* PGA Pig Out Gourmet Food Truck Expo & Custom Car Show.

Back on August 7, 2014 Jeff Eats told you guys about an up-coming event, PGA Pig Out Gourmet Food Truck Expo & Custom Car Show set for Sunday, August 31, 2014 from noon-4pm. That “article” is reprinted below.

Just wanted you guys to know that Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats will be there.

For what it’s worth, Jeff Eats has been to a number of PGA-events and these-“guys” really know how to run an event. Guaranteed, there will be great food, great music, terrific vendors, great drink, cool cars. Like I just said 1 1/2 seconds ago, PGA knows how to do events “right.”

If you haven’t already got plans- pick up a ticket and as they say “Come On Down” or maybe it’s UP or maybe Sideways in your case–to PGA Pig Out Gourmet Food Truck Expo & Custom Car Show. Just a heads up, check goldstar.com for discount tickets.

Finally, Jeff Eats will be wearing a logoed Jeff Eats black polo shirt. I got no problem-with you coming up to say “hello” unless you are a disgruntled reader, disgruntled restaurant owner, disgruntled band member, serial killer, or mass murderer.

Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats are really looking forward to this ONE!

* And People Thought She Was Just A Dumb Blond!

Just got the following email from long time reader Sheryl M.

Jeff,
And People Thought She Was Just A Dumb Blond!
The lady was really a smart cookie.

* Judy Tenuta.

Can you keep a secret? Jeff Eats has been Judy Tenuta’s “sex slave” since 1987.

The legendary comedian is set for 2-shows at the Mardi Gras Casino Friday, October 24/8pm & Saturday, October 25/8pm. Tickets are 20 bucks and can be purchased online at mardigrascasinofl.com. Just between you and me, Gold Star Events (goldstar.com which was reviewed on 8/26/14) has some $7.50 tickets in its inventory-so if you really want to go…

Printed below is Judy’s “background” info-from the Mardi Gras website.

Jeff Eats is a huge fan-looking forward to seeing her -October 25th.

*****
Judy Tenuta is the most famous person who has ever lived…and if you don’t believe it, just ask her. Judy is a triple threat in the sense that she has strong stage, television, comedy and film credits with a large fan base. She has appeared in” The Vagina Monologues”, “Menopause the Musical” both in LA and Chicago, and she’s had her own stand-up specials on Showtime, HBO and Lifetime. Judy was the first female stand-up comic to win “Best Female Comedian” at the American Comedy Awards and is a two-time Grammy nominee for her comedy CD’S, “Attention Butt-Pirates” and “Lesbetarians!” and “In Goddess We Trust”. That same year, she became the national spokesperson for a series of Diet Dr. Pepper commercials. The self-described “Love Goddess” and “Aphrodite of the Accordion” has made hundreds of guest and co-hosting appearances on such popular TV shows as “The View”, “Late Night with David Letterman”, “Larry King Live”, “Entertainment Tonight”, and “Comics Unleashed”. Judy’s stand-up routine is appropriately described as outrageous, mind-blowing comedy. She recently became an ordained minister, and converts her audiences to her signature religion, “Judyism”. A strong advocate for gays, children and women’s issues, the fun-loving feminist preaches that all women should be worshipped as “Love Goddesses!” Some of Judy’s roles include: an ex-show girl turned wedding chaplain on General Hospital, a snobby judge on “Corey in the House” and a featured role in the teen comedy hit, “Material Girls”, starring Hillary and Haley Duff and directed by Martha Coolidge. Judy also produced and starred in her own film, “Desperation Boulevard” about a former child star who stops at nothing to make a comeback. Judy costars with Bruce Villanch in the Indie film, “Sister Mary”…. so watch out, Meryl Streep!

Judy just completed 2 Independent flims: Judy plays Zania, a menacing, aging actress in the recently screened independent film, “Going Down in LALA Land”. Judy just completed the role of an overly zealous, in your face Mother of the star high school pitcher, in the soon to be released, independent film “Gibsonberg”, based on a true story.

Who here remembers this stuff?

* John Offerdahl’s Broward Health Gridiron Grill-Off Food & Tailgate Festival.

