzas, salads and other stuff, 4. Reasonable prices.

Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats recently did lunch- pizzas and salads! Trust me when I tell you, the folks owning/running this joint got the game-figured out just right!

Let me wrap this one up for you guys- Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats loved Cucina Pizza By Design. Not exactly sure as to who gets the credit- Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats (hey! We did “design” the pizzas and salads) or Cucina Pizza By Design for the delicious pizzas/salads delivered- but, in any case- the stuff was really good!

You can check menu/prices/info at cucinapizza.com.

Pizza By Design is open Monday- Saturday 10am-10pm, closed Sunday.

* Bobby Valli sings Frankie Valli.

It usually doesn’t work-out this way with siblings- but in this “case” Bobby Valli Frankie’s younger brother, sounds just like his older brother does!

Jeff Eats has seen Bobby Valli twice, the man puts on a great show! Trust Jeff Eats on this one, I’ve watched a load of Valli “tribute” artists- Bobby Valli is as “close” to the real-deal as can be!

For you guys not familiar with Fishtales- real good full bar/indoor/outdoor patio seating restaurant that serves-up reasonably priced real good American Style stuff…the joint’s kicker, live music and entertainment 7 nights a week! Trust Jeff Eats on this one, Fishtales is a real good-fun-casual joint, featuring top local Rock N Roll bands, doo wop groups, tribute shows, comedians, national celebrity headliner acts! Over the years, Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats have eaten at Fishtales a number of times- and like I just said, reasonably priced real good American Style stuff!

The way Jeff Eats sees it, some winners and some losers!

***** Dyan’s Country Kitchen, 9100 Wiles Road, Coral Springs, Florida 33067, (954) 755-7590.

For our purposes we’re gonna call Dyan’s Country Kitchen “an out of sight out of mind” diner joint!

Simple tale to tell, Jeff Eats first told you guys about Dyan’s way-back on January 20, 2009- hadn’t been back until yesterday when Jeff Eats, Mrs. Jeff Eats, Daughter Jeff Eats and Son Jeff Eats did-lunch!

Just between you guys and Jeff Eats, there is no way that I should have let this joint slip through the cracks as it’s only a 30 minute drive from my Boca Raton home- as they say, sh@t happens!

Like I said a couple of seconds ago, a simple tale to tell…delicious reasonably priced- chicken salad on toasted rye, tuna salad on toasted et-bagel, bacon cheeseburger, corned beef on rye, French fries, potato knish, potato pancake, tomato salad, sweet potato fries, chopped liver on toasted onion bagel!

One of Jeff Eats’ favorite menu items…

CHICKEN POT PIE

Latest Review: 5/4/2015

Real simple tale, this joint makes a real delicious chicken pot pie. Kinda hard pressed to recall a South Florida-British pub that makes a better one. By the way, while we are on the subject of “chicken”- the joint’s wings kill!

If your into British pubs, the Ye Olde Falcon Pub will definitely work for you!

Posted 5/4/2015
***** Ye Olde Falcon Pub, 2867 South University Drive, Davie, Florida 33328, (954) 424-0300.

Got a good British Pub for you guys…Ye Olde Falcon Pub in Davie.

First things first, the joint looks exactly as you expect it to…dark wood, big bar, more dark wood, tvs, handful of arcade games, darts, booth and table seating…this one also has outdoor patio seating.

Ye Olde’s menu- a combination of British and American stuff…plenty of appetizers, soups, salads, burgers, sandwiches, wings, entrees, desserts- trust me, everyone in your party will find what to eat! The joint also has beers up the whazoo- 48 on tap and 14 bottles…so if you like beer, you’re set!

Since this is after-all a British Pub…

A recent dinner had Jeff Eats, Mrs. Jeff Eats and another couple “trying”- fish & chips, bangers & mash, shepard’s pie, chicken pot pie and I gotta tell you everything was A-OK! If I had to do a pecking order, which I don’t have to, but I will- Jeff Eats loved the fish & chips ($12.99) and chicken pot pie ($9.95), the bangers & mash ($11.79) and shepard’s pie ($10.99) were decent enough, but personally-I wouldn’t be jumping at a second chance to order them again!

On the American side of the ledger, the philly steak & cheese sub ($10.99) and popcorn chicken ($9.79) that we threw into the meal-mix were right on the money! Just between you and Jeff Eats, the sub (Ye Olde calls it a hoagie-whatever!) absolutely killed- and if you “go” is a must-order.

Jeff Eats really enjoyed-Ye Olde Falcon Pub. Good food, terrific beer selection, very pleasant service, reasonable prices, plenty of dark wood!

You guys can check menu/prices/info at yeoldefalconpub.com.

Ye Olde Falcon Pub is open Sunday noon-4am, Monday-Saturday 11am-4am

* B-Side Jones.

Jeff Eats recently caught Delray Beach based…B-Side Jones and loved the “funk” these guys push-out!

B-Side Jones plays the Seminole Casino Coconut Creek’s Nectar Lounge, Friday, January 29, 2016 – 8:00 PM! The show is complimentary!

Trust Jeff Eats when I tell you, B-Side Jones is a good one!

You can check the band out at bsidejones.com

Trust Jeff Eats on this one, I’ve seen the show- and you’ll swear that Michael Jackson is on that stage!

***** Waffle House, 2580 Davie Road, Davie, Florida 33317, (954) 792-8150

Let the truth be told, Waffle House is one of Jeff Eats favorite joints to eat breakfast, lunch and dinner at! There I said it! I am a gigantic fan of this 2,100 unit 24/7 American “diner” chain which has been around since 1955. Over the years, Jeff Eats has eaten in Waffle Houses literally all over the place- yesterday, I did breakfast at the Waffle House located at 2580 Davie Road, in Davie.

Now you guys and Jeff Eats both know that this food “reviewing thing” is purely a subjective exercise- what I like you may hate and vice versa! That said, I challenge you guys to eat the Waffle House’s- hasbrowns smothered in sautéed onions/covered with melted American cheese and smoked hickory ham chunks- pecan waffles- Texas Angus Patty Melt- grilled biscuits & sausage gravy and then honestly tell Jeff Eats that “it” wasn’t like dying and going to heaven (I know, a bit dramatic!)!
