***** Dairy Belle Ice Cream, 118 North Federal Highway, Dania, Florida 33004, (954) 920-3330.

Dairy Belle Ice Cream…a Jeff Eats’ “out of sight, out of mind” fast food- soft serve, poutine, guedille, hot dogs, hamburgers, sandwiches joint that you guys absolutely gotta checkout! Just so we are straight with each other, Dairy Belle’s soft serve is real-good, but no better than what Carvel or Dairy Queen serves-up…the real game here is the “food.”

Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats have been eating Dairy Belle’s stuff since 2006. The big problem we-got, Dairy Belle is in Dania and we-live in Boca Raton- not exactly close by, if you know what I mean?

You can check menu/hours/info at dairybelleicecream.com.

Just so you know, Jeff Eats’ is kinda thinking that every “visitor”-from Quebec knows about this joint- so in “Season” don’t be surprised by the lines-when you pull up!

Trust Jeff Eats on this one, you’ll love this joint!

***** Dairy Belle Ice Cream
118 North Federal Highway
Dania, Florida 33004
(954) 920-3330

Dairy Belle is a “one of a kind” joint. Let me explain.

Dairy Belle looks like an “ordinary” free-standing Carvel Ice Cream Store (circa 1960). Hopefully you know what I am talking about. If you don’t, just picture a small building in a parking lot. The building has a glass window (maybe two) where you order and pickup ice-cream from a “guy” who has “soft serve” machines behind him. . Real simple. Now you know what Dairy Belle looks like. One other thing, there is no seating inside, but there are a few “picnic-style benches” outside.

Dairy Belle serves “stuff” like you find at Carvel and Dairy Queen. Good soft-serve stuff etc., but nothing that would warrant anyone “writing home” about it.

Now for the kicker. Dairy Belle is owned/operated by a couple, Gilles and Ritane Grenier, who were born and raised in Quebec. By the way, their daughter, Isabelle also works at the joint.

The Greniers in addition to selling soft-serve ice cream have a few “items” on the menu, that you absolutely-positively-”probably” can’t find anywhere else in a fast-food South Florida joint. If you have been “following” this story (this is where it starts to get interesting), Dairy Belle serves POUTINE and GUEDILLE which are dishes “indegenious” to Quebec. Poutine (I know it sounds like a dirty word) are french fries (crispy/lightly salted ) which are covered in a melted mozzarella-like cheese and brown gravy. As we say in Brooklyn, FUGGETABOUTIT. This poutine “thing” is absolutely delicious. Dairy Belle also has an “Italian version” of poutine, which has the same delicious crispy/lightly salted french fries covered in a melted mozzarella-like cheese “topped” with shredded chicken and peas in a tomato sauce. FUGGETABOUTIT! The other “dish” that Dairy Belle serves is guedille, which is a chopped salad consisting of mayo, lettuce, tomato and onion piled high into a toasted hot-dog bun. This “plain” guedille can be “topped” off with shredded chicken or egg. FUGGEABOUTIT, this guedille “concoction” is another winner.

Dairy Belle is open 7 days a week, Sunday-Thursday 11am-10pm and Friday-Saturday 11am-11pm. This joint is a “one of a kind.” You definitely “got to” try this one. By the way, this joint is located about one-block north on Federal Highway from Jaxson’s Ice Cream Parlor ( see writeup), so if you really want to be a pig, you can load-up on poutine and quedille at Dairy Belle and then eat waffles and ice-cream at Jaxson’s. By the way, just topping off this Quebec “stuff” with some simple soft-serve ice cream wouldn’t be “such a terrible thing either.”

For you guys who don’t “know” Green’s Pharmacy, the joint has been around since 1938 and is a drug store-diner combo! America had tons of these joints during the 1930s-1960s! Trust me on this, today (2015) Green’s Pharmacy is one of but a handful- left…so it’s really kinda cool to see-and eat in! Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats have been eating there for years…Green’s food is dynamite and the retro-feel is really cool!

Green’s Pharmacy (Palm Beach)
Posted on December 27th, 2006 · American Breakfast Palm Beach
***** Green’s Pharmacy
151 North County Road
Palm Beach, Florida 33480
(561) 832-0304
Let me start by saying, THAT YOU HAVE TO TRY GREEN’S PHARMACY.

Green’s Pharmacy has been in business since 1938. If you check the history books, you will find that during the 1920s-1960s America’s landscape was dotted with drugstore-diner combinations (bet you didn’t know that I could sound so poetic). Rather than beating around the bush, Green’s is a “throw-back” in time with the same decor/combination it had when it opened 68 years ago.

Green’s is open 7 days a week for breakfast & lunch, Monday-Friday 7am-4pm, Saturday 7am-3pm & Sunday 7am-2pm.