Just a quick observation,

The older Jeff Eats gets, the more-I become just like my Great Uncle Sammy Ginsberg (on my mother’s side)–for some reason, I find myself REPEATING-and- REPEATING and REPEATING things.

With that in mind, back on June 4, 2014 I told you guys about- Gridiron Grill-Off set for November 8, 2014…rather than repeating what I told you back on June 4, 2014- all I can tell you is that this charity event is going to be off-the shelf! Celebrities, Sports Stars, Great Food, Great Music, Great Drink–all I can tell you is that this charity event is going to be off- the shelf!

Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats will be there, will be there, will be there-and you should be there too, and you should be there too!-I know, enough already with the repeating bit! ok-ok-ok.

Finally, you can buy tickets/other info at gridirongriller.com.

June 4, 2014
Just got the first “official” PR piece for John Offerdahl’s “big” annual charity event.

You can read the details below.

If you are/were a Dolphin’s fan and have 85 bucks to spend–you would be “silly” not to go this 1pm-4pm outdoor PARTY!

Jeff Eats has been to past John Offerdahl’s Gridiron Grillers and the food, drink, entertainment–were as good as it gets!

DATE ANNOUNCED FOR “JOHN OFFERDAHL’S BROWARD HEALTH®

GRIDIRON GRILL-OFF FOOD, WINE & TAILGATE FESTIVAL” ON NOVEMBER 8
POMPANO BEACH, FL (June 4, 2014) – “John Offerdahl’s Broward Health® Gridiron Grill-Off Food, Wine & Tailgate Festival” will score big when it returns on Sat., Nov. 8 from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. at the Pompano Beach Amphitheater, 1806 N.E. 6th Street, Pompano Beach. The 5th annual culinary showdown benefitting recognized charities will pair Miami Dolphins legends with top local chefs to prepare signature dishes, plus feature the best in food, wine, music and more.
“We are thrilled to bring this exciting showcase of food and fun to South Florida once again,” said John Offerdahl, event founder and former Miami Dolphins All-Pro Linebacker. “This will be the fifth year in a row that fans can enjoy this charitable event where football, food and charity collide to feed the needs of kids in crisis.”
Part of the success of this event is the fan interaction with Miami Dolphins legends paired with South Florida’s top chefs. These teams will create winning dishes for all to sample, such as last year’s “Judge’s Choice” recipe, Santorini Grilled Octopus, prepared by Miami Dolphins “Undefeated Team” Guard #64 Ed Newman and Chef Peter Boulukus of YOLO and “People’s Choice” award-winning dish, Bacon and Bleu Rib-Eye, created by Dolphins legend Safety #47 Glenn Blackwood and Chef Victor Franco of Oceans 234. Grill-Off attendees will taste these culinary masterpieces paired with a selection of Gallo wines, vote for their favorite grill recipe and look on as judges select the winning team. This year’s participating Dolphins players and chefs will be announced at a later date.
100% of event net proceeds will benefit Offerdahl’s Hand-Off Foundation, which directs funds to agencies that “Feed the Needs of Kids in Crisis,” including 4KIDS of South Florida, HOPE South Florida, Here’s Help, Florida Restaurant & Lodging Association, Miami Dolphins Foundation and Taste of the NFL.
Tickets for the Gridiron Grill-Off are $85 each, which includes access to Jack Daniel’s Tennessee Honey Tailgate Zone and the Southeast Toyota Cornhole Stadium. Tickets go on sale Tuesday, July 15 and can be purchased at www.gridirongrilloff.com.
This tribute to football, food and charity is sponsored by Broward Health and in part by Walgreens.

* How Come No Starbucks In Israel?

Bahrain, Egypt, Jordan, Kuwatt, Lebanon, Morocco, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emigrates- they all got Starbucks stores…

How come there are no Starbucks in Israel?

Jeff Eats thinks…

Starbucks is scared sh@tless of an Arab Boycott of its Mideast stores.

Just so we are straight, Starbucks had 7-stores in Israel but closed them in 2003. The Company’s position on those closings was- that it was purely a business decision based on its inability to successfully work with its Israeli based business partner. My “call” is just my opinion, but my business contacts in Israel told me that back in 2003 Starbucks conveniently found a way to exit the market. These same sources said to check the “people” who own the Arab operation. The sources said that the Arab-operator is super powerful/connected and Starbucks just played it safe by abandoning the Israeli market.

