Everybody loves brunch. It’s all the bacony, eggy, pancakey, greasy glory of breakfast with none of the early rising, plus a side of lunch items and a wink to happy hour. In South Florida, with beautiful weather year-round, it’s a great excuse to get out in the sun and dabble…
Come Christmas Day, what will you be doing? Eating at home with loved ones, celebrating the holiday? Traveling home to see family and friends? Or wondering “What am I going to do all day long?” when everything shuts down? While businesses everywhere shutter their doors for the day, a few…
With the recent opening of a new sandwich shop at Buccan on Palm Beach Island, one has to wonder: does Clay Conley ever stop cooking? Conley, who just a few months ago announced he’ll be opening a new Italian restaurant in West Palm Beach, recently brought life to yet another…

Boca Raton resident Brandon Wells has a favorite saying: “drink deeply.” It’s a fitting philosophy for the man who stands as the owner and founder of one of Palm Beach County’s specialty coffee roasting companies. For Wells, “drink deeply” isn’t a slogan, however. It’s simply a way of life. See…
Around and around we go; today is the start to yet another lovely workweek. Hopefully, you have a bit of a spring in your step from some indulgent weekend activities. If not, don’t fret; there are still plenty of events to keep you busy through your working days. Whether you’re…
Do you know about Asiatic cuisine? If you’re a Roy Villacrusis fan, you do.

Palm Beach County’s local superstar chef recently announced he will be opening a new…
Let’s face it, the holidays are all about eating. And it can be a lonely time when family and friends are far away — or if you’re spending the season in single-mode. But it can be even lonelier when you’re single and, say, gluten-free. For all those weird dietary restrictions…
Congratulations, you made it through yet another working week. You might as well give yourself a pat on the back to celebrate — or better yet, a drink or three. Whether you’d like to do a Christmas bar crawl, attend a brewery or restaurant anniversary party, or help build a…
Not even a few weeks into season, and West Palm Beach’s Kitchen is already running on a two-week, pre-booking reservation schedule. The 36-seat dining room is booked full each night as chef-owner Matthew Byrne, once Tiger Wood’s private chef, prepares his small tasting menu. To expand the concept while still…
December isn’t all about murdered pine trees, a senior citizen with a history of breaking and enterings, and hoofed animals that transmit Lyme disease. There’s another miracle besides a virgin birth to celebrate: an oil lamp that should have burned for only one night and instead lasted for eight. This…
If it’s one food trend South Florida crushed this year, it’s the juice bar. Both Broward and Palm Beach counties saw their fair share of cold-pressed juice bars and smoothie shops. This year, we’ve also seen a new movement take hold: specialty coffee, a slow-growing community of local roasters and…
By now, everyone is familiar with brewery collaborations — when two breweries get together and brewmasters go to work deciding the best way to blend the tastes and styles of their most inspired beer ideas into a single, glorious new beer. While two craft breweries getting together to create something…
It wouldn’t be fair to say Hollywood’s 2-month-old La Huaca Peruvian Cuisine is hidden; it’s just a bit off the beaten path. Sitting at Harrison Street and South 20th Avenue, one block south of Hollywood Boulevard, the new Peruvian eatery is really just steps from the clustered chaos of the…
Around and around we go; today is the start to yet another lovely workweek. Hopefully, you have a bit of a spring in your step from some indulgent weekend activities. If not, don’t fret; there are still plenty of events to keep you busy through your working days. Whether you’re…

Congratulations, you made it through yet another working week. You might as well give yourself a pat on the back to celebrate — or better yet, a drink or three. Whether you’re looking to celebrate Public House’s one year anniversary with a street party, or want to get your dog’s…
Just when you thought you’d heard all the news there is to hear about Tap 42 founders Sean and Blaise McMackin doing big things in South Florida — from Blaise’s new coffee shop, Warsaw, to the third Tap 42 location in Coral Gables and this month’s opening of Green Bar…

Let’s talk about sushi. Not the nigirizushi you’ll get in Japan — slices of raw fish on vinegar-infused fermented rice — but the Western variety: rolls made with cream cheese, imitation crab, cucumber, and avocado, to suit American palates. If you’re a purist, the sushi at Fort Lauderdale’s new Asian-American…
A new coffee shop concept is coming to Fort Lauderdale in 2015 and its creators claim that it’s like nothing you’ve seen before in South Florida — or anywhere, for that matter. Tap 42 co-owner Blaise McMackin has partnered with Scott Ojeda to provide the city with a new kind…
