***** Two Tomatoes, 12040 South Jog Road, Boynton Beach, Florida 33437, (561) 369-0656.

Got a real good pizza joint for you guys to check-out, Two Tomatoes in Boynton Beach.

Real simple concept at work here, appetizers/pizza/subs/pastas/entrees, order/pickup at counter, give or take a half dozen tables, open Monday-Saturday 11am-8pm/ Sunday 4pm-8pm.

Yesterday, Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats gave Two Tomatoes a shot and I gotta tell you guys that the ordered -10” meatball parmigiana sub ($8.25), 2 pizza slices with fountain drink “special” ($5.99) and large antipasto salad ($9.95) were all right on the money delicious! Now I’m not gonna name names, but Two Tomatoes’ food was as good if not better than most of the “mom & pop” Italian and sub joints that we frequent by our house in Boca Raton!

Let me wrap Two Tomatoes up for you guys by saying- this joint is a winner and that if you live, work, visit or play in its neighborhood- give it a try!

* Humor!

On the first day after his divorce, he sadly packed his belongings into boxes, crates, and suitcases.

On the second day, he had the movers come and collect his things.

On the third day, he sat down for the last time at their beautiful dining-room table, by candle-light; he put on some soft background music, and feasted on a pound of shrimp, a jar of caviar, a bottle of spring-water, and 3 cans of sardines.

When he had finished, he went into each and every room and deposited a few half-eaten shrimps dipped in caviar, and some sardines into the hollow center of the curtain rods.

He then cleaned up the kitchen and left.

On the fourth day, the wife came back with her new boyfriend, and at first there was bliss.

Then, slowly, the house began to smell.

They tried everything; cleaning, mopping, and airing-out the place. Vents were checked for dead rodents, and carpets were steam cleaned.

Air fresheners were hung everywhere. Exterminators were brought in to set off gas canisters, during which time the two had to move out for a few days, and in the end they even paid to replace the expensive wool carpeting. Nothing worked!…People stopped coming over to visit.

Repairmen refused to work in the house…The maid quit.

Finally, they couldn’t take the stench any longer, and decided they had to move, but a month later – even though they’d cut their price in half – they couldn’t find a buyer for such a stinky house.

Word got out, and eventually even the local realtors refused to return their calls.

Finally, unable to wait any longer for a purchaser, they had to borrow a huge sum of money from the bank to purchase a new place.

Then the ex called the woman and asked how things were going. She told him the saga of the rotting house. He listened politely and said that he missed his old home terribly and would be willing to reduce his divorce settlement in exchange for having the house.

Knowing he could have no idea how bad the smell really was, she agreed on a price that was only 1/10 nth of what the house had been worth … but only if he would sign the papers that very day.

He agreed, and within two hours her lawyers delivered the completed paperwork.

A week later the woman and her boyfriend stood smiling as they watched the moving company pack everything to take to their new home and to spite the ex-husband… they even took the curtain rods!

I LOVE A HAPPY ENDING, DON’T YOU?

Lates Review: 9/4/23

Silver Palace Chinese Restaurant is an absolute must try!

Posted on September 4th, 2015

***** Silver Palace Chinese Restaurant.

Way-back on April 13, 2014 Jeff Eats told you guys about- Silver Palace Chinese Restaurant in Miami.

Just between us, I hadn’t been back since that “story” appeared.

Long story short, Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats ate dinner there last night and I gotta tell you- this joint makes some top-notch delicious stuff.

For our purposes, we’re gonna call Silver Palace Chinese Restaurant an “out of sight, out of mind” situation…trust me, it’s a schlep and a half from Boca Raton!

Anyway,

With “Season” fast approaching, the next time one of your ” visiting out of state friends” asks- “You got any good Chinese restaurants down here?- with your head held high, clothed in your tee shirt/shorts/sneakers’ ensemble- you can tell them all about/or take them to -Silver Palace Chinese Restaurant!

Silver Palace Chinese Restaurant (Miami)
Posted on April 3rd, 2014 · Chinese Miami

***** Silver Palace Chinese Restaurant, 5771 Southwest 137th Avenue, Miami, Florida 33183, (305) 382-1598.

Got a terrific-Chinese joint for you…Silver Palace Chinese Restaurant in Miami.

For what it’s worth, Jeff Eats can’t begin to tell you–how many times in any given month–somebody comes up to me and says–and I paraphrase “Can’t find decent Chinese food down here.” By the way–I counted 3x in March 2014–but who’s counting?

Between Jeff Eats and you–there are actually a load of good Chinese restaurants/take outs down here in Sunny South Florida…just like there are a ton of really good pizza joints down here–but that’s a story for another day!

If you guys check, Jeff Eats’ “Chinese” there are a number of rave Chinese reviews.

Anyway…

Before I get going on Silver Palace Chinese Restaurant–I’m thinking that in NYC, Chicago, Boston, Cleveland (you can pick your favorite non-South Florida City) there are plenty of lousy/horrendous Chinese restaurants. If memory serves me correctly, when the-Eats Family lived in Manhattan from 1979-1991 there was a Chinese restaurant right across the street from our apartment building at the intersection of East 63rd Street and 2nd Avenue that served up some of the most disgusting stuff imaginable—as a matter of fact, there was also a Chinese joint one block away on 2nd Avenue and East 62nd Street that was a close second to the “guy” on 63rd Street. Get the point! If not, this “food reviewing”-deal is a strictly subjective enterprise.

