The Big Game is finished and chances are you’re still hungover. When you finally make it through the worst workday of the year so far, why not hit the streets for a bite to eat? Or perhaps a little hair of the dog? Even if you can’t manage to pull…
Are you ready for some football? What about the Chinese New Year? Even if you don’t care about any of the myriad celebratory offerings this weekend, you’re going to have to eat something. We perused the highs and lows of the Borward-Palm Beach area and cooked up this tasty menu…
Love: It’s in the air right now — or at least it’s supposed to be. Stores have decked their halls with red and pink, and heart-shaped everything is everywhere to celebrate the international holiday of adoration. Whether you’re ready for it or not, Valentine’s Day is next Friday, February 14…
‘Murica! Every Friday, we take a look at a beer brewed in the Sunshine State, giving analysis to the burgeoning craft beer movement of Florida. Originally crafted in August of last year, Due South Brewing’s UXO American Strong Ale is now one of the brewery’s entries in their canned beer…
South Florida is a relatively young part of the country. While other cities boast taverns where our founding fathers drank ale while writing the Constitution, our history is fairly new. But that doesn’t mean we don’t have some grand dames to admire. Take, for example, Gulfstream Park, which celebrates its…
With another month comes another bunch of new restaurants. While we still have plenty of spots we’re waiting to see open doors (Ahem, Trader Joe’s!), the last four weeks of January proved to be a good one for the world of food. From beer-centric gastro pubs to coal fired pizzas…
Are you a serious Super Bowl party host or hostess? You may think so, but if you’re just serving chicken wings and burgers, you’re not. Serious football fans serve their guests an epic football stadium — all edible, of course. See also: The Great Chicken Wing Hunt: Movie and Recipe…
Anthony Bourdain is a home owner. The celebrity chef, television host, and professional Tweeter, has just purchased a condo at Carnegie Hill Tower in New York’s tony Carnegie Hill section (just off Fifth Avenue for those of you not familiar with Manhattan real estate). The condo, a three bedroom, three…
Most of us love anything to do with Brazil: steakhouses, soccer, Havaianas, bikini waxes, the majority of the Victoria’s Secret models — the list goes on and on. What many of us are less familiar with is Brazilian food. Sure, we’ve been to steakhouses, but it’s hard to go for…
After two years of hold-ups the U.S. House of Representatives finally approved a farm bill. We would say those fine men and women should pat themselves on the back, but it should never have been dragged out this long in the first place. Anyway, the point is: we’ve finally made…
After months of heading over to friends’ homes or visiting your favorite bar to watch football every first day of the week, the culmination is here. The Super Bowl is coming up this Sunday — your favorite weekend activity is about to take a break. You better make sure you…
Many Chinese immigrants left their homeland in the late 1800s to escape the ravages of war, political corruption, and starvation. Some came to the United States, where they worked on railroads and in mines and adapted their cuisines to the American palate, inventing dishes like chop suey, chow mein, and…
The Fresh Market is expanding their South Florida empire with the opening of a new location in Delray Beach. The store, located in the Harbor Plaza shopping center at 1727 South Federal Highway, has also created 90 new jobs, most of which are being filled locally. See also: Fresh Market…
Super Bowl Sunday is upon us. May we suggest subbing out the pre-game show with a movie? Actually, it’s not just any movie. It’s a movie about one man’s search for the best chicken wings in America — our favorite kind of movie. The Great Chicken Wing Hunt is the…
We have a thing for cocktails around here. Whether its a classic Manhattan or daiquiri or some interesting mix of something less conventional like mezcal, we’re all about it as long as its made well. While South Florida has been a bit late to the cocktail game, we’re making up…
Funky Buddha Brewery announced yesterday that it will collaborate with Delaware’s Dogfish Head Brewery for a unification beach brew. Each brewery will come together for a collaboration beer that combines local ingredients, most particularly salt harvested from area beaches. See Also: Funky Buddha Rolled Out the Red Carpet for the…
At the end of next week, we’re going to smelling a whole bunch of people with stank breath in Delray Beach — and most likely garlic-infused B.O. The 15th Annual Garlic Fest is descending upon town, and it’s bringing with it plenty of beautiful — and somewhat grotesque — distinct…
It’s back! The 17th annual New Times “Original” Beerfest returns to downtown Fort Lauderdale on April 5 with more beer and entertainment than ever before. We’re talking over 100 of the world’s best local and international beers — all yours for the sipping…
Many Chinese immigrants left their homeland in the late 1800s to escape the ravages of war, political corruption, and starvation. Some came to the United States, where they worked on railroads and in mines and adapted their cuisines to the American palate, inventing dishes like chop suey, chow mein, and…
In case you hadn’t noticed, football is kind of a big deal in the United States. It’s one of the few activities that brings together people of all ages, colors, genders, creed, shapes, and sizes for days of eating, drinking, and revelry. As much as we love tailgating and going…
If you thought Whole Foods Market is just for picking up organic kale or more cheese than you know what to do with, you’d be sorely missing out on some of the culinary opportunities presented in their kitchens and education areas dubbed ‘Lifestyle Centers’. This coming Friday and Saturday, Whole…
We have food festivals, wine events, seafood cook-offs, garlic celebrations, beer fests — obviously, ours is the best — and a whole host of events and get togethers in Broward and Palm Beach Counties. We’re fortunate; we almost always have something to do that involves eating delicious food. But we’re…