Just so you know, Green’s is not just a “great photo shoot.” Terrific breakfasts, burgers, sandwiches, salads and ice-cream are the “real attraction” here. Personally, I enjoy “dining” at its 30 seat counter, but its 20 or so tables will allow “you” to spread-out a bit, if that’s your preference.

Green’s is a great place. Just imagine, that after you have eaten a delicious well-done cheeseburger, ketchup-soaked french fries and a chocolate milkshake, you can also buy your choice of Tums, Rolaids, Pepcid Complete, Alka Seltzer or Mylanta to “complete” a perfect meal.

Don’t miss this joint. It is worth a special trip.

Basilico’s is a combination takeout/eat-in “red sauce” Italian joint. You order/pickup at the counter- there are a whole bunch of inside and outside tables. Basilico’s got the full boat- of pizzas, pastas, calzones, salads, stombolis, hot/cold subs, entrees. Trust Jeff Eats on this one, for cheap money you’re gonna eat real good! I singled out the joint’s calzone for special mention, but I’m telling you everything is real good!

Posted on September 29th, 2014 · Fast Food Italian Pizza Subs/Salads Wellington

***** Basilico’s Original Hand-Tossed Pizza, 9140 Forest Hill Boulevard, Wellington, Florida 33411, (561) 333-4949.

Last night, Jeff Eats took-out from red sauce Italian joint
 Basilico’s Original Hand-Tossed Pizza in Wellington. and I gotta tell you, this restaurant makes some really delicious stuff.

Real simple concept, order at the counter/takeout
or the food is delivered to something like 6 inside booths/handful of outside tables. By the way, the restaurant is located in a very quaint cool looking “New England” style strip-center
which also has a Chinese joint, a Dunkin’ Donuts, an ice cream store, a custom cake- making store, a liquor store–you won’t think- you’re in Florida! Real interesting, in addition to ice cream and yogurt-the ice cream store sells fresh orange juice quarts/gallons-candy by the pound, and has a whole area for fresh flowers
the Chinese joint which is basically a takeout has 4 large 6- seat booths-for those who want to eat-in. Like I said 1 second ago, the strip center has a real different feel to it!

Anyway


Jeff Eats “got to” Basilico’s around 6:30pm last night and there was something like 8 guys behind the counter making pizzas etc. and 2 young ladies at the register. In the 25 minutes or so that I waited for my order, every booth inside was taken and I watched numerous pickups and phone orders being taken
I didn’t notice anyone eating outside.

Basilico’s menu is loaded with appetizers, salads, pizzas, pastas, strombolis, calzones, hot/cold subs, entrees. You can check its menu/prices at basilicospizza.com.

Ordered items included large 16″ pizza ($9.99), Chicken parmesan sub ($7.99), sausage & peppers stromboli ($6.79), eggplant parmesan entrĂ©e (pasta side/garlic breadsticks- $10.59) and like I said 3 seconds ago, the stuff was really delicious.

Look!

Jeff Eats has been to his fair share of red sauce Italian joints down here in south Florida and- this Basilico’s joint is a huge winner. The food was really-solid, the prices CHEAP (I believe I’m suppose to say inexpensive or very reasonable)-trust me, Basilico’s gives you a ton of food for cheap-money-and the food isn’t crap quality!

Let me wrap this up for you, if Basilico’s was by my house (which unfortunately it isn’t) Jeff Eats would definitely be a very steady customer.

Basilico’s Original Hand-Tossed Pizza is open 7 days a week

Curmudgeonly widower Nat Dayan (Jonathan Pryce) clings to his way of life as a Kosher bakery shop owner in London’s East End. Understaffed, Nat reluctantly enlists the help of teenager Ayyash (Jerome Holder), who has a secret side gig selling marijuana to help his immigrant mother make ends meet. When Ayyash accidentally drops his stash into the mixing dough, the challah starts flying off the shelves and an unlikely friendship forms between the old Jewish baker and his young Muslim apprentice. Dough is a warmhearted and humorous story about overcoming prejudice and finding redemption in unexpected places!

zinger-s-deli

***** Zinger’s Delicatessen, 7132 Beracasa Way, Boca Raton, Florida 33433, (561) 826-7323.

No more than 34 minutes ago- at the intersection of Yamato Road and Lyons Road in Boca Raton-Jeff Eats saw a gigantic tractor trailer unloading a load of cars-with New York and New Jersey license plates. To save the owners of those cars- the time and effort of writing Jeff Eats, I am reprinting “Pastrami, Corned Beef, Brisket- My Man!”- which appeared on November 17, 2014.