Back to Silver Palace…

Recently ate at Silver Palace and thought that the food was dynamite. Just so you know, the joint has 2-menus. One for us “Brooklyn” folks looking for Jewish-Brooklyn- American Chinese food circa 1957–and another for you folks into “real authentic” (whatever that means? probably garlic squid-but not sure) Chinese food.

The Silver Palace meal…wonton soup, egg drop soup, egg rolls, bbq ribs, sweet & sour pork, roast pork fried rice, pepper steak, garlic chicken, shrimp in lobster/black bean sauce–and I gotta tell you–“imho” this joint could make a real-good living in NYC’s China Town. For those of you who like pecking-orders, the garlic chicken and sweet & sour pork were off-the-chart. By the way, your tee shirt/shorts/flip flop ensemble will definitely work-in this mom & pop joint.

Quick story…

A few months ago, a friend (not gonna mention names) raved about NYC’s– Shun Lee Palace’s food claiming that the Chinese food in South Florida was- and I quote “dog food” …to make a long story short, this same guy and his wife were with Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats when we ate at Silver Palace–and during dinner told me, and I quote-“This food is better than Shun Lee’s, at half-the-price.” Like I said, before, this food reviewing business–is purely a subjective game.

I’ll leave it up to you guys to decide for yourselves—all I know is that Silver Palace’s food was “imho” TERRIFIC!

Silver Palace Chinese Restaurant is open 7 days a week 11am-10pm.

***** Warren- American/Whiskey/Kitchen, 15084 Lyons Road, Delray Beach, Florida 33446, (561) 455-4177.

Got an absolutely killer American-Style joint for you guys to checkout, Warren- American/ Whiskey/ Kitchen in Delray Beach.

Way-back on June 11th, 2021 I told you guys that I had been hearing terrific things about Warren which had literally just opened in Delray Beach and that I planned on giving Warren a shot in the very near future- Long story short, last Saturday night (7/3/21)- Jeff Eats, Mrs. Jeff Eats and two other couples ate dinner at Warren and I gotta tell you guys that Warren didn’t disappoint with its food, decor and service absolutely killing it!

Save me some-time and checkout Jeff Eats’ 6/11/21- story (down- below) for background color…

Right out of the gate, Warren’s mind blowing main dining room’s walls are lined-with something like 1,000 bottles filled with different whiskey, bourbon and scotch brands- its open kitchen allows diners to see “their” food prepared, a separate indoor bar-room’s windows permits- patrons to counter dine/drink on an outdoor patio which also has table seating and is set-up to accommodate live music acts and other entertainment!

On the food front, based on our waiter’s recommendation our party of 6 shared a whole bunch of “dishes”- all of which were delicious…

Crispy Calamari
Caesar Salad
Jumbo Lump Crab Cakes
Gloria’s (KFC) Korean Fried Chicken
Warren’s Damn Good Burger
Buttermilk Fried Chicken Sandwich
Lobster Seafood Bolognese
Roasted Heirloom 1/2 Roasted Chicken
Chocolate Fudge Layer Cake

If you insist on a pecking order, Jeff Eats would rate Gloria’s (KFC) Korean Fried Chicken, the Warren Damn Good Burger, Lobster Seafood Bolognese and the Chocolate Fudge Layer Cake as the definite home-run stand-outs! Now you guys do know, what I like you may hate and vice versa…for the record, Mrs. Jeff Eats raved about the Jumbo Lump Crab Cakes, but then again, the name of this blog site is Jeff Eats and not Mrs. Jeff Eats- am I right or am I right!

Let me wrap Warren’s up by saying that this joint is an absolute must try.

You guys can check menu/prices/info at warrendelraycom.

Warren- American/Whiskey/Kitchen is open Tuesday-Sunday 5pm-10pm, closed on Monday.

Hearing absolutely terrific things about Warren, 15084 Lyons Road, Delray Beach, Florida 33446, (561) 455-4177 which opened about a week ago in Delray Beach.

Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats have reservations for later this month.

Hearing that the American-Style joint’s food kills, that it has 2 indoor liquor bars that-literally serve everything imaginable, an outdoor patio that in the coming months will feature all types of musical entertainment, a well trained and professional staff, an everyday 3-6pm by the clock happy hour and a decor that is as cool and hip as can be!

As I mentioned a couple of seconds ago, Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats have reservations later this month- so be on the look -out for a Warren update…

Got a real good “mom & pop” Italian joint for you guys to check-out…Avellino’s Italian Restaurant in Delray Beach.

Just between you guys and me, I kinda think that I know my “mom & pop” Italian joints- and I’m telling you guys that Avellino’s in Delray Beach is a winner!

Real simple tale to tell…last night Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats “discovered” Avellino’s and its food absolutely killed! Table/booth seating, reasonably priced appetizers/ salads/ hot & cold subs-panini/ salads/ pastas/ brick oven pizzas/ entrees/ other stuff dinner menu, lunch menu, twilight menu, super pleasant service…and yes- the joint’s dinner entrees come with soup or salad/ pasta side/ garlic rolls.

Let me wrap-up Avellino’s Italian Restaurant by telling you guys- that its brick-oven pizza alone was worth the price of admission. Other than for dough, cheese and tomato sauce I-got no idea as to what else (if anything) went into the the final product- All I can say – off the chart delicious!

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