Tucked in a suburban strip mall, this modest Vietnamese restaurant offers an extensive list of authentic dishes in a bright, spartan dining room, coupled with friendly, efficient service. Go for a refreshing starter, such as spring rolls in rice paper, stuffed with pork, pickled vegetables, and cilantro. Or if you’re inclined, segue right to a […]

The Seminole Truck Stop, located at the far western part of Broward County at the edge of the Everglades, is “in the middle of nowhere,” as owner Juan “Chuchi” Daniel admits. But throughout the week, hundreds, if not thousands gather here for various late night parties under an out-of-place tiki hut. Endless rows of bikes […]

Sisters are great at many things – trading clothes, doing each others’ hair, scheming against Dad for later curfews, and, naturally, the occasional cat fight. But they may just be best at making subs. Home of the “Big Sister” – a six-foot Italian hoagie stuffed with ham, Genoa salami, cappicola, cheese, and a host of […]

Start with protein (crispy, hand made falafels, fresh grilled chicken breast, shaved turkey shawarma, or thick slices of beef shish kebab), choose a bread type (pillowy lafa or warm, fresh pita), and fill it with any of a […]

Anyone with a modicum of skill can take a dry-aged, 24-ounce prime rib eye and render it edible; that the chefs at Taurus Steakhouse can take unconventional cuts and bits of steer and transform them into something greater through spice, flame, and nearly 40 years of accumulated technique is a thing of beauty. This Peruvian […]
Yes, it’s your neighborhood strip-mall falafel shop, a humble abode with posters of Tel Aviv on the walls and fresh Middle Eastern fare on the menu. Full dinners are available, including lamb chops, whole fish, and T-bone steak, but Tel Aviv is most satisfying as a soup, sandwich, and salad-bar experience. A mild-mannered homemade split-pea […]
With a packed house on a Saturday afternoon and a neon “Hong Kong Style Dim Sum” sign on the front, Toa Toa Chinese restaurant in Sunrise offers the full array of buns, dumplings and fried classics. Items here are ordered off of a checklist menu rather than the traditional steamer pushcart. We think the a […]
Austin Powers may claim to be the man who put the “grrr” in swinger, but he has nothing on the guys who own the Trapeze Club, which sends whatever image you may have of a swingers’ club out the window. Behind its bland storefront are plush surroundings that make the Trapeze the Ritz-Carlton of “alternative-lifestyle” […]
Our version of the national South Indian chain, Udipi serves exotica like the mildly sour iddly, steamed rice and bean-flour cakes dipped in yogurt/coconut chutney and lentil sauces; the vada, fried lentil doughnuts; and paneer pakoras, fingers of homemade cheese in chickpea sauce.
