***UPDATE…UNFORTUNATELY SPLASH AS CLOSED*** But I’m leaving this blog post online so I can remember the great times we had in this cute and popular spot.) RIP Splash!  🙁   Some places are hard to find…but worth the effort. And one of those places is SPLASH BAR AND GRILL.     It’s tucked away behind […]

  Here is my favorite entree at Crazy Wok in Fort Lauderdale…   It’s Chicken in Garlic Sauce. It really is a Rainbow on my plate!

Hubby wasn’t coming home for lunch on Friday, and I decided to “broaden my culinary horizons” on a solo adventure. So I walked out the back door of our condo, and I walked less than a block. And suddenly found myself in…HAVANA? We’ve lived in our Fort Lauderdale neighborhood for at least six years, and […]

No…that is NOT a misprint. It’s N. (period) Y (no period) Deli.  I forgot to ask WHY they left off that second little dot from their sign out front… But no matter how they spell their name…the food was REALLY GOOD.   Especially my BAGEL…     And it’s not often we see a restaurant […]

We’re always on the lookout for another good breakfast spot, so when we saw this silver roof we knew we had to give Lester’s a try.  (After all, the sign says they’ve been around since 1967.)     We asked to be seated out on their patio, and our server obliged.     Apparently, Lester’s […]

We are always on the look-out for interesting places to eat…And we’ve driven by this spot for years.  So at lunchtime today I said it was time to check it out… www.yakzies.com/pompano.html And I must admit…this sign on their building made me want to try it…   The food was good (when it finally arrived)…but […]

Today we headed back to a really yummy breakfast spot: Cypress Nook.  It is run by an incredibly friendly German lady who always takes time to wander among her diners and chat.  It’s a Mom and Pop sort of place…and it’s a great spot to sit outside on a beautiful Winter morning.   Their menu […]

Nothing fancy…just GOOD. That’s all I have to say about this place…               It’s worth a trip…and the cook and the staff will make you feel like family.

Thanks to my GPS (I’ve named “her” Stella!) we found another spot for a good breakfast. And let’s just say owner/chef “Nelson” appears to LOVE Elvis and the Golden Oldies in general.   Menu   That’s Owner/Chef  Nelson…In the Apron…”Working the Crowd”…   We felt right at home after we discovered a Hawkeye pennant on […]
