Latest Review: 3/14/22

When you guys eat in this joint, you’ll swear that it’s 1957 and that you’re back in Brooklyn!(Please feel free to change location that works for you).

If Taste of Hong Kong Chinese Restaurant was a whole lot closer to Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats’ Boca Raton abode, we definitely would be real steady customers!

***** Taste of Hong Kong Chinese Restaurant, 2224 Gulf Gate Drive, Sarasota, Florida 34231, (941) 922-6765.

Got a real good Chinese/Thai joint for you guys to checkout, Taste of Hong Kong Chinese Restaurant in Sarasota.

Simple tale to tell, yesterday, Jeff Eats, Mrs. Jeff Eats and our friends Ellen and Marc “discovered” Taste of Hong Kong Chinese Restaurant and I gotta tell you that- the joint’s food was absolutely delicious! Booth/table seating, reasonably priced- full boat of Jewish American Brooklyn circa 1957 Chinese food/handful of Thai ‘specials’ menu, open Monday- Saturday 11:30am-10pm/ Sunday 4:30pm/9pm.

Let me wrap-up Hong Kong Chinese Restaurant by saying, that if the joint was in Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats’ Boca Raton neighborhood- we definitely would be real steady customers! Ditto- for Ellen and Marc who also live in Boca Raton!

***** Pickle Barrel Deli & Delicatessen, 133 East Hillsboro Boulevard, Deerfield Beach, Florida 33441 (954) 427-0650.

I am now going to give you the name of one of South Florida’s great “order at the counter delis”…Pickle Barrel. This joint has been around since 1974 and makes some of the most delicious deli sandwiches and salads that you have ever tasted. Take a look at Pickle’s website at www.picklebarrelfl.com for menu/prices.

I am telling you…the food at this joint is absolutely amazing. The corned beef, pastrami, turkey and tuna-shrimp-chicken salads are about as good as it gets…throw in your choice from 6 breads, 12 condiments and 5 cheeses and this joint can whip-up some heavy-duty combination sandwiches. As for prices, although Pickle Barrel is located right next-door to a pawn shop, you won’t have to go into hock for this joint’s sandwiches or salads… Pickel’s prices are in-line with your favorite neighborhood sub shop’s menu.

Pickle Barrel is open Monday-Friday 9am-6pm, Saturday 9am-5pm and Sunday 9:30am-4:30pm.

* Humor!

An elderly man rear-ended a guy driving an expensive European sports car. Enraged, the guy hops out and confronts the old man. He yells,

“Look what you did to my car! You’re going to give me $10,000 right now or I’m going to beat you to a pulp!”

“Oh my…” the old man said nervously. “I don’t have that kind of money. Let me call my son.” he said with hope. “He trains dolphins and he will know what to do.”

“Dolphins!” the other driver huffed, while rolling his eyes.

The old man pulled out his phone, dialed his son, and just as his son answered, the irate man snatched the phone away from the old man.

“So, YOU’RE a dolphin trainer, huh?” The irate man yelled, “Well, your old man here just rear-ended my car and I need TEN GRAND right now, or I’m going to beat you AND your old man to a pulp!”

“I’ll be there in 10 minutes.” says the voice calmly on the other end.

Exactly 10 minutes later, a Jeep pulls up and a guy hops out and proceeds to pulverize the bully, leaving him in a heap on the side of the road. When he finished, he walked over to his father and said,

“For the last time dad, I train Seals… Navy Seals. NOT dolphins!”
