Every city is known for something noteworthy. New York is the city that never sleeps. Chicago is recognized for its wind and the hot air blown from the traps of its politicians. Vegas is known for nothing happening. Austin is just weird. Fort Liquordale is known for drinking. Given the…
Ever since the Mack House, Holy Mackerel’s tap room and nano brewery, lost its brewer Bobby Gordash back in June, owner Larry Hatfield has been front and center in bringing about Mack House 2.0, with the first step involving hiring a new brewer. That brewer is finally revealed as Tamarac…
There once was a day in which people actually cooked for themselves. Unless its for special occasions, that day has come and gone. Whether it’s eating out with friends, picking up some Chipotle on the way home, or pizza delivery, it seems like no one cooks on weeknights anymore –…
In terms of native South Floridians, you could probably count them on one hand. Barely anyone is from here, the rest of us come from frigid northern climes on the eastern seaboard or middle of the country. While South Florida is mostly recognized as being the sixth borough of due…
For years, Steve Martorano did what he wanted to at Cafe Martorano. The restaurateur/cook served food his way without substitutions (which is clearly noted on the menu), didn’t take online reservations, closed the restaurant for a much-needed summer break, and spun tunes when the mood struck. The restaurant has reopened…
Evolution is a wonderful thing. Wolves that want to eat us turn into dogs that want to love us and we go from cavemen to humans who eat everything else. Simple isn’t it? We like our foods to evolve too. Take, for example the “cronut”, which is the natural evolutionary…
In 24 years, Bimini Boatyard has seen a pair of owners, a handful of chefs, unknown dozens of million-dollar yachts bouncing up in the harbor, and more cheesy engagement photos than you can shake a stick at. Through it all, the perfect views, cool iced teas, and sweet Bimini bread…
No one is really sure why the heads of companies continue to espouse exceedingly unpopular, even bigoted opinions. No one is arguing they don’t have every right to both their opinion and to espousing it, of course. But then, the public also has every right to not buy your product…
Clematis Street is stuffed with great happy hour deals and customers scouring to find the best. Among them is Kabuki, the street’s only sushi restaurant with an extra flair for great drinks. This recipe has proved to be so successful for owner Ting, he’s taking his chances at replicating the…
We are a long way away from MetLife Stadium, but New York transplants don’t plan on trading the Jets anytime soon. And if they did, it certainly wouldn’t be for the Dolphins — not after Dan Marino’s dirty Fake Spike play in 1994. Over 500 strong, the South Florida Jets…
Throughout the rest of the country, summer tends to be thought of as barbecue season. As is the case with so many other things in Florida, grilling season is kind of backward. Who the heck wants to stand around hot coals when it’s 100 degrees and muggy as hell? Only…
When the Boyds opened their quaint, French-inspired eatery Mustard Seed Bistro, they underestimated the potential of Lara’s baking because it was her husband, Tim, who was at the culinary helm whipping up bison tenderloins or tomato risottos with mushrooms. But within the first year, Lara began to experiment with recipes…
Another week in beer news: You need it like you need another pint of stout. So order up, chug, and repeat until you reach that moment of clarity. If you’re just not that into it, then stick to wine coolers and get bent. Shit’s getting crazy in beer land with…
By now, you’ve probably heard about cronuts. Or kronuts. Or dossants. For those who don’t keep up with the latest news on dessert trends, the cronut is the puggle of food items. The Cronut™ was created in New York at the Dominique Ansel Bakery and was gifted unto the world…
Things seem to be getting a little frisky again at Feelgoods Rock Bar and Grill in downtown West Palm Beach as the manager was assaulted last Thursday and the suspect led off to jail. According to the police report, Feelgoods bouncers were escorting a man, identified as Michael Elias Salha,…
Here we are, yet again: another month, another spending bill down the drain. Today the federal government has officially shut down — well, “nonessential” programs, at least — which will affect a wide range of services, from the National Institutes of Health to the National Park Service to the Department…
Pumpkin spice fever is like syphilis. It’s contracted easily, spreads quickly, and symptoms include a zombie-like stampede for the antidote: anything containing the rotund orange fruit (yes, pumpkin is a fruit) and that blend of cinnamon-y spices.

Are you a frustrated attorney who thinks he knows food better than the chef at his favorite restaurant? Or maybe you’re a blogger who turns her home into a test kitchen? In any event, if you’re a home cook who’s obsessed with food, it’s time to prove you’ve got MasterChef…
October is a month that celebrates many things: Halloween, apples, cranberries, cookies, chilli, vegetarian awareness, and plenty of other not-so important options. You will, however, be noticing a bunch of pink popping up all over town — and no, it’s not National Legally Blonde Month or anything along those lines…
Downtown Fort Lauderdale is the home to the second Broward County Tilted Kilt Pub & Eatery location. The restaurant is the newest addition to the celtic-themed chain which featured 36 varieties of beer on tap, 80 flat screen televisions, and, or course, Kilt Girls. See also: Tilted Kilt: New Brestaurant…
We’re not really sure who’s to blame for the proliferation of all things pumpkin. Is it Starbucks and their uber popular seasonal specialty coffee, the Pumpkin Spice Latte. Or is Shipyard and Dogfishead and their Pumpkinhead and Punkin brews, respectively? Or, is there perhaps something more sinister at play here?…
Employment opportunities may still be a little scarce, but the new Cabo Flats Cantina and Tequila Bar opening at the Delray Marketplace is going to need some hired hands to run things. The company is currently looking to fill about 100 positions in all: 40 kitchen and 60 front-of-house jobs…
