* Don’t Be A Pinhead.
Fan or no fan of FOX-NEWS…
Jeff Eats can’t think of even one single reason to buy a ticket to see Bill O’Reilly and Dennis Miller!
You on the other hand may see things differently, so…
*****. Di Fara Pizza, 1424 Avenue J, Brooklyn, New York 11230, (718) 258-1367, Difara.com.
A recent e-mail…
Jeff,
Who makes the best NY pizza?
Thanks,
Leon Horowitz (Margate)

Leon Horowitz:
Now, you guys know that everything in life is basically a subjective call…
Keeping the above in mind, let Jeff Eats settle “this” once and for all-
Di Fara Pizza in Brooklyn- makes the best New York Pizza!
No bs-ing here, the best!
Jeff Eats “had” his first Di Fara slice in September, 1966.
Now you know.
Thanks for reading…

Just another way- of looking at things!
Sort of like food reviews!
***** Love Boat Ice Cream, 16229 San Carlos Boulevard, Fort Myers, Florida 33908, (239) 466-7707.
Got something terrific for you guys…Love Boat Ice Cream in Fort Myers.
Real simple story here, the joint opened in 1957, makes its own ice cream and “carries” over 50 flavors on any given day.
A recent outing had Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats “trying” jamocha almond fudge, chocolate chip, French vanilla, strawberry, pistachio, coffee and I gotta tell you- every flavor was dynamite! No fooling here, even if I wanted to, I couldn’t pick one flavor over another-all were that good!
For those of you who maybe be wondering, the joint also has sugar free ice cream, sorbet and yogurt…so everybody will find what to eat (lick)!
Just so you know, a handful of tables inside and a couple of benches outside- so don’t be planning your high school class reunion there, unless you were schooled at something like Appalachia High School!
No ifs ands or buts, Love Boat Ice Cream is an absolute homerun.
One final thought, if you are an indecisive type of person, Love Boat Ice Cream could prove to be a real troublesome-outing for you- so come prepared!
You can check menu/prices/info at loveboaticecream.net.
Love Boat Ice Cream is open 7 days a week from noon-10pm and no Gavin MacLeod doesn’t own or work there!

* Silverspot Cinema.
Just wanted to mention to you guys that this coming Friday-May 15th a new movie-complex is opening at the Promenade of Coconut Creek located at the intersection of Lyons Road and Wiles Road in Coconut Creek.
For those of you who may not be familiar with the Promenade of Coconut Creek-for our purposes, let’s call it the- Poster Child For Florida’s Disastrous Mega Shopping Centers!
Now- it’s just Jeff Eats’ opinion- but this center has to be ranked as one of Florida’s biggest white elephants! An absolute Ghost Town! No fooling here, other than for a small handful of restaurants- there are literally no stores that warrant a person making a trip to this outdoor mega center! Don’t believe Jeff Eats?- down below is the center’s tenant roster…see what you think.
If I was a betting man, my money would say that the “movies” will have little to no effect- turning the Promenade of Coconut Creek into a viable retail center.
Anyway,
Crap center or no crap center, you guys now know about a brand new movie complex that sounds like it’s gonna be a top-shelf operation!
From silverspot.net
Coming early 2015, the Promenade at Coconut Creek will be home to the Silverspot Cinema. Silverspot will operate an 11-screen luxury theater featuring a combination of first-run blockbuster, 3-D, and concerts, as well as foreign and independent films, presented with state of the art projection and sound technology. Each theater has hand-stitched leather stadium style seating, as well as a high-end restaurant, bar and lounge where theatergoers can enjoy “dinner and a movie” in one place.