Like I said 2 seconds ago, Jeff Eats doesn’t “buy” Starbucks’ reason…

Anyone care to discuss?

***** Burgers & Suds, 360 East McNab Road, Pompano Beach, Florida 33060, (954) 586-4258.

Received the following email last night…
Jeff,
My wife and I recently moved because of business from Atlanta to Pompano Beach.
Simply put, we are real foodies. We love to try all types of restaurants and foods.
We are huge Guy Fieri and Adam Richman fans. Like Guy and Adam we are really into what Guy would call DIVES.
Read about you and JEFFEATS.COM in Boca Life Magazine.
Your site seems to have loads of DIVES. You seem like our type of guy.
How about starting us new Floridians off with a great DIVE that does burgers, wings, fries, onion rings and sandwiches?

Tom L:

Welcome to South Florida.

Give Burgers & Suds a shot.

For what it’s worth Guy Fieri calls them DIVES…Jeff Eats calls them JOINTS! You know- I say TOMATO and you say tomato!

For your reference, I have reprinted previous Jeff Eats’ Burger & Suds “stories.”

Trust me, you’re not the first “foodies” that I have recommended this joint to.

Just so you know, Jeff Eats loves Burgers & Suds…the food is- as Guy Fieri would say, OFF THE CHART!

Let me know what you guys think-of this DIVE- I mean JOINT!!!!!

Burgers & Suds, 360 East McNab Road, Pompano Beach, Florida 33060, (954) 586-4258.

There are only 3 things in life that are certain…

1. Death
2. Taxes.
3. After Jeff Eats buys a stock it goes down.

Anyway,

In past stories (Rev. 7/13/13 & 2/21/14) Jeff Eats told you guys about Burgers & Suds- a terrific full service burger joint that made absolutely delicious burgers/hot dogs/flat breads/wings/salads/sandwiches–back then, Burgers & Suds was a hole-in-the-wall on Commercial Boulevard in Fort Lauderdale.

To make a long story short,

Three days ago, Burgers & Suds moved to a new location, 360 East McNab Road, Pompano Beach, (954) 586-4258. The new spot seats something like 110 inside and 20 outside…it has a small beer/wine bar that seats maybe 10.

Now please pay close attention…

Last night Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats ate at Burgers & Suds and I am telling you–this joint is going to be a HOME RUN…actually, make that a GRAND SLAM. The cheeseburger/char-grilled hot dog/french fries/sweet potato fries/grilled chicken wrap/bacon wrapped chicken wings–were terrific. Trust Jeff Eats, the stuff coming out of Burgers & Suds’ kitchen is in a whole ‘nother league from what most South Florida burger/American Style restaurants are serving. Just that simple.

Try Burger & Suds…my money says that you’ll love it!

Jeff Eats’ articles dated 7/13/13 and 2/21/14 are reprinted below.

Burgers & Suds is open 7 days a week 10am-10pm.

* Burger & Suds.

The other day Jeff Eats received the following e-mail…

Hey Jeff,
My wife and I recently moved to Fort Lauderdale and came across your site when we were looking for restaurants to try.
You really have a load of reviews and we enjoyed reading about many of your picks.
We are very new to the area so we are just getting our feet wet in finding places to go and could use some help.
For starters, what in your opinion is the best relatively unknown ‘hole in the wall’ that does salads, burgers, sandwiches?
Thanks,
JN

JN:

Printed below is a July 13, 2013 story that Jeff Eats did on Burgers & Suds located in Fort Lauderdale. You can check menu/prices at www.burgerssuds.com.

Jeff Eats absolutely loves this joint.

No question in my mind, that Burger & Suds is one of the best “hole in the walls” in South Florida.

The food is amazing.

