It’s that time of year again when lights go dim along South Florida’s fabulous coastline in order to help sea turtle hatchlings find their way to the ocean safely.

It’s #FloridaBeerFriday. Every Friday, we take a look at a beer brewed in the Sunshine State, giving analysis to the burgeoning craft beer movement of Florida. For the past year or so, we’ve been taking a look at beers from across the state. Most of them have been locally available…

It’s kind of sexist, but there is an assumption that all women are into the color pink (though we all know that’s not really true). While the color has come to symbolize all things womanhood — breast cancer awareness, women’s right groups — it also stands for terrible wine, namely…
Usually when a young man has a Bar Mitzvah he’s celebrated with a large party and lavished with checks and gifts. When consulted about his own Bar Mitzvah, 12 year-old Wellington resident Ryan Shnider had a strange request. Was it to have a Cirque-themed affair? Hire One Direction as cover…
When it comes to daytime dining on Las Olas, you’re more likely to find yourself in the power-lunch scene than an affordable cafe — unless you happen to stumble into the Subway, of course. That’s not the case anymore. Daily Melt recently opened just off the main drag of the…
It would be easy to pass over the small retail bay on your way to laser tag next door if it weren’t for the large, lit-up, red letters burning “Brewery” into the night sky. Still, the strip-mall vibe belies the nanobrew-level scale of experimentation and uniqueness that emerges from inside…
Don’t get me wrong. I love the word fuck. And if you do too, then you’ll want to watch Vice’s Fuck, That’s Delicious. The monthly series stars Queens-born chef-turned rapper Action Bronson, who plays host to what can only be described as “dude peppering his food and language.” Literally…
It doesn’t take much to get a television show these days. All you need is a bright fresh face, some tricks, and the ability to grocery shop. Case in point: Semi Homemade Cooking With Sandra Lee. The buxom blonde is best known for making shitty food from processed ingredients that…
For the past few weeks, I’ve been reading through, section by section, the latest and probably most all-encompassing book to showcase the craft brewing scene in Florida.

Restaurants and foods tend to come around in trends. Remember when a new gourmet burger joint seemed to be opening its doors, like, every other day? Pizza, on the other hand, is one of the least fashionable food items on the planet — it’s been around since the Roman days…

Your mom has had to deal with years of your issues — don’t even try to say you were an easy teen (there’s no such thing). After changing diapers, handling meltdowns, paying your bills, and everything else that goes along with parenting, the woman could use a bit of appreciation…
It’s hard to believe, but our baby is all grown up. Funky Buddha is turning 1 year old in June. The Oakland Park brewery opened in June 2013 in a region not exactly known for its thriving brewery scene. In an extremely short period of time, Funky Buddha has become…
Downtown Fort Lauderdale has most certainly seen better days: years ago Himmarshee street was a vibrant dining and nightlife scene. After the recession hit, it went from diverse social spot to drunken bar scene. That being said, over the last year or so, that’s been starting to change. New food-driven…
No matter what your relationship is like with your mother, chances are you owe her a lot. (Let’s be honest: Birthing a child cannot be fun.) You should at least buy the woman brunch or dinner on this, her most special day. Mother’s Day is coming up this Sunday, which…