Now, just between you guys and Jeff Eats, we all know that “food reviewing” is nothing but one huge game! What I like you may hate and vice versa! So with that in mind, I’m gonna tell you, that Jeff Eats considers Zinger’s Delicatessen in Boca Raton to be the best full service NY Kosher Style Deli in-South Florida! For sure, I haven’t been to “every” deli or bagel joint down here- but trust me, I’ve fressed in my fair share-and “I” haven’t found “one” that’s better or as consistent as Zinger’s is! Just so we are straight with each other, Jeff Eats has eaten in a number of other really good South Florida- NY Kosher Style Delis/kosher delis/and bagel joints but if I had to pick just one-to provide food for Jeff Eats’-“Death Row Deli Last Meal” it would be Zinger’s. Now, if for some reason Zinger’s doesn’t work for you (i.e. too far away, too cheap, too expensive, Jeff Eats knows-dick about pastrami/corned beef/brisket), etc.), I got a ton of “stories” on other joints- so nobody here is gonna starve!

***** Pastrami, Corned Beef, Brisket- My Man!

A recent e-mail,

Jeff,
Maybe you can help me out here.
I’m new to the area (Delray Beach).
I’m looking for a place to get great corned beef, pastrami, brisket sandwiches like they serve at Katz’s in NYC. Not interest in the Natioanl Deli garbage that Too Jays and bagel joints serve up.
Would really appreciate some recommendations.
Thanks,
MY MAN
*****
MY MAN:

First, welcome to South Florida.

If you check JEFF EATS-up at the top there is a SEARCH BOX…type in PASTRAMI, or CORNED BEEF, or BRISKET- (you may also want to throw in DELI-for good measure) and it will pull-up for you all of the “columns” that relate to pastrami, corned beef, brisket. If memory and my waistline serve me correctly, you’ll find a load of joints that make some pretty decent stuff.

Just so you know, Jeff Eats’ style isn’t to be in the pecking order business. What I might like, you might not like, so forth and so on! With that in mind, IF I had to pick ONE JOINT-near you- to feed my face with Pastrami, Corned Beef and Brisket it would be ZINGER’S DELICATESSEN in Boca Raton…now, if Zinger’s doesn’t work for you- don’t worry, there are a load of other joints that will fix-you up just fine!

By the way, based on your e-mail, I’m thinking that you’ll soon be “writing” Jeff Eats about good-Chinese joints. So, save the ink…use the same SEARCH BOX for my “picks”-you know, sweet & sour pork, egg rolls, pan fried dumplings, so on and so forth…

Hope this helps you out.

Posted on December 11th, 2015 · Deerfield Beach Italian Pizza · 3 Comments »

This article first appeared on November 24, 2015. Jeff Eats promised you guys that I would “get” to Spadini’s new location and give you an update…long story short, got there last night- and the joint blew me away! Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats “had” Greek salad/calzone/Sicilian pie/garlic knots and everything was absolutely delicious. Trust Jeff Eats when I tell you that Spadini’s is turning out some of the best pizzas, pastas, calzones, red sauce Italian stuff in South Florida. Just so you know, real casual joint- handful of tables for both wait-staff/order at the counter customers. Spadini’s is an absolute must try!

***** Spadini’s Pizzeria, 1645 Southeast 3rd Court- Suite 103, Deerfield Beach Florida 33441, (954) 482-0436.

Here’s a heads-up for you guys…

Spadini’s Pizzeria literally just opened (like 2 days ago) in the Cove Shopping Center in Deerfield Beach.

Long story short, Spadini’s use to be in Boca Raton. Not sure of the details but a “falling-out” with its Boca Raton landlord- resulted in Spadini’s closing its Boca Raton location a few months ago- and moving/building a new pizza joint in Deerfield Beach.

Like I just said, the joint just opened- Jeff Eats hasn’t been there yet! I’m hearing both inside and outside table seating- real-real casual!

I’m thinking that the NEW location is gonna be as good as the OLD location, so I’m thinking that you definitely want to try Spadini’s!

Some of Jeff Eats’ Spadini’s (Boca Raton) write-ups are printed down below.

Trust Jeff Eats when I tell you, unless something very seriously goes wrong (which I seriously doubt)- the NEW- Spadini’s is gonna be serving up some of the best pizzas, pastas, subs, salads and other Italian stuff that you’ve eaten down here in Florida!

Jeff Eats got plans to checkout Spadini’s sometime during the next two weeks, so I’ll report back to you guys!

Not trying to be repetitious or nothing, but do yourself a solid and try this joint- its food is (or should I say, should be?) off the chart neighborhood Brooklyn, Queens, Staten Island, Manhattan, “The” Bronx delicious- and that’s no bs!

You can checkout Spadini’s menu/prices at spadinispizzeria.com.

Spadini’s Pizzeria is open Monday-Thursday 11am-10pm, Friday-Saturday 11am-2am, Sunday noon-8pm.

A year ago today-Jeff Eats told you guys about Spadini’s Pizzeria a terrific pizza-joint which had just “opened” for business in Boca Raton.