Burgers & Suds (Fort Lauderdale)
Posted on July 13th, 2013 · American Breakfast Fort Lauderdale Pizza
***** Burgers & Suds, 261 East Commercial Boulevard, Fort Lauderdale, Florida 33334, (954) 772-8007.
You guys can thank me later!
Last night, Jeff Eats ate at Burgers & Suds…for our purposes- let’s call it an “American-Style” hole-in-the-wall that serves salads, burgers, wings, pizzas, sandwiches/wraps, tacos/burritos, Saturday-Sunday breakfast. The name Burgers & Suds is a bit deceiving…for sure, the joints- got 13 different burgers and something like 10 different bottled beer brands—but as I mentioned 2 seconds ago, there is a load of other “items” to stuff your face with.
Before I get into what I “tried”—let me tell, if you want to eat some outrageously good food—then you gotta go to Burgers & Suds. By the way, the joint has only been open…5-months.
I think you guys know by now, that Jeff Eats has eaten in his fair share of South Florida restaurants. Trust me on this, Burgers & Suds’ food is heads and shoulders better than most of the joints that I have been to.
Just so you know, Burgers & Suds looks like an absolute “dump” inside and outside…the inside has a bar that seats maybe 6 and 3 hi-tops that seat 9—the awning covered outside patio has a handful of tables with seating for 24…do the math—we are talking a total of 39 seats for the whole joint.
Before Jeff Eats goes any further, let me tell you that Burgers & Suds is my kinda of a joint or shall I say dump? I seriously doubt that most people looking at Burgers & Suds for the first time-would even consider eating there…
I’m sure, that you-know the old saying…”Don’t judge a book by its cover”—well, Burgers & Suds could be the poster-child for that famous line.
Last night, Jeff Eats’ party of-4 “had”…honey garlic wings (10 wings $8.95), Greek salad ($5.95), 1/2lb cheeseburger with onion rings ($8.95), chicken wrap with sweet potato fries ($7.95), 10″ margarita pizza ($7.95), lamb burger with French fries ($10.95) and the food was amazingly good. No fooling around here, I would rate the cheeseburger right up there with the best that I’ve had ANYWHERE. Let me go as far and say—every item that we had was terrific and could hold its own against South Florida’s best of breed.
Burgers & Suds was a rare find. This joint isn’t some-guy throwing pre-formed frozen burger patties on a grill…the joint is supplied daily by a local butcher shop…hamburgers are charbroiled while lamb burgers are flat-top grilled—salad dressings are made in-house. The back-of-the-house really knows how to “cook” and portion size/price points tells me that a real “pro” is running Burger & Suds.
For right now, I’m thinking-that not too many people know about this joint- but, I’m willing to bet you a breakfast/lunch/or dinner–your choice, that this anonymity won’t last too much longer. There is no way that food like this—doesn’t find a gigantic audience.
For you “drinkers”–in addition to 10 bottled beer-brands, Burgers & Suds has a handful of wines by the glass/bottle…
For you “sports people”– there are 2 big flat screen tvs inside and 1 big flat screen outside.
Not to be too repetitious or nothing—but I’m telling you, you gotta try this joint!
You can check www.burgerssuds.com for menu/prices.
Burgers & Suds is open for lunch/dinner Monday-Friday 10am-9pm, Saturday-Sunday 8am-9pm (breakfast 8am-noon).

***** Miami Mediterranean Cuisine, 209 11th Street, Miami, Beach, Florida 33139, (305) 674-8384.

Let me start off by saying that Jeff Eats LOVED-Miami Mediterranean Cuisine. The joint is a mom & pop “hole in the wall”-deal that does delicious Mediterranean stuff. Just so you know, maybe a handful of tables-so don’t plan on holding a Confirmation Party or nothing there. Jeff Eats was in there the other day for lunch-big-big-big takeout business (if I’m not mistaken, big-big-big = huge).

Miami Mediterranean’s menu isn’t gigantic, but trust me you’ll find what to eat…handful of appetizers, salads, sandwiches, entrees. For complete menu/prices check miamimedcuisine.com.

Jeff Eats “tried” gyro ($6.50), chicken shish kebab ($6.50), Greek salad ($7.50), tzatziki ($4.00), babaghonush ($4.00) and really enjoyed everything.

Look! You guys know that Jeff Eats really isn’t into rankings and other such nonsense…I just love people who say- “That was the best pizza I ever ate.”- or “That was the best grilled cheese sandwich I ever had.” For crying out-loud, I can’t even remember what I ate for breakfast this morning. Hopefully you guys get Jeff Eats’ point!

