At the west end of Himmarshee Street, just across from Old Fort Lauderdale Breakfast House, the interior of Taps is worlds apart from the rest of downtown Fort Lauderdale. To the left, a tufted charcoal bench runs the length of the room beneath a solid wood wall of crisscrossing panels…
McDonald’s has created some new American-based sandwiches, including a new Florida beef sandwich. They only catch? So far, they’re available only in France.

Courtesy of Universal OrlandoThere are so many wonderful aspects within the Harry Potter universe — duh, there’s magic! — but one of the most satisfying things is the food. Throughout the novels, author J.K. Rowling fabricates her fair share of magical creatures as well as delectable, wizardy food. Though we…
Here’s a tough one to analyze. On one hand, West Palm Beach’s kitschy and charming Antique Row neighborhood will lose a building that’s suited for the environment’s décor, and on the other, a hazardous road condition could be improved. 412 Avenida Alegre, located behind the Dunkin’ Donuts on 3501 S…

Well, we did it, Florida: Medical marijuana has been signed into law by Gov. movie villain Rick Scott. While it’s not time to pull the bongs out just yet — the bill allows only the use of a noneuphoric strain (it won’t get you high) to treat certain diseases –…
Lunch, the ubiquitous time of day that can sometimes be more of a lingering question than a meal. Where to go that will satisfy everyone in your increasingly hungry party? Healthy, sure. Fast, that goes without saying. Both at the same time? Dream big. Well, that’s exactly what Amange Foad…
Eat the Tea’s moniker is an instructional one. At this charming, Victoria Park-adjacent café, noshing on the remnants of your drink is part of the process. But if this inspires a cringe-worthy visual (like the contents of a Lipton’s tea bag), don’t fret. The blends steeped by this tea house…
Four people were injured yesterday afternoon when a driver crashed his Honda Accord through the window of Fort Lauderdale’s Heart Rock Sushi right in the middle of lunch hour…

Warning: This is not your daddy’s doughnut shop. Chunks of crisp caramelized applewood bacon crown a glazed round of dense yet fluffy dough. Hidden from the eye is a filling of handmade maple custard boiled down nightly from fresh vanilla beans and real maple syrup. Rainbow-colored M&M’s and smooth chocolate…
Stocks at record highs right now and it looks like we’re about to enter the greatest bull market in the last 85 years. That’s great for those who are playing: bad for anyone who wants to get in. For those looking to try their hand at the ticker, Bull Market…
Ice cream is one of the world’s greatest pleasures. In fact, we love it so much we may or may not have had a tab at the local parlor as a kid. While most of us try not to eat the icy lactose-filled treat often due to dietary concerns, there…
Happy national iced tea day! Yes, friends, another silly holiday — with a great perk attached to it. According to the Tea Association of the USA , Americans drank over 79 billion servings of tea (that comes out to about 3.6 billion gallons of the golden liquid). And how do…

When you’re a guest — either at a party or on a talk show — it’s always nice to bring a gift. Apparently, Jon Favreau got the etiquette memo, because when he stopped by Conan O’Brien’s show to talk about his new movie Chef, he brought a dime bag…of brisket…
The local, sustainable, whole food mission is a growing trend. If it isn’t fresh, organic or GMO-free, most of us aren’t buying it. And the same holds true for a few big food chain operations like Chipotle — which vowed earlier this year to serve “food with integrity” as it…