One year later, Spadini’s is chugging along doing- both a huge takeout/eat-in business.

Over the past year, Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats must have taken-out at least 15 times and each and every time- the pizza, subs, entrees were all right on the money.

Anyway,

Last night Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats decided to eat-at Spadini’s ordering- a 16″ cheese pizza (Wednesday Special -$8), an eggplant parmigiana entrĂ©e and a veal parmigiana hero. The eggplant and veal stuff were delicious–AND THE PIZZA WAS SIMPLY AMAZING. In talking with owner -Tom Sellick, he advised that a few weeks ago he had replaced his pizzas’ white flour with Japanese breadcrumbs and the pies/slices were getting rave customer reviews. Just so we are straight with one another- white flour, Japanese breadcrumbs “it’s all Rock n Roll to me”- all Jeff Eats can tell you, is that the pizza was awesome.

Let me wrap this up,

You guys gotta try Spadini’s Pizzeria. The subs, pastas, entrees are delicious AND THE PIZZA IS SIMPLY AMAZING!

***** Spadini’s Pizzeria (Boca Raton)

Early this morning, Jeff Eats told you guys about Spadini’s Pizzeria, 134 Northeast 2nd Avenue, Boca Raton, Florida 33432, (561) 826-7420. The jist of that “article” was that Jeff Eats had heard terrific things about this relatively -new pizza joint (it opened in February 2013) and had “plans” to give it a shot in the near future. That original article is down below.

To make a long story short


Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats decided to take food out tonight.

Items ordered
 chopped salad (large $9.50), 16″ plain pizza (Wednesday Night Special $8), chicken parmigiana hero ($9.95), sausage & peppers hero ($8.95), penne alla vodka ($11.95)
and I gotta tell you, everything we had was delicious. A special shoutout to the pizza—let’s just say, that Spadini’s knows how to make a real New York Slice—thin crust, delicious sweet sauce, great tasting mozzarella. By the way, the heroes were big enough to feed two people–and featured a really tasty-lightly toasted bread.

Spadini’s Pizzeria is an absolute “hole in the wall”—a few tables inside and even fewer outside. You order at the counter/you pickup at the counter.

Based on the food that Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats “had”—Spadini’s is right up there with the best “mom & pop” red sauce joints in sunny South Florida.

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

Finally, Spadini’s has a whole bunch of “specials”—like $8- 16″ pizzas on Wednesday and buy 2 heroes and get 1 free on Monday
so “ASK” what “deals” are on the table-before you order
Capice!

*****

Nothing for nothing


Jeff Eats is hearing amazingly-fabulous-incredible “things” about a relatively new Boca Raton pizza joint
Spadini’s Pizzeria.

Just so we are straight with each other, Jeff Eats hasn’t gotten to the joint yet, but at least 7-maybe 11 or maybe it was 13 people (who have eaten there) told me that this “hole-in-the wall” turns out some of the best New York Style pizza/subs/other stuff that they have had- since migrating down here from Brooklyn, New York– Montclair, New Jersey–Hartford, Connecticut– Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania– Cortland, New York–Chicago, Illinois.

Being a top notch “reporter”- this morning Jeff Eats called Spadini’s Pizzeria and spoke to its owner 31 year old Thomas Sellick. Sellick told me that he has lived in South Florida for about a year and prior to coming down- he learned his “craft” working in his family’s Northport, New York (for those who don’t know, that’s part of Long Island) pizza joints. He told me that he opened for business on February 7, 2013—just so you know, Sellick bought out Mizner Plaza Pizza (reviewed 11/28/12), 134 Northeast 2nd Avenue, Boca Raton
 did a drop of cosmetic surgery—and with new recipes and menus in hand re-opened as Spadini’s Pizzeria. Sellick told me that he has the same seating as Mizner Plaza had-that being a handful of tables inside and a handful outside. He also said-the joint works on an “order at the counter/pickup at the counter” system–but if you “want” he or one of his “guys” will bring the food over to your table.

Anyway


Like I said, Jeff Eats is hearing terrific things about Spadini’s Pizzeria. If you get there before I do, I’d apprecaite hearing your thoughts.

You can check Spadini’s website www.spadinispizzeria.com for menu/prices/photos/other stuff.

Spadini’s Pizzeria, 134 Northeast 2nd Avenue, Boca Raton, Florida 33432, (561) 826-7123—is open Monday-Saturday 11am-11pm, Sunday noon-9pm.

The 64,000 Dollar Question:
Are the opinions of the folks from Montclair, Hartford, Pittsburgh, Cortland and Chicago-to be trusted on what consitutes top-notch New York Style pizza? We “know” that the Brooklyn folks are qualified, but-the others?—Jeff Eats is just asking!
