It’s a hard fact to face: Birthdays mean you’re getting older. Today, for example, I have reached the quarter-century mark. Am I upset about it? Hardly. Mostly due to the copious amounts of free food I will be consuming throughout the day. Restaurants local and nationwide award birthdays with freebies…

After 30 years and an appearance on Diners Drive-in’s and Dives in 2010, the Whale’s Rib has proven to be a landmark in Deerfield Beach. Yesterday’s commenters correctly guessed the dive…
It’s quite a simple concept, really. Take a spicy chicken sandwich, substitute a biscuit for the bun, and serve it for breakfast. While pig is normally the morning meat, Chick-fil-A’s genius idea to wake up to chicken is incentive enough to go back to nourishing my body for the most…

I don’t normally condone eating any meal inside of a gas station. While they may have quick bites, they’re normally tasteless and not filling. That is, of course, unless you’ve been inside the Chevron gas station on South Military Trail in Deerfield Beach…
There are few things more delicious than the taste of crispy fried chicken. The crunch of the skin, the juiciness of the meat, and everlasting thought of bliss as the combination of both make their way into my belly. Thankfully, Fran’s Chicken Haven in Boca Raton fills my gluttonous fat…

Bringing in the New Year mainly consists of copious amounts of alcohol, mass texting, and food. Lots and lots of food. To celebrate the New Year, Chick-fil-A is giving out their new spicy chicken biscuit a week before they are officially on the menu. Visitors get to taste the new…
Pretty much all worldwide celebrations nowadays involve mass texting. While I’m not an advocate of such a lazy and boring practice, I am a recipient. I expect many at midnight this Friday, December 31. Maxim has realized the bland mass text craze and created the Champagne Popper — a free…
Maybe I made this too easy on you guys. Congrats to Dennis for correctly guessing The Original Brooklyn Water Bagel Co. in Delray Beach. This location has been here just over a year, but the Palm Beach Gardens location had a grand opening last month. They also have a spot…

When the Godfather of quick ‘n easy cooking tells you to say “Ooh it’s so good,” you abide. So when Art Ginsburg – Mr. Food himself – instructed me to do just that, I got red in the cheeks, and followed orders. Apparently, it’s not uncommon for him to ask…
Yesterday’s “Guess Where We’re Eating!?” challenge featured Tucci’s Fire N Coal Pizza. Congratulations to Dani, who was the first to guess correctly. The nearly 2-year-old pizza joint in Mizner Park in Boca Raton gave away free pizza during the World Cup…
Located in south Palm Beach County, this pizza joint can fire up a pie in six minutes! While pepperoni may be my favorite topping, they aren’t just tossing pizzas around. This place also offers roasted wings doused in rosemary, garlic, and caramelized onions. Open for both lunch and dinner, this…
