Well gawsh darn. This week was a great one on Clean Plate Charlie. We shared laughs. We shed tears. We ate a lot of food. Check out what you missed below.

• Morton cooks for who? Oh, for us.

• "Mi amore, take me to El Zocalo!"
  

• My trip to Key West yields three great restaurants with their doors still open, even in slow-as-molasses September.

• In this week's Love Bites, Riki wonders if a hot-shot doctor is out of her league. To that I say, "Impossible!"

• I gotta be honest, folks: Brett just hasn't been the same after eating that heaping spoonful of mango kuchela. Is it normal for a human to pant?

• Next time you're drunk and stumbling around Fort Lauderdale at night, looking for a piece of pie, check out these two pizza joints.

• Candy is dandy, but bourbon barrel aged liquor is sooo much quicker.

• "I'm gonna give you to the count of five, before I pump your ugly, yella, no good guts full for sausage," says the Meatist.

• New Times' Pairings was actually a totally successful food smorgasbord, and we're not just saying that.