***** Godfather Authentic Subs, 241 Northeast 21st Avenue, Deerfield Beach, Florida 33441, (754) 212-4622.
Got a real good sub joint for you guys- Godfather Authentic Subs in Deerfield Beach.
Real simple concept going on here…maybe 10 seats inside, handful of tables outside, hot/cold subs-couple of salads-breakfast items, order/pickup at the counter.
The real beautiful thing about this joint, besides making delicious subs- is that Godfather is located right across the street from the BEACH…great people watching and if it’s your game, plenty of park benches to eat those subs on (or is at?)!
Now, just between you guys and Jeff Eats, I think that the name Godfather Authentic Subs is kinda “tired”…nothing original going on there and naming sandwiches- Michael, Sonny, Joey Zasa, Barzini so on and so forth, in my book is lame, but hey!-I don’t own the joint! No fooling here, but I seriously doubt that 90% of Americans under 25 even know who Marlon Brando was or who James Cann is!
Let’s talk food.
A recent Saturday-afternoon outing had Jeff Eats “trying”- a Don Corleone, a Sonny, a Joey Zasa and a Connie and I gotta tell you, all of the subs were right on the money! Just so you know, the Don Corleone alone, was worth-driving around for 22 minutes looking for a freaking parking spot! Hey! Season is now over- so parking shouldn’t be an issue at least until next Fall! Anyway, Godfather for my taste-is using a nice crisp seeded sub roll, top shelf-fillings and gives you a nice size sandwich for the money. For those of you wondering… What the hell a Don Corleone, a Sonny, a Joey Zasa and a Connie are?- Godfather’s menu is printed down-below.
Let me wrap this up by saying, that if Sonny “had had”” a SunPass, he would probably still be with us today…and Jeff Eats will definitely be back to try a Rocco, a Fredo and a Luca Brasi.
You can check menu/prices/info at godfatherssubs.com.
Godfather Authentic Subs is open 7 days a week 8am-Late.

Go see comedian-magician Justin Willman…
Guaranteed- you will leave the IMPOV with a smile on your face, without a clue as to how he pulled the tricks off!*

* Just between you guys and Jeff Eats, I got the boy’s “flying table” figured out- think magnets and steel and you’ll be on the right page! As for the other 92,692 tricks Willman does-not a freaking clue!
***** DISH OF THE WEEK (Sunday- 5/10/15).
One of Jeff Eats’ favorite menu items…
EVERYTHING
Candy Kitchen
13711 Gulf Boulevard,
Maderia Beach
(727) 392-6803.
Latest Review: 3/23/14
Real simple, Jeff Eats loves this joint.
No b-sing, can’t think of one single item that Candy Kitchen “serves-up” that’s not good!
Let’s get real, the joint has been making its own ice cream, fudge and Italian ice- since 1950! Could it be, that just maybe- Candy Kitchen knows what it’s doing?
Printed down below is the original 3/23/14 tale…

***** Candy Kitchen, 13711 Gulf Boulevard, Maderia Beach, Florida 33708, (727) 392-6803.
Before we-talk on this one… you should know- that geography isn’t exactly Jeff Eats’ “strong suit.” For the record, I know that Maderia Beach “isn’t” in South Florida…that said-Candy Kitchen in Maderia Beach is an ice cream/candy store that you-gotta know about.
Real simple concept…a small freestanding joint that makes its own ice cream, fudge, Italian ices–and literally stocks every nostaligic-candy that you can “remember”…order/pickup at counter, a couple of outdoor benches for seating.
I’m gonna make this short and sweet (pun intended)..the ice cream, fudge, ices blew me away. The candy selection was off the chart–when was the last time that you saw all-kinds of Pez (you do remember Pez Candy don’t you?) dispensers/refills?
Here’s a suggestion…go check Yelp and TripAdvisor-reviews for Candy Ktchen…I’m thinking that their reader-comments are pretty legit for this joint…you’ll also find a bunch of photos—with one or two exceptions–people raved about Candy Kitchen.
If you live in Maderia Beach or close-by…you probably already know about Candy Kitchen…for the “rest” of you guys–Candy Kitchen is a MUST TRY–if/when you are in the Maderia Beach area.
Candy Kitchen is open 7 days a week
