Beer, beer, and more beer – if there’s anything else on the menu this weekend, you’d be hard pressed to find it in this listing. OK, not true; there are several foodie events that don’t focus on barley and hops, but the overriding theme this weekend is certainly on brews…
The typical food truck rally, with its throngs of hungry patrons and platefuls of sloppy tacos and shredded pork, probably doesn’t rank too high on the list of mood-setting date destinations. While Sunday’s Gourmet Truck Expo event at Mounts Botanical Garden in West Palm Beach isn’t exactly a candle-lit corner…
It’s something of a quiet week in Broward and Palm Beach Counties, presumably because South Florida residents will be girding their loins — and leaving time to pick up the lederhosen and dirndl from the dry cleaners — for the onslaught of Oktoberfest and a litany of events calling for…
This weekend belongs to food trucks and the South Florida denizens who love their mobile food wares. The schedule over the next few days is dominated by food truck rallies, derbies and festivals, with a transportation network for party goers in Southern Palm Beach County thrown in the mix. Here’s…
While New Times’ intrepid food critic explores her local options for beer-flavored ice cream — and while we’re on the subject, I say this without judgment, but Budweiser?! — and other assorted goods flavored with the nectar of the gods, Sara Bogotch will be introducing attendees at the Under the…
Let’s be honest here: Boca Raton isn’t exactly known as a destination for craft beer or chill vibes — gated communities and gray hair, perhaps, but the former, not so much. Regardless of its stodgy image, there are a few gems that cater to a fairly hip demographic, and these…
As the great fall migration marches ever nearer, it’s a good time to enjoy that sweet spot for dining out in South Florida. The temperature is comfortable enough at night that it’s not criminally insane to take your meal outside on a patio or to spend the late afternoon sharing…
The Clean Plate Charlie team and plenty of South Florida food devotees will spend tonight sipping, sharing, comparing notes, and possibly loosening waistbands at the 4th Annual New Times Pairings event from 7 to 10 p.m. at the Broward Center for the Performing Arts in Fort Lauderdale. Time is limited…
Never ones to let a good “drinking” holiday go by unobserved, Rocco’s Tacos and Tequila Bar will commemorate Mexican Independence Day on Friday at its three South Florida locations; Boca Raton, Fort Lauderdale and West Palm Beach. Each party will have its own draw – live music by Suenalo in…
This is a great week for thrifty food fans, as you could easily fill your calendar with back-to-back events that give you tons of gastronomic bang for your buck — and in one strange case, no buck(s) (but perhaps a beak) required! Not only is Flavor Palm Beach in full…
As we slowly — one might even be tempted to say, painfully slow — divest ourselves of the long, sleepy, hot hurricane-filled summer, the calendar is filling with food and drink events stacked end to end throughout Broward and Palm Beach Counties. Sunday will remain fairly quiet in the drink…
Knowing your dinner tab is going to help kids and families who are in need is one way to get the warm and fuzzies (pairing your meal with a glass or two of red is another). FLIPANY’s Chefs Up Front dinner raises funds for a worthy org — Share Our…
It’s Monday, and yet, it’s still the weekend – what a beautiful conundrum. Assuming you were given the day off and don’t have a fancy pool party to crash, there are a few options about town with which to entertain yourself. If you’re running low on funds after a weekend…
Sticking around town for Labor Day and dreading Tuesday morning, when you’ll have to listen to that jerk from sales brag about his awesome weekend spent hanging on the deck of Lady Gaga’s space yacht helping Beyoncé choose a baby name? Honestly, the only thing worse than returning to work…
Don’t worry — none of these guys will go into making your wine for the evening. There may be few problems that bacon can’t solve, but how to score with the cute bunny-hugging chick …
So, Irene is out of our hair, having wreaked little havoc in Broward or Palm Beach counties. And while you may be tempted to stay home and celebrate that fact with the remainder of your hurricane supplies (read: booze, and uh… saltines?), there are fun things to be done and…
Barring any unforeseen changes in weather (ahem, Irene), seismic activity, floods, or locust swarms, there will be plenty of food events this weekend — ideally none will involve your having to mix Ramen noodles with a bottle of tepid water and a can of “emergency hurricane” tuna that’s been collecting…
Finally, a tasting event that Don Draper himself would approve of. And really, what better way to commemorate you and your special someone burning your way through all four seasons of Mad Men on Netflix this summer than with a Glenfiddich tasting at Morton’s, the Steakhouse in Fort Lauderdale. The…
When you’ve exhausted all of the episodes of “No Reservations” available on streaming Netflix and you’re on to re-reading back issues of “Every Day With Rachael Ray” it’s a sign that you need to leave the house and fulfill your foodie obsession out and about with living, breathing humans. Don’t…
If you’re the type to start enjoying the weekend on Thursday, well, more power to ya, as there are a few fun things about town this evening including the Celebrity Shake Up! fundraiser at Morton’s, the Steakhouse; the newly minted Arts, Beats & Eats festival in Delray Beach and the…
A bottle-flipping Tom Cruise — circa Cocktail — still reigns as one of the best celebrity drink slingers of all time, but it doesn’t mean he’s the only worthy contender. Get your martini stirred by some of Palm Beach County’s top movers and shakers at Celebrity Shake Up! Thursday at…
We’re still a few months away from season really taking hold in South Florida, but that doesn’t mean you have to stay tethered to the couch during the week. There are still lots of reasons to venture out and feast with strangers or put a few back with your friends…
