***** North South Grill, 154 South Flamingo Road Pembroke Pines, Florida 33027, (954) 404-8308.

Got a real good grilled subs/ chicken tenders/ gyros/ burgers/ salads fast food joint that you guys gotta check-out, North South Grill in Pembroke Pines.

Real simple tale to tell, yesterday afternoon Jeff Eats, Mrs. Jeff Eats and our friends Lynne and Norman “discovered” North South Grill and its food totally blew us away! Order at counter-food delivered to table, table seating, reasonably priced menu of subs/ burgers/ sandwiches/ gyros/ salads/ chicken tenders/ sides.

Just so you guys know, when I see “eclectic” fast food menus like North South Grill’s- the old saying “Jack of all trades, master of none” – always pops into my head!

Anyway, like I said 5 seconds ago, the joint’s food totally blew us away!

Let’s wrap North South Grill up by saying that you guys can check menu/prices/info at northsouthgrill.com, that the joint is open Monday-Thursday 11am-10pm/ Friday-Saturday 11am-11pm/ Sunday noon-10pm and that if the joint was a drop closer to Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats’ Boca Raton abode- we would be real steady customers!

* Happy Thanksgiving.

***** Wingstop, 4570 Lyons Road, Coconut Creek, Florida 33073, (954) 935-9464.

Wingstop is a “national” WING chain. For our purposes, there are currently 7 South Florida locations. You can check www.wingstop.com for menu/prices/locations.

Wingstop is a real-easy concept to comprehend… non breaded wings, breaded boneless wings, breaded white meat chicken strips…9 flavors…handful of sides.

A recent outing had me trying—breaded wings/breaded strips/boneless wings/french fries…hawaiian, teriyaki, garlic parmesan flavors. Loved all of the offerings/flavors. Also really enjoyed the fresh hand cut french fries. From what I can tell, everything is made to order…the stuff came out of the kitchen piping hot.

If you like wings and fries, you’ll like this joint.

Like I said, there are 7 joints in our area, so check Wingstop’s website for a close-by location and its hours.

Trust Jeff Eats on this one, this cheeseburger is absolute dynamite!

You guys can check friendlysrestaurants.com for Florida menu/ prices/ locations (the location reviewed below closed a number of years ago).

Friendly’s is open, Sunday-Thursday 11am-10pm/ Friday-Saturday 11am-11pm.

***** Friendly’s
14701 Military Trail
Delray Beach, Florida 33484
(561) 498-8873

If you check “Stocks”, back on August 2, 2006 I did a “writeup” on Friendly’s Ice Cream Corp. Rather than going into the “gorey details,” suffice it to say, that the writeup indicated that Friendly’s Ice Cream Corp, (a publiclly owned company), was a mismanaged restaurant chain that despite itself, could be a “stock play” based on its real-estate and “turn-around” possibilities.

Now let’s “talk” about the brand new Friendly’s location that opened a few weeks ago in Delray Beach.

This new Friendly’s is owned and operated by a guy named Noah Lewinger. From what I understand, this is Lewinger’s first Friendly’s franchise location and that he has plans to open an additional 13 stores in Palm Beach/Broward counites.

Now, I maybe really going out on a limb here, but based on 5 visits (2 in the evening and 3 in the afternoon), Mr. Lewinger may actually KNOW HOW TO REALLY RUN THIS TYPE OF A JOINT.

Friendly’s is open 7 days a week, Sunday-Thursday 7am-11pm and Friday-Saturday 7am-midnight.

Lewinger’s Friendly’s, is a big, beautifully designed store. It is clean, well staffed and well run. To date, I have had “Friendly’s Big Beef Burger,” “Chicken Cobb Salad,” “Chicken Parmesan SuperMelt,” Chicken Wrap” and Steak Fajita Quesadillas. In addition I “consumed” 3 “Friend-Zs” (they are similar to Dairy Queen’s Blizzards) which are soft-serve ice cream/whipped together with your choice(s) of topping. Just in case “we” go on the Dating Game TV Show, “you” should know that my favorite combination is chocolate soft serve and Heath Bar.

If you live in the Delray Beach area, give THIS Friendly’s a try. It has a “basic” diner menu at diner prices…and I “must” tell you, the food was terrific.
