Foot Farewell

Farewells to Footie's may not be fond, but hey, at least they're farewells. The eatery marqueed by Y-100 (WHYI-FM 100.7) morning radio personality Footie has morphed into Jensen's American Grill (8320 W. Sunrise Blvd., Plantation, 954-423-1610.)

Farewells to Footie's may not be fond, but hey, at least they're farewells. The eatery marqueed by Y-100 (WHYI-FM 100.7) morning radio personality Footie has morphed into Jensen's American Grill (8320 W. Sunrise Blvd., Plantation, 954-423-1610.) The décor has changed slightly to reflect a more sports-oriented theme, but folks loyal to Footie's signature wings will be relieved to know that the menu remains largely the same. Now that the numbers of autograph-hopeful hounds have significantly dwindled, allowing for families to actually eat with their kids at a reasonable dinner hour, we can only hope that the management will have more time to spend on quality control than crowd control.
