There's a good chance you've had your fill of burgers and beer after this weekend's events. If you didn't put yourself in a food coma at Friday's Burger Bash, we'll assume you drank yourself silly at Saturday's Funky Buddha Grand Opening.
Hey, that's why Sundays exist. Whether you partied it up or just sat on the couch, it's time to rally. It's a new week and we have even more food and drink related events coming up in Broward and Palm Beach.