Anyway,
With the above in mind, I gotta tell you that the everything I ate was delicious and the gyro-if memory serves me correctly, was one of the best that I’ve ever eaten…hey, I’m only human!

Let’s wrap this one up for you,

Miami Mediterranean Cuisine makes terrific stuff.

Jeff Eats highly recommends that you give it a shot.

The joint is open 7 days a week 11am-2am.

* Universal Orlando Halloween Horror Nights 24.

Call Jeff Eats a wild and crazy guy…but I got something for you guys-that I seriously doubt you would have ever considered on your own…UNIVERSAL ORLANDO HALLOWEEN HORROR NIGHTS 24.

Real simple concept,

On select nights, September 19- November 1, 2014…Universal Orlando stages a gigantic Halloween Horror Night. The full boat of haunted houses, “scary” characters, decorations, shows, rides, food, merchandise.

Nothing for nothing, Jeff Eats has been to 14 of these Horror Nights and I had an absolute blast at each and every one of them. Truth be told, I only had a blast at 13 of them…one Halloween Horror Night was-9 days after I had cataract surgery–the haunted houses’ lights/mirrors really threw me for a loop–then again, no one ever said that Jeff Eats was the brightest goblin in the barrel. So, be smart-think twice about “doing” Halloween Horror Night 9 days after cataract surgery. As you can see from the event’s title–this is Universal Orlando’s 24th year-trust me on this, Universal Orlando is an absolute expert on staging this-thing.

Just so you know, the way I- played attending in the past…Jeff Eats caught a room at one of Universal Orlando Resort Hotels (Hard Rock Hotel, Loews Portofino Bay Hotel, Loews Royal Pacific Resort) on a Friday-did Horror Night and headed home late on Saturday night. For what it’s worth, all three listed hotels were dynamite, with my pecking order being the Hard Rock, Royal Pacific, Portofino. Just so you know, last year Universal added another hotel to the mix-Universal’s Cabana Bay Beach Resort-so you now got 4 hotels-should you want to stay on “property.”

Rather than my going into detail about Halloween Horror Night, let’s just say that my having done 14 of them should speak volumes.

On- tickets/info, check halloweenhorrornights.com. Also check universalorlando.com for tickets/hotels/info.

Just a heads up, be smart and “search” around-Coca Cola has a ticket promo-deal working…there is also a Florida Resident deal floating around. On hotels, the smart move is to stay at one of Universal’s joints…you can walk to the “park”–real easy!

Like I said before, I love- this Halloween Horror Nights’ thing.

Universal recommends 13+ on age…trust me, you’ll be more scared than your 8 year old kid or grandchild is…Capice!

Kids or no kids,

I’m telling you…DO THIS THING! It’s fabulous.

* Gold Star Events (goldstar.com).

I don’t know about you guys, but every day Jeff Eats gets bombarded with all kinds of “internet” discount-deals…restaurants, manicures, movie tickets, cosmetics, facials, hotels, foot massages, acne treatments, nose hair clippers, parachute jumping lessons, toenail fungus removal treatment…there is literally a “deal” for everything and anything out there in Internet Land. Now don’t get me wrong, Jeff Eats likes to save money- but I gotta tell you, most of the deals “presented” are of absolutely no interest to me whatsoever…

Anyway, to make a long story short…

About a month ago, Jeff Eats started getting emails from a company named Goldstar Events, Inc. (goldstar.com)–which features “deals” on Florida-EVENTS that I (and I emphasize the word I) would actually buy and use…concert tickets, show tickets, theater tickets, comedy club tickets, food event tickets, sporting event tickets, tours, expos…at 50% off face-value!…and every so often- “comp” tickets.

Just so you know, I “used” Goldstar and got exactly what was advertised.

Let me wrap this up for you,

If you want to save some bucks (and who doesn’t!-other than my good friend Nick who for some unknown reason-thinks he is above all this “bargain” stuff) you gotta checkout this goldstar.com site-which services major cities all over the United States.

Printed below is Goldstar’s “description” from its website.

One last piece of business. The nose hair clipper that I got through livingsocial.com was a pretty decent buy!
